Welcome! You definitely picked an excellent place to join. The system is laid out nicely and there are several other resources at your disposal!
I recommend you join a live class when you’re able and certainly watch the catch up if you’re not able to attend. Just stick with it!💯

I had not read his blog but, I did read it today. Very nice Nick!
And you are absolutely welcome to use the post any way you see fit.
I think Nick’s blog was spot on in many aspects. I agree that there are skeptical people out there that feel learning online is not possible.
That is clearly not an accurate assessment.

If I may inquire further into elbows; in chum kiu, would the first “passive” lan sau actually be a pie jarn because it is in transit?
I only ask to see if I should focus more on my elbow coming around vs presenting my elbow forward.
Clearly I’m focusing on elbows lol.

Awesome! Thank you for the visual answer💯
It’s kinda funny how such a simple question transcends the basic understanding but still remains a basic principle.
Taking a pie jarn to chair pie could be broken down to poon sau. Seems like such an advanced technique yet, we’ve worked on it so much.

Stepping into the bong to simulate movement (as…[Read more]

Good job on taking point on Monday’s class as well! Keep it up brother! And keep them questions coming💯

I’d re-emphasize the point that we are NOT training to do the lap in this exercise. In fact, just about everything from the perspective of the person performing the lap is incorrect.
I think you’re right on with, this being a “drill” and that we wouldn’t just sit there; there will be a follow up attack. The follow up attack being from the…[Read more]

For sure! Jump on the live stream right away.
And welcome!

That’s awesome Michael! I think it’s a great idea.

Enter Sifu: “Simple, tell him to stop getting hit.”

If I’m understanding correctly, instead of the person in Tan Sau performing a Huen Sau to recover center; they are trying to match the force with force.
If that’s correct, I would say that instead of the Fook Sau forcing the change via Huen Sau, I’d allow the attempted matching force to force the change from Fook Sau to Tan Sau via the Huen…[Read more]
