You dont believe they work? Well come to LA WC academy and you will see they do when someone does it on you.

is that with or without the alphabets??

it's with alphabets and capacity of hitting human dummies at 22:2 ratio with Horatio

(and when your hand meets... oh no, I'm starting to think like Sherwinc... HEEEELP!! THAI BRI HEEEEEELP ME!!!)

[Thai Bri]

i think you might find that it is I who has an unusual variant of such a condition.
Can someone please section me before I do something ridiculous

[sherwinc]

can logically be only one possibility.
they assumed the one legged white crane stance

One Legged White Crane Stance is the common mistakes of all the Fake KungFu School that our found in our place.......

why???????

maybe influenced by Chinese KungFu Old Movies.........

so, majority of the Fake KungFu Schools and majority of the Fake KungFu Instructors here in our place performs ONE LEGGED WHITE CRANE STANCE and especially the SNAKE STYLE HAND POSITIONING STANCE...... but when in actual sparring the fight in a KARATE WAY.........

haw haw haw haw........

but in an actual or real fight..... they forgot their karate but fight in a Mixed Martial Arts like what you see in the UFC........

the reason why most of the ignorant martial arts minded people here in our place claiming that Karate is the best and KungFu is only for movies.......

Muay Thai is not as popular here in our place, but the popular here in our place is always Karate, Boxing, and Tae Kwon Do.......

is that with or without the alphabets??

I never mentioned any alphabets. Im not sherwinc. And no, no alphabets are needed to defend with WC. Just deflectins and strikes. I don't understand all this crap about alphabets, and what it has to do with fighting.

[Thai Bri]

Well, if you don't understand alphabets how could you know ANYTHING about fighting?

[sherwinc]

Well, if you don't understand alphabets how could you know ANYTHING about fighting?

well, i have to answer this......

Thai Bri, i really used to call it ALPHABETS caused it is easy to understand than any terminologies.......

when i teach my friends about combinations of Short Distance KungFu Arts... i ignore Forms, i only teach them Alphabets of Hand Attacks cause it is easy to learn and applicable to sparring and actual fighting than Forms.....

i never did apply any forms into sparring, instead, all i usually apply to sparring is all Alphabets and not Sequences of Forms.........

yet Forms are still applicable to fighting but i rather choose Alphabets cause its not a waste of time.......

Example:
the Alphabets that you see in WingChun KungFu is their:
18Hands
2 classes of punches (Sun, ChainPunching)

so, there are 20 (18+2=20) alphabets as what i know in WingChun......

Another Example:
in NgoChoKun, the Alphabets is 30, these are:
5 for Single Short Hand attacks
5 for Single Long Hand attacks
5 for Double Short Hand attacks
5 for Double Long Hand attacks
5 for Kneeling Hand attacks
5 for Kicking Leg attacks

Another Example:
in ChiDianBun, i learn only 55 attacking alphabets:
Level1 i learn only 20
Level2 i learn only 13
Level3 i learn only 4
Level4 i learn only 4
Level5 i learn only 10 (elbows)
Level6 i learn only 4 (kickings)

My thoughts on Kung Fu:

They have sick names, probably the best of any martial arts. haha

White Crane style beats tiger style, because qui chang kaine said so damnit.

hmm lemme see.... dragon kung fu must be the best because a dragon would rape everything else.

Umm Alphabets is kinda like alphagetti, sorta noodles in tomato sauce, its ok for a quick snack, so I guess kung fu gets props for that.

55 attacking alphabets is far too many, I can only eat max two cans of alphagetti in one sitting, and 55 attacks is far to many to remember.

cant think of anything else....

Why is there never the "punch guy in the eye" option?
