Dose anyone know the advanced wing chun topic (called trapping feet?)
I belive I have a basic understanding,(but its from chi/na stand point)can anyone make this topic more clear?
C.A.G.

Are you saying my name is cool or ish-meal is a cool name?
Chi Gerk
This is something I would like to know more about as well. Can anyone recommend some good reading or a website that may have an article on such?
Of course if you do not know of any, can you please share what you do know about it other than the obvious definition?
Thanks!

The key to understanding is to open your mind and your heart and then the eyes will follow.

Chi sau vs. Chi Gurk
Only one difference.
So we already know that the difference is hand/arm and foot/leg, but does that mean that there is taun gerk, bong gerk, and fook gerk? I can picture what a bong gerk would be like but the others are harder to picture in my mind without compromising your base.

Sounds good martial joe.
Theres a bit of info about this in a ip chun book, i cant remember what it said tho cos its been a while since i read it. Ill check tonight and post again then.
Shapes
As far as I learned, Chi Gerk leg shapes are more like the concepts of the hand shape rather than an ‘image’ of them.
It’s more an expression of the theory

‘wing chun men do it with sticky hands’
The concepts are the same regardless of which tool you are using. Bong gerk, Tan gerk, Fuk gerk, Jut gerk, etc. are all present in Chi Gerk.
You can practice the exercises by yourself to develop your legs and coordination or with a partner to refine your sensitivty and explore the changes. The legs are used to control the lower gate and break structure even if the hands are busy. Eventually, Chi Sau and Chi Gerk are combined in application.

Tan gurk and Bong gurk do exist. I might add that they are not a quick learn. These are used as responses to kicks in the same fashion that the arms would be used against punches.
