[QUOTE=mvbrown21;1098081] . . . . . . I’m actually curious if any other lineages have this footwork?[/QUOTE]
TWC has lots of footwork that isn’t in the other various lineages I’ve studies through the years.

There is actually a lot of footwork in the VT system, including knife stepping, pole. VT fighters have a lot of movement available to them in all ranges, depending on weapons used.
That would be a good thread to start, a sharing of different footwork from the different lineages. We could all probably learn something. I’ll try to put together a video this weekend of the HKM/Augustine Fong basic footwork this weekend and maybe we can get it started

Agreed. 
Here’s another example from my own video of how bracing can be used. You can see most of my legs at this point in the video but still not my feet but I use a lot of forward and backwards bracing from this sequence till the end of the video. Watch the guy in the white shirt(me:)) and hopefully you guys can see it in application.
If for some reason the time url doesn’t work right just go to 6:47 in the video

Here’s a video I put together showing the HKM/Augustine Fong way of doing some of the basics
Footwork including bracing is at the end
