how do you ankle pick? it not really a single leg is it?

hi jmr what really helps is if you do 4 things- 1) really track and record your training and rolls. keep a journal or video diary and recording of your rolls. use it to reflect on what you learn, what you like, and dislike and struggling with. When you can really track things then you can tell...

Oh stop the griping. BJJ was made by bunch of Mayan Aliens [emoji89] [emoji1787] Sent from my SM-T860 using Tapatalk

hi guys! i loooovvveeee bjj so much. so i was having a great roll last week but i got pinned by a pretty big brown belt. He was pretty big around 240lbs or so. And he put knee on belly right below my solar plexus. I flexed my abs and gritted through it- managed to shrimp out and stuff...

I am learning from sifu Anton Miller Kwok Wan-Ping -> Chun Ming Lee -> Alton Miller Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

Thanks guys. I will try to ask my teacher tonight if I can make it to class or on Saturday. In my school we cover some basic drills like 3 star punch and pak gam tan drill and punching and stance work. We did do some basic shifting. And I notice it is in some ways similar to taiji. (I used to...

I don't mean any offense by it. Geezer. I am currently training under yuan kay shan lineage but am still only beginner. I am not really sure about the foot work in wing chun and that is why I ask the op questions. There definitely is a lot of stance work though - Zhang Zuang Sent from my...

Sounds like Bruce Lee bai zhong stance with the raised rear heel Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

So how exactly does wing chun footwork work? Is there any footwork really in wing chun? Most of it seems like just the arms. How do you move and close the gap or make room in wing chun? Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

I am planning on going to Beijing China and Taiwan around April. And I was wondering if there are any good wing chun schools I can check out there. Does anyone have any recommendations? Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

Eric. Fajin refer to instantaneous power issuing. Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

.... I think you kinda missed the entire point of what is being shown. During a fight you don't really see forms being done in such a wide angle nor people standing there prepping for each strike like they do during a board break demo. Things become a lot more compressed definitely during...

So I am coming from a taiji background. How does taiji and wing chun fajing differ and compare? Both are quite substantial. Other high level martial arts systems from xing yi to systema also have their own fajin Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

So why does wing chun train with such a weird stance? What is the function of the low horse stance like this with the weird pigeon toe? Why not use the traditional standard horse stance? Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

Hi kpm. Thank you for the info. I kind of come from a taiji background. What do you mean by "floating Kua"? Do you have any like books lectures or articles etc more on the matter? In taiji a core part of ones power is from using ones Kua. I do not quite understand the distinction between...

Hi. The teacher was from the cheung bo and yuen Kay san lineage. And the stance I was shown the first class was called Yee Jee Kim Yeung Ma Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

Hello folks. I just had an intro lesson today on wing chun and they had me do the I guess base stance. I forgot what it's called lol. Why is the stance so pigeon toed with feet pointing inwards? I feel my Kua (Chinese for inner thigh and hips/dantoen area) kinda close when the feet turn inwards...

Hi jr. So my century freestanding bag has a base that I filled with about 200lbs sand. (Filling that thing is a lot of work lol) Can you recommend any gloves in particular? Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

I will probably do that and try out a pair of mma gloves. If that doesn't work then I will get a nicer pair gloves. Has anyone here tried fairtex before? Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

Ok so I do not want to damage and break my hands firstly. I do want to learn and train in like some kickboxing and particularly wing chun. The main focus of these gloves i want to get is for heavy bag work and for relieving some pent up explosive energy. The last thing I want is to stupidly...

yes that is true JowGaWolf. Good form is indeed important. But at same time, sometimes you just really want to wail on a bag you know? I bought a freestanding century heavy bag. And been using my training/weight lifting gloves while hitting it but my skin just kind of starting to get scraped. I...

Hello So I am looking for a good heavy bag glove to get. I have this strong urge to really go at a heavy bag especially after long day at work. I want some glove to protect my hands but also be durable, last me for years, and be 'comfortably snug' My hand is about 8.5" around the knuckles. I...
