Anyone pass the choreography stage? Anyone able to pull more out and take its teachings and apply to other skills for live play?

I’m currently putting SLT into Chum kiu. First experience shared root wasn’t there as well as wrong body mechanics in generating energy. Turning gotta be accomplished with the waist…[Read more]

I cannot simply accept what is given without scrutiny. I apply this to all within my life as I focus on understanding deeper than surface level, as majority of individuals wish to remain. There have been very rare occasions that a…[Read more]

Nick brought up a great idea and it had connected with my own training.

While studying the content, I noticed the emphasis on the three directions. I quite agree on there being three, but what I found puzzling is an emphasis on directional expression. Sifu Ward contributes the directions to the…[Read more]

I’m not shifting forward to move backwards. I’m struggling to move backwards with this half step as majority of weight is on a single leg.

As for the term rhythm, I’m aware and agree on your description. However I seem to use an improper description. I am referring to the pace of the drill.…[Read more]

The increase of weight on the back foot is demanding an increase of effort to move. There is a “stiffness” experienced creating a large delay in what is to be executed.

So long as the drill’s rhythm is slowed, this issue is absent. However when…[Read more]

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.

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.

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]

Youre absolutely right in poor habits trained will develop poor responses and reactions. Even so much to create opportunities for getting yourself hurt.

The rest is reflective of me keeping to myself as the answer resides in actual physical touch. Much of what I see is confusing. This is due to I’m not presented with a real stimulus.

I’m looking at the assessment rubric and I notice the need for a partner. Pulling reference to the virtual classes, he does reactive drills with those in attendance. Maybe this would be his methodology? I’ve never done any of his assessments. All the grading and tests I’ve ever done have been in person.

You’re not to actually turn their hand when engaged in the drill.

The Wu sau acts also as a grab when bridging with their strike so to remove the structure and allow your own strike through.

Of my experience and comprehension, you’re best to perform hand replacement. By actively pulling your forward hand back, you’re causing yourself to train collapsing of your structure.

Because your video only shows your waist…[Read more]
