You are so welcome my friend. 🙂

Nabarun,

Wow, what can I say, but thank you.
Thank you for such kind words, that actually had me quite moved.

I am SO lucky to have found such amazing people across the world, all with a similar interest and with such good hearts.

I realise now that this, this site, this group, this is something I will never give up.

Thank you everyone for…[Read more]

Hi Marquis,

The notes below will be simply what I write AS, I watch, therefore they may seem sketchy, here goes…

Punches need to drive from the wrist, allowing there to be a delay on the knife catching up
when trapping the pole there is no need to rotate the blades inward, they already are through the fist shape (should you think of these as…[Read more]

Great to see you last night Howard, and I must add, REALLY well done.

Both you and Paul nailed it, and, opened a new direction in training for everyone else, an unknowingly terrific contribution.

See you next week hopefully, and keep practicing.

Hey Nick,

First of all, thank you for sharing that, very nice.

There is a top tip tp add to this and it is mainly that, usually when there is a problem, the source of that problem often occurred three moves before, I can address this later tonight in details, either through class or via a video answer.

To your question:
I am guessing that you…[Read more]

Hi Howard and welcome to the family!

I see you’ve met Lee and Nick, top guys, after you’ve found you way around, let me know if there’s anything you need, oh and have you joined the FB group too?

Hi Nick,

First of all, thank you for sharing this with us all, it is SO important that you be open with any concerns, this way allowing yourself to find the answers and move forward, rather than the alternative of possibly just giving up.

This goes for everyone, if there is anything worrying you, you can either share it with the group and let me…[Read more]

Thank you Nick,

Please forgive my delay Jagdish.

100% regarding the first Lan in CK being a pie jarn too, and so easy to see an application within this visual I think.

Hey Duanne,

Check out tonights’ class. 🙂

See me tonight, and yes.

Hey Duanne,

Pretty much this is the same elbow for both, the only difference being that of the stance/weight distribution.

In regards to there being a difference in the Biu Gee form (pre Ip Man), I think there was a slighter angling of the second strike in order to show ‘SOME’ difference between the Kup and the Gwoi, even though the stance was…[Read more]

Hi Guys!

Interesting question Lee, and a great answer Duanne.

Regarding the “Techniques in the forms are a story board set up for convenience” you are 100%
Regarding the Bong itself, a bong is a bong, as it is only the description of a shape.
Regarding the use of the Bong???

This can be simplified in to two areas, hard or soft (a low bong is…[Read more]

Bless you Stevie, that is so very kind of you.

Looking forted to seeing you again soon in class for a hug. 🙂

Now where are my kids… it’s time for their beating.

As long as your feet are not turning out, then you should be ok.

The turning in initially is gain comfort with how we redirect force, but once this is understood, we can relax the need to be SO turned in.

I did a post on this recently I think, wonder if I can find it for you…

Let me know how you get on please?

‘Everything else idling’

I do like that!

Correct, 100%

Your approach to finding the answer is good, you are right to seek clarification if uncertain (and even then so).

I must admit that this question made me chuckle slightly in all honesty, because of your experience (and yet asking such a basic question), and yet it is exactly the kind of questioning that will undoubtably put you above…[Read more]

Exactly, 100% correct.
