    "From a psychological point of view, demons represent the universal equivalents of the dark, cruel, animal depths of the mind. When we as martial artists are preparing ourselves to overcome our fear of domination at the hands of an opponent, we must go deep within our inner being and allow the darkest parts of ourselves to be revealed. In order to battle the monsters in an abyss, we must sometimes unleash the demon within" http://darkwingchun.wordpress.com/

    I was wondering how he held the pole but then noticed the mechanism/attachment on the rear hand. Quite inspirational.

    I had a funny thought watching it all though. "He looks like a blond WSL"! What with his moustache and short-ish hair.

    Philipps can do things better with one hand than most can do with two. It needs to be seen to be believed. I'm thankful he is my Teacher as he opened my eyes to Ving Tsun moreso than anybody previous.

    You are not the only person to point out his likeness to WSL.......maybe not so much looking but definately the way he moves. These thoughts are shared by many in Europe who trained under the man himself.

    Inspirational it is!!!!

    I, too, enjoy watching Bayer.

    I personal find it very inspiring to watch him perform WC with high efficiency WITH a 'handicap.' Anytime anyone overcomes something like that deserves lots of respect - and he's got mine.

    Best,

    And it shows it's not all about grabbing, being "limited" because of gloves (can't lap sau etc). Where there is a will there is a way.
