Thank you, I’ll take a look

You have answered both my questions
Thanks buddie

Hi Marquis,

I was trying to find your original message where you mention not being able to find section 7, well I typed ‘Dummy 7’ into the search and it took me straight to it, but it was actually in 11.1 for some reason?

When I get a chance I will move this but first need to run some things passed our tech guy.

Hope you get this and thank you…[Read more]

No problem, I’ll look forward to it. 🙂

Thanks for the reply.
I agree it’s a funny feeling but I’ve been trying to find a way.

An interesting video, and I love the ‘Gameboy’ graphics.

I haven’t watched it all but I think I see your question, unfortunately, I could NOT see, his legs, so I cannot fully comment on what’s going on there.

Wow!! I don’t know how I missed that blog in the past. But that was such great information. Thank you so much Si-Fu! It really cleared up a ton of things for me. It’s funny I had no questions for the last 2 years. I was just training and learning by doing. But now I’m at the stage where I’m looking for understanding of what I’m doing. And this is…[Read more]

Thanks Lee, good to know you’re still with us. 🙂

This may also help a little Marquis,

The Secret Of The Dummy

Excellent advice, and 100% correct. 🙂

Lee, I just looked at Module 7.8 as you referenced and you are correct. Si-Fu says on the bong Sau our wrist should be in center when practicing on the wooden dummy. Which is why we use the blade edge and not the forearm. Thank you my friend! Your always very helpful and usually the first to answer my questions haha. Hope you are well with your…[Read more]

Hi Marquis

I Will take a shot at the answer.

Because you are in a turned stance, or the destination of the finished bong. Therefore the incoming punch has been moved off centre with the bong and the turn. Without the turn the punch stays on the face.
