Nope. That's how we do it too.

Pretty much the same. Tri-poles (aka gerk jongs) are sometimes reserved for later/after weapons...

Same in our branch of the tree, but we teach Biu Jee after the Mook Jong. Is that a before/after thing with DL?

Added the additional form. The added SLT is largely the "regular with some basic footwork added and some other movements that remind me of some mainland SLTs.

Not so in Ip Man's form with good reasons. Advanced slt is Cheung's work.

I am aware that it is exclusive to TWC, in terms of those who were students of YM. I should have added that fact however.

I think my old club only had 3-4 forms. Si Lim Tao was the first, followed by a second which was "18 moves" (can't remember the Chinese name for it), followed by a 2-man-form. I never got to the 4th set. There was a 5th which was performed with a 9 ring broadsword, but I never did weapons training.
That's different. What lineage/branch of WC was that?
I hate single-leg SNT! I have fused ankles with no lateral movement possible--- and that lateral correction is the normal way you maintain static balance on one foot. With much practice at one time I could hold my balance about as well as my lower - intermediate level students. That was when I was much younger and fitter! Eventually I stopped beating myself up over it and focused on gaining functional, dynamic balance and let my Sr. students lead that one-legged form exercise!
Sometimes I will work it alone, holding my toe a few inches from the wall so I can steady myself with my foot touching the wall for a moment if need be, and having the wall close to provide a focus point really helps. That way, at least I can get the conditioning benefits ...but sadly, my static balance is what it is.
In addition to one legged SNT, I do the same thing throughout the CK form.
Our lineage has the back weighted stance, so throughout the CK form when I get to a different stance I raise up to one leg and hold it for several seconds. Going through the entire form like that is a good leg workout. Not to mention when you go back and practice the form in the the normal fashion right after, it has a nice flow to it and the stance is well balanced and very solid.
