Sifu Colin Ward replied to the topic On Cross-training in the forum Members Forum 4 years, 6 months ago
I often followed the idea that you cannot serve two masters (disciplines), although my thoughts on this have changed over the years.
Wing Chun to me is a natural understanding of your body and of the arts, therefore I do believe that we use it as a blueprint for all other styles.
If you remind me on Monday, I will make a video blog on this for…[Read more]

Sometimes it is nice to be able to repair an opponent after you have just destroyed them, joking aside though, there does tend to be an interest develop in those who decide to look after themselves through the arts, to want to take it further.
Often I find that this is just to acquire a deeper understanding of what you are doing already???

Sifu Colin Ward replied to the topic Kicks vs Kicks in the forum Members Forum 4 years, 6 months ago
This does happen, but we must never assume or train ‘to do it’ (or you may be in for a shock when it doesn’t work), it is as you say, more of an intuitive reaction that may or not be lucky.
I did this very thing last night in class against a kick but I too believe this was down to luck.
Although I did see him going for a kick and in turn,…[Read more]

I’m guessing the time now for you is, 8.15pm?
The time in the UK right now is 19.15, I just googled the time there to show the difference.
You will need to be joining the livestream classes at 8.00pm your time (20.00hrs), is this when you tried to join last time?

You are too kind my friend.
Where are you based and what time is it there now, from this info I will try to work out what time you need to join us from where you are.
Thank you.

Hi Mohamed, and welcome to the family!
Sorry for any delay but I’ve been away teaching.
I have approved your request for the FB group, as for the livestream, are you able to view the catchup?
If it is just the live class you had trouble with, did you remember about the change of time, it’s just that at the weekend our clocks changed?

Hi Paolo,
Yes I did get it thank you but the time is not yet for 13 days?
I am surprised you say the upload window has gone?
Thank you for letting me know and I will look into this, and I will start watching the assessment videos shortly, thank you again.

HEY!
Happy Anniversary!
Yes that’s right, basically just a set of 10 for the singles, 3’s and 5’s etc. and as for all the other solo elements, pretty much the same thing, ten is fine with no need to do anymore than that.
Hope this helps?

Thank you for such kind words..
‘Thanks for constantly pointing the way. I can see how learning the wing chun βalphabetβ slowly gives way to becoming a fluent author.’
Wow!
Can I quote you on that?! π -

Glad we had a chance to go over the stuff tonight in class too, keep up the good work.

Hi Nick,
Overall, very good. But you don’t want to hear that, you want to know where and how it may be improved, so here we go with some quick fire bullet points.
Sec 1
Tok sau and palms, make this 6 moves not seven, by this I mean do not take time over the prepping for the palms (I’ll show you in class).

Sifu Colin Ward replied to the topic Ipman vs Mike Tyson? in the forum Members Forum 4 years, 7 months ago
Impossible to answer really but at the same time, anyone could beat Tyson given the right set of luck.
Meaning that… if you managed to Biu him in the eyes and then constantly attack for areas such as the knees and groin then… maybe, but if he got the first one in on you, or me, or Ip Man, then I have no doubt that would be the end of…[Read more]

Sifu Colin Ward replied to the topic Biu Gee (8 sections)? in the forum Members Forum 4 years, 7 months ago
Hey Nick,
I have never thought of Biu Gee having 8 sections and it would seem as though we are just ‘finding’ 8 to make it fit (but then again isn’t that what people did in the dummy form? (108 moves plus 8 kicks LOL)).
Sifu has always referred to Biu Gee as having the elbows… and the rest, also with your method we still have to add the…[Read more]
