Mixing external and internal martial arts?

What on earth is all this crap about?

Pay attention!

Apostol;

Sorry about the confusions.

If you have any questions during your study, there are plenty of good people in the forum more than happy to give you some tips.

However, we are only your friends and not your “teacher”.

We can not and will not take the place of your teacher. That is immoral in the old time in Ancient China.

Study well and have fun.

:cool:

This is ridiculous, to waste Buddy’s time on this ****. Blackbelt - If Buddy told you openly that you have mis-understood his quote, then why don’t you just take it for what its worth? He said it, he clarified it, it is not a debate anylonger, only a ****ing contest.

Also I think he emailed me asking something awhile ago. Didn’t seem to mind my advice then. No good deed goes unpunished.

HAHA!!

CD, How do you talk with your Lipps so close to Buddy’s Butt???:smiley:

Mixing?

My initial response would be NO, dont mix them, however there are some arts that may be of benifit that your IMA training may not cover as comprehensively, such as groundfighting and knife work.

But I think Buddy was right when he said “Why would you want to do this? Xingyi is a great system and does not need wing chun or jeet kune do. Of course maybe you have a teacher who cannot do either justice..”

Or perhaps you dont have enough exp. in Xingyi yet, and need more basics? How long have you been training?

I would also suggest you look into other xingyi teachers in your area, particularly Wai Lun Choi - www.liuhopafa.com he will definately teach you how to fight with the xingyi.

I wouldnt start looking to mix external arts with the internal ones just yet. keep looking at what different schools have to offer, and take a hard look at your own natural abilities, and training habits.

agree…you probbly need some measure of prerequ knowledge in order to balance or you could end up doing more harm than good…

Buddy has good information to share. We should try to learn from him and each other if possible.

pay it no mind…you get intellegent statements like that from time to time and you can spend your time arguing b*tchfight style, or you can just continue the discussion anyway :wink:

You’re right Bloom. I went back and cleaned it up a bit.
