Sifu Ward,
Yes I had that lesson bookmarked. The part where I am confused is about the Biu Mar with the 90 degree angles and kicks. Are you lookin for us to do a 90 degree step, and then execute a front kick?

Sifu Ward,
I will check those out to be sure. Basically I need help understanding what you want to see for this part of the assessment:
“Biu Mar with Punches, including 90 degree angles and kicks: 10 reps per side”
I will check those videos out and see if those are what I am looking for.

Sifu Ward,
Absolutely, yes. I’ve never met him. I thought I did, but then I realized the gentleman I met was actually Sam CHAN.

Argh! I just wanted to share a picture, but for some reason I am unable to get the URL for the image itself. Therefore, I hope there is no problem if I share the entire blog post here. I was just trying to share my mentality with you folks, because there are some of you who get disheartened when you are unable to find a training partner or…[Read more]

Sifu Ward,
Thank you, sir.
PS: In case I missed it, did you in fact post a video for what you want us to do in the Biu Mar and Kicks video?

Michael,
What about giving some of your clients Wing Chun lessons? 12 hours is a long day, but…what about extending it by just one hour, and having a Wing Chun lesson after all the personal training is done?

Michael,
I have some tips on this.
If you are married or have a girlfriend, try to get her involved.
Ask friends.
If you have kids, try to rope them into it too.
If all else fails, maybe follow my lead and start a free training group that welcomes people of ALL styles. After all, it really does you no good to stick to practicing nothing but…[Read more]

Sifu Ward,
I have a website where I talk about my training. They gave that instead of my email to contact me. It was mentioned at the very end.

Sifu Ward,
Unfortunately, no. Instead of putting my email up there, they put the website. One thing I notice is that people don’t like to have to take half a million steps to accomplish something. IF they go to my website, then they will just see the website. LOL I am still building it, so they would NOT have seen a way to contact me. I even told…[Read more]

This one. I tried emailing it to you, but I guess it got lost in transit.

That is an excellent idea! Glad I was part of the inspiration for it! 🙂

Sifu Ward,
I think I am starting to get the hang of it. It’s just that extra piece coming off the back of the handles that gets in my way, it seems. Maybe I know someone who has the tools to cut off that little excess part…

Of course! Take your time. Like I said, I won’t be able to finish all the videos in time for this round, so I am in no rush.

Sifu Ward,
I was amazed when I went to a RENAISSANCE Festival, which is supposedly about European culture, and found a pair of Wing Chun Knives! I plunked down my money without a second thought, brought them home, and started working on the Knife form. However, I ran into a problem when it came to Section 6. That is where you start to flip the…[Read more]

I will definitely make an effort to keep an eye on it.
Speaking of watching out for things, did you get the link I sent you to the news piece about my group?

Sifu,
I AM in the group. However, I am so busy that I hardly check anything on there. LOL Basically I use Facebook as a more reliable way to text people, since it seems many folks I know use Messenger now more than their phone’s built-in text feature.

Sifu Ward,
In the “basic solo training” section, it says we should do Biu Mar with Punches, including 90 degree angles and kicks.
I understand most of that, but I am not clear on what you want to see when we do Biu Mar with kicks. Are we in our fighting stance, lift the leg for a front kick, put it down, and then stepping? Are we stepping with a…[Read more]
