Hi again,
I’d love to hear some feedback.
Do you practice these or similar drills in your classes? What are you thoughts?
Looking forward to some serious discussions

Hi Marcus
As always, thanks for the update notice for your website. I think you guys have the most comprehensive multi-media stuff going. You’re generous to do all the work in putting it out there, and for continuing to invite discussion.
As you know from some of our prior exchanges, the way that I practice is very different from how you guys approach the art - by about 180 degrees. Some of the differences are so fundamental, even down to the basic system of movement, that compare and contrast on a “technique” level would be superfluous at best. So for my part, it’s not a lack of wanting to discuss, and I’m definitely not ignoring you. It’s more that there is no clear basis for comparison that would promise ROI for either of us. I’ll let you know if think of something though. 
Despite my “not knowing where to start,” thanks nonetheless for all your efforts in sharing. I’m sure there are many out there with an approach closer to yours who may chime. So keep reminding them.
Regards,
Mr Lo
i checked out the techniques section, looks good! Actually, at the WFH tourney in NJ i met up w/Mun Hung & we had a hands on exchange of techniques. Actually, it was more like, I punched, and he hurt me..HAHA!! seriously though, i’ll be coming down sometime soon hopefully to sit in on a class or two once i can get back to Mun Hung(and once my wife lets me out the house!!! 
)

Time to get nasty!
Do you really think this guy is ready for the knives? …he should be taught SLT first!
S.Teebas
That wasn’t so nasty…
Who am I to second guess my SiFu? ;)You inferred quite a lot from one picture. What is it you see (or don’t see) that leads you to your conclusion?
I’m sure others on the forum would appreciate the open discussion also. 
Take care,
Marcus

Abstract
Hey Abstract,
I’m glad you enjoyed our site and hope you found it informative.
Mun Hung said you’re really cool dude. From what I heard, you guys had a great time. I’m sure you were able to show him a few things also
Its too bad that events like these are few and far in between.
Take care,
Marcus

structure

His structure? Please elaborate.
Comments
I notice that your group uses different kinds of shin/foot guards when sparring. Which ones have you found to be effective?
As to the videos and photos, there are some, where the person counter attacking is leaning very far backwards (almost Jackie Chan like) while countering with their own kick.
The idea seems to be to lean backwards out of the way, yet in some respects that appears counter to general WC principles of structure and would leave you open to being pushed back to the ground.
I mention this not to attack what you are doing, but to inquire into your teacher and Duncan Leung’s ideas on why to approach things from that perspective.
Leaning Back photo
I mean like this photo:

Leaning back
I am wondering if that is the kind of leaning Roy D. Anthony was advocating in the bong sau thread.
Can there really be so many forms of wing chun? At what point does it become not-wing-chun?
Is this going to respark the 60/40 vs 50/50 thing again?
-stance is too wide
-back heel is not planted (if my eyes do not fail me)
-back foot not rooted
-front foot not rooted
-front foot alignment is not relating to back foot
-neither knee is not over toes
-no sinking exists because of all of the above
-shoulers are forward
-arms are too straight, and therefore not mobile
-alignment of wrists is off
-spine is curved forward as a result of below
-head is forward
-face is not relaxed
-no intention exists
-no conviction
-no spiral energy
-no intertwining of yin/yang energy
btw I do enjoy the pictures and videos. You’ve done a nice job with the website
Planet Wing Chun - currently, we use heavy duty type shin guards made in Germany by a company named Kwon. We also use all kinds of different ones underneath such as styrofoam, fiberglass Soccer shin guards, or cloth padding for added protection. It’s neccesary since we play pretty rough.
As far as leaning back is concerned - it’s really not my place to say. But what I will state is that it would be most difficult trying to describe something that should only be seen and felt by both parties to be truly appreciated. Pictures just don’t do justice for some things.
Kathy Jo - I’m pretty sure that what Roy D. Anthony was talking about with bong sau is entirely different. Do you ever travel to NYC? Please visit us if you do.
cowboy - what is “real” Wing Chun anyway? Can it be only what we think it is or know it to be? Is there an ancient hardbound rulebook somewhere?
Whip - could you please post a picture of it done properly so that we may all learn from it.
Mun Hung, thanks for your reply
Sorry to post my reply here, but your email bounced. I rarely ever get to NYC, but will let you or Marcus know if I ever do and there’s a chance to connect. Thanks for the welcome.
Regards,

Is this because you dont know? This is not a personal attack, but THE most important thing in WC is to understand WHY you do the things you do.
Maybe you teacher teaches structure idea after a few years of training…i dont know! Pretty much what whipping hand said indicates that this guy in the picture donesnt understand a few things.
Also, in my mind with WC…it either works or it doesn’t.

Sorry, if you took offense. However, the link was posted, the picture was posted, and the question was asked…
