[QUOTE=jimhalliwell;1198671]Yes I have very early in my Ving tsun research looking into what actually worked best so unlike most people i trained in a lot of lineages including this one before i found out what was best for me. This lineage I found imo to be the most impractical!

Its good to have a taste of whats out there. I study in this linage and IMO there are benefits to this type of chi sau. Like a tree grows from a seed this leads to a good balanced chi sau where one benefits on both sides. That is not just right side bong sau tan sau but both, where the left side does bong tan sau and u can change sides.

Do you really have to torture me with this soup mixing Chi sau nonsense? What you learn about Ving Tsun from doing chi sau like this I don’t know! No wonder mma fighters look at this kind of crap and shake their heads I love Ving Tsun but im shaking my head just the same! People imo need to learn what is actual practical training and what is just a waste of your time and money! don’t chase instructors because of their particular lineage go by what you see! and here I see nothing but rubbish!

ps this is my opinion and could be mine only?[/QUOTE]
If the chi sao doesnt look like you think should be, then this doesnt mean that chi cao is bad… Probably just another idea behind…
[QUOTE=stonecrusher69;1199257]how can you tell see if someone has structure or not since structure can look like anything or nothing and in some cases can be.[/QUOTE]
Because imo if the arms ie fixed elbow position is actually non existent this will equal bad structure.
Hi hobbs.. Ive see vids from your school. Good stuff . You guys have structure, but my point about structure is it cant be seen but can be felt. Some people think stucture is the way you hold a tan sao a certain way, but its not. Structure can look like anything. Because its noy in the way iy looks.

Didn’t like the knife defense or much of the gate changing going from outside gate to inside gate for no apparent reason than trying to look fast not for me imo. If i had the knife he would be cut to shreds to be honest. Still light years ahead of Sam kwok.
