kicks need some work
Fu pow it might not be a bad idea to go back to some basics,maybe even make a point to go back and work on some line basics,looks as if those kicks need a lot of work,nice job anyway
bad basics
Im not one to critisis but people should not put videos of them selfs ON LINE,when it dosent even look like they have gottin all OF the basics down. NOTHING LIKE A VIDEO WITH TERABLE STANCE WORK
I’m not sure what that has to do with a wikipedia article on CLF. But OK… :rolleyes:

Funny, his 1st post also. Apparently, Green Cloud is sending his “minions” on to the forum to come after me.
laughs to self… this is so ghey I can hardly believe it
well ill tell you what it has to do with the article on clf you constintley keep posting these videos of your self like you got something,which just indicates one or too things your a show off or just really inexperienced. By the way who is your sifu
Dear Mr. Troll…crawl back under the rock you came out from under…gack!
Oh BTW, I’m reporting all these totally OT repsonses to the moderator…your days are numbered troll.
I opoligize for that last comment my student was out of line. His comment has nothing to do with this thread. Green cloudTJ means well he is very loyal, but jumped into this Vid stand off that we are having rather hastily or should I say he was a little late we were arguing a few threads ago. Lets just drop it my people are just mad about your nasty comments you made about killing the CTS thread during the discussion about making it a sticky.
fu pow,
don’t be a snitch. handle your business like a man. i’m not in the middle of this but the one thing i hate to see is someone snitching that people are being harsh.
realize you opened yourself up on this forum by posting your form. you should have known that regardless of how good or bad you are you will always suck fat hairly balls because most of these people on here are haters.
but i have to admit that its admirable for Green Cloud to apologize for his students actions. I wonder if he received any hell for what he did.
that reminds me of when Shane Lacey was on the Doghouse morning show in SF, and a hoover chan student (wing Chun) got on the phone and said "my master can beat up your father (vince Lacey…ooops my bad.) and word got back to hoover chan who almost sheet on himself. Hoover chan had to go to the laceys buk sing kwoon to apologize and pour tea for master Lacey.
the very next day a meeting was set up with the guy who made that stupid claim. all of a sudden you can hear someone getting the crap kicked out of him and then shane lacey spout off the chan family 10 rules of conduct.
peace…lets’ keep it .
Frank, that is how you handle trolls ‘like a man’ on the forum. If the mods actually did their job this would be a much better place to discuss kung fu…but I digress.
realize you opened yourself up on this forum by posting your form. you should have known that regardless of how good or bad you are you will always suck fat hairly balls because most of these people on here are haters.
That’s fine if people want to criticize my form…if it is constructive. After I posted my form originally in this southern forum and got comments from you, xtrajoseph, premier and others I thought about some things in my form and how I was approaching training. It actually motivated me to do better and train harder.
However,
-
The criticism I will respond to is constructive. Not “your form is weak” or “those stances suck.” That’s just not helpful and that’s when I stop listening and start asking for credentials, video proof of what you know, etc. If my Sifu told me “you suck” I’d listen if John Doe tells me that I might as well have cotton in my ears.
-
I’ve been interacting with some folks in this forum for many years now and I have a sense of who knows what…even if they might suck in real life. I’m not gonna listen to somebody who is new to the forum without some sort of proof of what you know. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and you can say what you want but expect that if you come after me I won’t lay down for it.
-
Comments about my form, even if constructive (which most are not), belong in a thread about my video which was already posted in this forum and now in the main forum as well.
For these reasons, somebody like greencloudtj who I know nothing about, whose first post is a negative attack on my form and is totally off-topic…can say what he wants… but he has zero credibility with me and I won’t lay down for it.
I’m confident in what I know and what others don’t know. I purposely put the highest level form that I know on the forum even though it might not be my best form. My Sifu has alway told me to challenge myself. When I perform I almost always do the form that I just finished learning or present the biggest challenges for me. That’s how you learn, that’s how you stay motivated…that’s how you get better.
but i have to admit that its admirable for Green Cloud to apologize for his students actions. I wonder if he received any hell for what he did.
