WC Question

I heard in mainland China that Yip Man Wing Chun is not considered Wing Chun at all, that it is a baby art compared to the true Wing Chun. Anyone care to comment on this statement and spread your thoughts?

You, sir, are a troll.

By asking a question?

It’s not just by asking a question – for instance, I could ask if is it true your mother is a *****? and isn’t bak mei considered an art for mental retards? (neither of which I think is true, just making a point). If you ask troll questions, you are a troll.

hum! Ok, well the trolling question still stands. Any comments on the question at hand?

Wise people do not feed the trolls. Instead, we should spank them! You are a troll.

Its a simple question fueled by what I have heard in China. I am just trying to hear what others might have heard or have experience with. I believe that is what these forums are for, I guess if that is trolling I appologize, but if anyone cares to post there thoughts I would be interested still. Thanks

My thoughts on your questions would be you also heard in mainland China that mainland Ving Tsun is also a baby art compared to the Bak Mei of “Lao Xiu Luang of Foshan Bak Mei through Lao Xiu Luang of Foshan China” and that no one else in the USA is qualified to teach The Truth about what you heard except the “one true Disciple in the USA”.

I believe that my thoughts above is a correct usage of what you claim as your understanding of “what these forums are for”. I guess if that is trolling I also apologize.

I said that about Ving Tsun and Bak Mei? I must have slept through that post. You guys really need to stick to the question as it has nothing to do with putting down an art or about Bak Mei at all. You guys have real problems but also real talent on how you can twist everything. :confused:

“hum! Ok, well the trolling question still stands. Any comments on the question at hand?”

Ask the Urukai. Rumor is they helped to stamp out the last vestige of the race that you mentioned! =)

As for me having problems, I will be the first to exclaim from the rooftops that I have many problems. I feel that, on the whole, most reasonable people will have a good understanding within themselves as to what their own numerous problems might be (and, possibly, my problems, too :smiley: )

I will also be the first to exclaim from the rooftops that I have no talent at all for twisting my words from “you also heard” into “you also said” as you have done in your last post (whether you were awake or asleep at the time is not all that relevant).

I will also be the first to exclaim that hitting the “search” button located under my posts will reveal a great deal about me, just as hitting the “search” button under your posts reveals a great deal about you.

And, I will also claim that to truly stick to a question in a fashion you portend to want, one must also take into consideration who is doing the asking and who is doing the answering. However, as you posted elsewhere, “There is a lot of history you do not know about all of that. You should drop it!” So, I will.

:cool:

Ok, anyone else have comments?

Dont know much about trolls but I will answer your question.

  1. I have and I know many others that have crossed hands with mainland wing chun students and sifus. I have never heard that anyone had felt that Yip Man wing chun did not stand up or was in anyway less than what was felt from our mainland brothers. Some thought that what has been passed down from Yip Man was even more effective.

  2. There has been and is anti YM bias held by some mainland wing chun players probably because how famous YM wing chun is compared to others.

3 Yip man teachings among his students varied. Your opinion of YM wing chun will vary depending upon which version of YM wing chun you see .

  1. The fact that Yip Man cut out some movements not needed for fighting has led some to say his wing chun lacks ‘x’. Not true he did teach some those movements. He also simplified the names used in the system. This contributes to the feeling that Yip man didnt know all the wing chun etc.

There are other things I could add but I think this answers your question.

Ah, ok thank you. I have heard some of that also.

Yeah, I did not say that one is necessarily better or worse, I am just floating around what I heard and was wanting some of the others on here to voice there thoughts on it. Mainly what I have heard is that in China they dont say it is in-effective but just that it is not Wing Chun. Thats all I heard. Thanks again hunt1.

I heard the same story in mainland China. Many would be wise if they did not think themselves wise.

interesting, this is what I was wanting to know, whether others had experienced this before. Thanks.

Nice saying, it reminds me of this one:

"The fool who knows he is a fool is for that very reason wise.
The fool who thinks himself wise is the greatest fool of all "

                                                               Shakyamuni

Here are some of the differences in Fut Sao Wing Chun Kuen

  1. Tork instead of slant body
  2. Many fist, palm, claw, and finger formations ie; ginger fist, pheonix eye, monkey claw.
  3. Hei/Nei Gung
  4. Siu Baat Gwa (Little Octagon) footworks
  5. Stake Dummy, Low Horse Dummy, Knives and Pole Dummy.
    This is just touching the surface. This art is being taught by James Cama Sifu http://futsaoyongchunkuen.com/
    Also Sifu Cama has evolved the two man forms from the applications Grand Master Leung Chi Man transmitted for full body Chi Sao sensitivity.

Go Jun Long:

You heard no such thing…you’re just a moron looking to start an argument.

GET LOST!
