Wah Lum Exploration

[Xue Sheng]

Well, even though we did shadow boxing, combos and some round robin work, it was more of a cardio workout. While I do have a cardiopulmonary system, it seems to be largely atrophied

At this point after (over a year of this junk) a fractured heal followed by a torn meniscus in my knee I'm just happy I can walk.

I plan on starting training again the end of this month and after attempting the Yang Long Form I was a mess, but it WILL get better.

Keep working at it and all will be just fine

Ok, so still in a little shock over this one but I was asked to be a part of the school's Dragon Dance team! Practice starts this Saturday, can anyone tell me what to expect? Feeling a little nervous, nauseous, excited, and did I say nervous???

Thanks guys!

Nah... Dragon is easy. Just play follow the leader with the person in front of you. If you do characters (Chinese ideograms) then you have to learn a specific point to be, but otherwise, just follow the leader.

Update: my legs continue to hurt lol

I got through my 2nd sparring class with little incident. A little hyper-focused during the leg capture drill and forgot to watch out for the fist. heheh.

Next week, we begin a shoalin stick form. I'm really anticipating that

On a side note, someone brought Moon Pies to work to share!!!!!!

Also my legs are soon to start hurting agian too. I gouing back to my taiji sifu's class and with any luck my knee will hold up and by this time next week my legs will hurt like hell :EG:

Hi, Featherstone! Welcome to Martial Talk. Thanks for the info

 

[Featherstone]

Thanks thought I had joined several years ago, guess I hadnt hehe

If it helps, after a year of solid training, my legs still shake and hurt

 

[OnlyAnEgg]

'My legs hurt' is my mantra and
'Ow' is my tone.

 

[Featherstone]

chant that to the sound of Tibetan Monks and you have a winner!

 

[Xue Sheng]

So egg....how is the Wah Lum Exploration going

 

[OnlyAnEgg]

It's been a sketchy month for attendance, what with school starting back up as well as the inevitable issue arising; but, it still comes along!

I am nearly 5 months no smorking, behind on my stick form, a punching bag in sparring class and inconsistently practicing between classes. I am guilty, this month, of heavy slacking. I'm looking to change that starting last night.

How's everyone here?

 

[Xue Sheng]

Hmmm...sketchy....let me think ... as to your slacking....

STOP POSTING AND STAND IN MA BU!!!!! :mst:

I'm doing ok and FINALLY able to start training again and glad to see your still at it, still around and still not smoking

 

[OnlyAnEgg]

You need to speak properly to Egg... Wah Lum is Cantonese... not Hua Lin... the term you're looking for is SEI PING MA.

What is this MA BU you speak of slidey tongue?? Because like me... he's being nice, but doesn't understand a word you're saying

You've been corrected... :whip1: Please don't make daddy repeat himself... BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
