[QUOTE=wtxs;1012915]I feel like Rip van Winkle just woke up from an thousand years snooze, I swear this thread is about the possible WC connection to the crane/snake. For sure that I and many other would rather like to hear more about it. ;);)[/QUOTE]
For sure there is a connection of snake and crane to wing chun, I think it’s establishing the mechanics behind it that has steered the thread.
From what I gather so far, the building process to include the snake alone requires you to know from the beginning what you’re building. A four wheeled drive vehicle has become the comparison to our humble human frame.
The crane hasn’t really been talked about much, and feels left out.
Anyways, I have to agree that the qi (chi/hei) ignition and cultivation plays a very important role in the wing chun students development. From the beginning and perpetually thereafter!
How so?
Well, that’s all for debate imo as everyone must have something better to offer than this :eek:

[QUOTE=TenTigers;1012941]Hendrick-how does your ch’i-gung affect sexual performance? You’ve no doubt heard of the Pa Kua master who used to frequent a brothel and satisfy every woman in there, without expelling his jing.
So..my gf, after an evening of um, practice…told me, “That’s it! No more of your Ch’i-Gung! You’re killing me!”
(ahem..) ah, yep…so..can your 12 Zhangs do that? :D[/QUOTE]
Bah Rik!
You seem to forget that we are Wing Chun men - a translation for that is “in Praise of Sex”!
You Hung Ga dudes also forget we are Hung men, too! (Pun intended)
[QUOTE=sanjuro_ronin;1012971]Like I said, you didn’t understand a word I wrote. but what else is new with someone that lives in their own little world?[/QUOTE]
it is a technical discussion, there is no point to trying to make personal attack.
ok, back on track boyz.
Hendrick, could you get into the snake and crane aspects of WCK. How do you see the snake manifest? How do you see the crane?
Also, could you provide a bit more history? Like the past generations back (if possible) to the founder?
For sure there is a connection of snake and crane to wing chun, I think it’s establishing the mechanics behind it that has steered the thread.
