[QUOTE=taai gihk yahn;1047261]just out of curiosity, why? how?
and who is teaching this? Dr. Painter? is he a licensed healthcare practitioner? if it’s not him, then who? TBH, if it’s not a licensed healthcare practitioner who has spent at least 1,000 hrs. successfully treating people with verified medical diagnoses using this method, I’d be somewhat skeptical of that claim; but that’s just me, I tend to call BS on pretty much anyone who talks about “energy healing” or the like (not saying this is energy work, but it sounds like it is in that realm)…[/QUOTE]
The funny thing is, at least there is some scientific evidence for “energy healing”, so at the very least, it’s less “hoaxful” than the “control your opponent through energy” b.s. they are spewing.

there is lots of evidence that the autonomic nervous system’s natural drive towards homeostasis can be enhanced by very general types of input, which can include light touch or even just the nearby presence of another individual, under circumstances where the patient is predisposed towards having a healing effect (e.g. - lying on a treatment table with essential oils in the room and Enya playing ), and this can certainly help people who are living in a chronic non-resolving generalized inflammatory response (e.g. - fbromyalgia and the like) move into a more parasympathetic tonus, but when it comes to actual anatomically specific structural dysfunction (e.g. - subluxed rib, connective tissue fibrosis), you need to do real manual work to have an effect, otherwise you are living in fantasy land); the problem is that there are a multitude of “techniques” that people think are driving their “energy healing” effect, and they go through all sorts of ridiculous and elaborate protocols, when it really has nothing to do with that at all; and that’s why you get all these Johnny-come-lately “healers” who think that they are the shizzle, who have the audacity to impugn the work of actual licensed healthcare practitioners, without their having a clue about what they are doing;
not that I have any issues w that sort of thing myself…
addendum: of course, there are a lot of licensed healthcare practitioners who I wouldn’t let near me w a 10’ pole, so I;m not saying that this is a catch-all bulwark against incompetence…
taai gihk yahn won’t let ANYONE touch him, not even his wife… there was this one time back in college, it involved a lot of alcohol, some petroleum jelly and a bicycle, but I digress

ok, ok, maybe so, so we SHOULD do something, maybe move people without touching them with chi balls, blow up a chicken at 30 yards, then do some forms and then do push hands where we make eachother cough

[QUOTE=Lucas;1047203]airfare is pretty cheap. im sure dale can offer this same open door policy at a different time, not just during this event. take a vacation, go let dale school you, get back to us.
if you cant afford the air fare, get a job. it only takes one day, no need for sleeping accomidations. fly in, test, fly out all same day.[/QUOTE]
God. What a crock. Cops cops cops. ICU and ER. Bonding out of jail. Legal fees from subsequent suits. Loss of income from the legal fallout. Failing background checks in the future.
There is always a cost associated with venting one’s spleen. ALWAYS. Easier just to stay home and make sure none of the trash moves into your area.

sounds like some of the loonies on here, watched to many Dragonballz cartoons when they were kids. Had some “master” show them the “path” and BLAM freakin JEDI’s all.
For those of you who don’t believe in invisible forces linking everything in the universe…try looking these up:
gravitational force
electromagnetic force
Ever since e=mc^2 nothing mystical is really that contrary to our limited knowledge. Perception is the real creator of the universe.
Science is not done. Einstein’s laws are still being ‘fixed’ all the time, and are probably due for a major overhaul in the near future (too many fixes means it ain’t right). Modern physics is hardly a reason for skepticism about mysticism, no doubt Einstein would agree.
The trollshido camp doesn’t understand much beyond hitting someone in the head or choking them or vice versa.
there is as much value in trying to explain higher ideas to them as there is in trying to teach a monkey calculus.
the trollshido group that has settled in here are here only to antagonize people who practice kung fu or pursue it in their personal lives.
they cannot cognitively understand the bridge to the esoteric that is afforded through many asian martial arts practice and are often too dull witted to even comprehend the entry levels of it.
willful ignorance for the most part, and not worth listening to them drivel on and on about how only hard sparring is of value and rolling and all the other stuff they picked up off of tv over the years.
Meh, they are pollution in the forum and this is what it’s come to.
whatever I guess, It’s not my forum.
throwingfeces.com would be a better name for the place though. Mission accomplished trollshido neophytes! You are crapping in new places! yay! you’re pooping out your fingers.

Please tell me your joking, right. I mean come on man, you troll here as much as anyone, so if your going to start calling people on here trolls, at least man up and admit your faults as well.
found this video of a kung fu guy demonstrating techs. on a person that is “supposedly” doing MMA tactics. Funny thing is the guy is probably someone that posts on here. Sifu Rudy or something.
anyways, I didn’t listen to it just watched the techs. he was demo.
Thoughts??
He’s demonstrating techniques that will not work against someone in a full on environment. Over and over this is posted in video and other segments. seriously hooking the jaw, lunge stance to keep from getting taken down???

Joe Rogan was talking about these people. This is what kills me. People like Sifu Rudy and Novel Bell are considered skilled…hell they are considered to be “fighters” or atleast people that can fight. But then they put this garbage up showing techniques against people not really trying to hit them. The guy can barely move his feet.
i dont think its turning sadder less and less people are doing kung fu. which makes me very happy
