Thought you’d be at class today?

Praise? Yes, I guess so. or as I call it, positive and encouraging feedback, something I believe credit where credit is due.
I did not say he was right, the punches were not (yet), but there were many solid qualities that should be recognised, embraced, and utilised.

Regarding pressure etc.
We need to learn to…[Read more]

Thank you so much Sifu, will practice as you suggested, one more thing is every time i revisit the basic punches, I am learning new things( the points i missed before ) . like you said, the force is from elbow,not from wrist. very well said, very well explained. Thank you so much , looking forward for more practice.

Unfortunately, whats seen on the video achieves these. Only moments you’ve given praise, I’ve made the moments extreme. Which will create poor habits. Because I have pressure experience, i am utilizing these sensations to establish appropriate stimuli so I have no guess work.

Here’s the video link Kaylan,

Also look at how and where, my knuckles are landing.

Thank you.

Hello again Kalyan,

I watched your video and there are a few very simple thing we can do to make this work for you, the main thing being ‘If it is not comfortable, it is not right’, so let’s get you there.

As for an earlier comment from Benjamin: ‘To recheck whats being learned, you’ll need a knowledgeable partner’, this is not correct, what y…[Read more]

Hi Benjamin,
Did we meet when I was in Hong Kong with Sifu Ward?
Did I see you at the VTAA?
I have a rubbish memory!!
Kind regards,
Colin

Little correction

Should the punch travel straight forward without the thumb side facing up?

And also to send direct message the captcha isnt working

That would be Sifu Colins. I’m an experienced and knowledgeable WC practitioner.

I hope this message finds you well.

I kindly request that the thread I started on the forum be removed:

Any drills for muscle memory

I now realize the forum is intended for discussing concepts, whereas my post was more of a Q&A. At the time, I wasn’t sure how to reach you directly, but I’ve since dis…[Read more]

@Sifu,

Thank you for your response.
While practicing chain punches, I’ve noticed two different wrist mechanics.

In one method, my wrist lifts slightly during the punch, and at the moment of contact, the bottom three knuckles tend to land. It feels like the wrist pulls back just before impact.

In the second method, I begin the punch with a…[Read more]

I’m confused!!!
Who is the Instructor here?

Hello Kalyan,

Thank you for your questions, I love the honesty.

I am just teaching at the moment but I will get back to you soon with feedback, and don’t worry, I’ve got you, you’re in safe hands, so please feel free to direct your questions directly to me.

Thank you

Sifu

Hi Kalyan,

If a punch was throw (from distance) and you used a Bong, then yes, in that case the Bong Sau is there to block that punch, but as we are already in contact, your Bong is not there to block the punch, it is being used to show you how you react to a Lap Sau being executed, hence the name of the drill, ‘Lap Sau exercise’.

Always happy…[Read more]

Thank you Benjamin, I really appreciate your help,
Could you ping me your link plz..

I have created two punches..which way is correct, plz tell me..:-) i hope you wont say both are wrong

If you could provide a video of your demonstrating the strike, it would clear up a lot of confusion. But I think I grasped your description.

Ive made a post with my doing SLT and you’ll be able to see what I mean regarding the strike.

I know a phenomenal, top notch school in Katy, but thats a ways travel. I’m in Indiana. If youre ever in the state, hit me up.

Regarding the vertical strike, there’s something called Chung di luk, locking position. When you make a fist, bend the wrist by tilting the fist thumb side towards yourself. This will give way for improved shape,…[Read more]

Thank you for response, I am located in Frisco,Texas, United States. Please do let me know if i can meet any one near by.

one more question is , while doing the chain punch or straight punch, is it normal to have a bend at the wrist , right before you hit the target , as we need to hit with last three knuckles, there is a natural bend at the end…[Read more]