I agree my respect for him went up at least 5 1/2 pts.
fu pow,
having a rival who criticizes anything about you instead of taking it personally, use it as ammunition to get better.
I experienced that when i had this one filipino classmate of mine who used to try and make my life miserable. he had a good time doing all that sheet to me, but what he didn’t realize was that i literally took the saying “if it doesn’t kill you it can only make you stronger” to heart. I used that animosity to sharpen up my skills, i didn’t know if i was ever going to have to fight this cat, but i wanted to be ready in case it went down.
i recall i let a wing chun guy place a phoenix fist on my stomach because he was tellling me how he used a certain technique. this class mate of mine used that to attack me everyday when he thought i wasn’t looking or paying attention. he was having a good ol time sneaking a shot at me when i wasn’t looking and then tried to publicly ridicule me.
what he didn’t realize was it actually taught me to be ready at any given notice, instantly. over time i began to easily block his attacks in which he started backing off after that. i guess that where i say my blocking skills are pretty good, because it has saved me from attacks from my classmate.
anyways, if my negative comments towards your form made you look at it in a different light, then you have actually elevated your own personal training. accept all the negative attention and use it to fine tune the parts “they” think you lack.
you are a tall cat. i personally think you need to take a wider stance but not too wide you can’t maneuver properly, but you should see from anothers view point to get better. always be open to get better, and never let yourself think you are at the top. never stop learning. because when you stop learning you get passed by by those who want to continue to grow.
anyways, i think you said when you posted that form you only knew it for 2-3 years i think. that’s not really a long time to perfect that form. you should keep working at it. hell i still work at our very first form (cheung kuen) and still find new things.
you did a good job in your form, just not good enough to think that psycho net ninja’s won’t attack. you know its also because they know they couldn’t do better.
like our Fut San HSK saying goes, never back down from a fight, and fight to win.
frank
Frank seem to have shared some advice from the heart. Good to hear.
Sorry to butt in but I think if the person intent was to insult but disguise it as “critic” then I think defending yourself either verbally (or typing this case) or physically is the same.
I mean yeah you can definitely take all this (even from someone who’s attacking you) and do something good with it, but that doesn’t you don’t defend yourself or position either.
Frank, Iron_Silk,
Thanks for the input. I appreciate it.
So can we get this thread back on track? Did you guys read the wikpedia entry?
You know, you can change it as well that’s the cool thing about wikipedia.
They should put the Lee Koon Hung lineage in a new category called:
Chan Family/Jeurng Yim Lineage.
Peace.
my apologies fu-pow
fu-pow I do apologize for my comments,I was just a little upset for your replys to my sifu a couple of forums ago. my sifu punished me with a 1.5 hours horse stance in the corner of the room while the rest of the room worked out. I had no problem with that,I just have extremley high respect for sifu. non the less sifu gus explaned to me that sometimes the video can distort a persons true abilities,and that it wasn’t clear how tall you really are and the stage was small. So can we please keep the peace:) The dictionary was very informative
style
Has any one heard of lohan chuan fa

Has any one heard of lohan chuan fa and is it a lagit system??
Wow, the respect quotient just went up another 5 1/2 points.
We’re all good.
I do hope to see some of your guys Choy Lay Fut up on web not as “proof” of anything but because I think it represents a somewhat independent branch of CLF. In addition, I’m curious to see how Chan Tai San’s other influences (eg Lama) informed his Choy Lay Fut.
Hopefully we can work towards a more constructive dialogue in the future with more video and more input.
Take care and keep it real.
Peace.
Agree. Others, like Wong Doc Fai would fit in that category too…hybrids, if you will. If you want to change the page you can. I think anyone with basic html knowledge can change the page.
I added Mak Fai to the schools section.
