I am not responsible for promoting this competition in the US, so their are maybe some questions I cant answer, but as far as I can I try my best.
If I used the wrong Subforum for my topic I do apologize.
[QUOTE=David Jamieson;1104841]Is it an all forms format?
No san da?[/QUOTE]
Concentrating on forms. Its about doing the forms not in a performance way for good looking, instead showing the characteristic a Traditional Form should develop, like rooting, develop power through the hole body or depending on system empty chest or using power through the Back.
[QUOTE=bawang;1104856]how is this traditional[/QUOTE]
Its traditional because you should show all the characteristics the form should pose. The judges who are all longtime Gung Fu practitioners are there to guarantee that, also teachers from the specific Martial Art will help.
Experience has shown thats not that simple for contestants that they do it not good looking instead doing it fully concentrated as they been taught. Also to come to the point where mind and body walk as one.

Don’t you want to get recruited for the Fallen Dumb Fa cult? You get to stop thinking, can enter a philosophy that makes scientology look smart, you get to be a mini racist, oh the fun!
the sad thing is, from the perspective of classical qigong practice, what they do is actually not bad at all; it’s the batsh1t-crazy stuff that they superimpose on top of it that becomes problematic…
