  • Mr. Jin do you know of any classes in New York City

  • Why is there always some idiot who has to dislike? Fools.

  • @kmp3000

    instead of thinking that way, I prefer to think this way---there is always a space for improvement :D

  • @YenAmiracle Well go and think it on your own video. Chinaboxer is very good.

  • @kmp3000

    Huh= =? I am not the one who gave "dislike", I am just saying instead of worry about those negative thoughts towards you, just see them as a reminder to be better with positive attitude.

    I like the Chinabox also.

    If the way I said it sounds unfriendly, I am sorry =_=.

    (Unless you just tried to remind me to put some new vids on my channel :) )

  • @YenAmiracle Whatever dude. Have a nice day.

  • Good video! This is hard concept to grasp but i like your example.

  • your analogies make it very easy to understand and remember.

    great tutorials. thanks a lot man!

  • OMG HE TALKED!!!! XD

  • Oh gosh. We were doing an exercise once. I don't know what it's called (very new), but we were using only one hand and the objective was to redirect the other's punch to the side then come in with the same hand for your own punch. My sifu said you knew you were doing it correctly when your shoulders started burning. I'm kind of at a loss for what to do now.

  • @Seikhupatz different martial arts employ the body differently do not worry. If you are doing a different martial art then you shouldn't worry.

  • hey mate could you answer this for me :)

    i just came out of 2 years of boxing so its hard for me to get use to chain punches :P but umm well i just done a sesion of chain punching how you said to do it my byceps ache not anything else is that right?

  • im sorry but it seams to me like your assistant dosent feel like doing this demonstration... But i could be wrong...

  • ni hao LOLOL

  • I was tough that forward intent is to mentally focus to think or have this forward intention, but nevertheless it is the same concept. Great comparison tho, very easy to understand! thanks

  • hmm..interesting thought, let me think on that. peace!

  • I always felt forward intent as projecting force against a person, or thing with no muscle assistance. If we're even on the same page, when I apply my intent I can almost feel a force being projected against another person while grappling. It can make everything so much easier.

  • yea, "forward intent" is very very tough concept to figure out, because it's not so "cut and dry", there are so many "layers" to the meaning, such as "physical forward intent", "mental forward intent", "spiritual forward intent" etc.. i'm still working on it on a daily basis.

  • I guess I don't have to feel too bad if a successful martial artist like yourself is still working on it. But if you ever find a better answer, an answer would be great. All your videos are very interesting, enjoyed them very much.

    Thanks!

  • Firstly I'd like to say I really like your videos, great teaching :-) I do not study Wing Chun, I study and teach Aiki Jujutsu/Aikido and looking at your videos there are a LOT of similarities in a lot of places. My sensei would always talk about forward intent or to have your energy forward - even when moving backwards, you're moving forwards. We do exercises to feel energy and the uke's (partners) centre....everything is from centre is a main point.

  • all "sensitivity based martial arts" such as BJJ, Aikido, Tai Chi, Wing Chun, Ba Gua etc... all rely on the same principles. that's why i focus on what is "similar" instead of focusing on the "differences", which is why you see them in my teaching. good stuff. take care and peace!

  • Totally agree. I taught Aikido for a few years and the ex WC guys who came to try us out used to pick things up real quick. One told me that Aikido was just "big" Wing Chun!

  • lol i was doing dan chi sao in my class ( on my 7th lesson ) my instructor doesn't have beginners classes he puts you right into the deep end and shows you stuff.

    my partner said about the foward motion so did sifu and i did this with a punch ( i didn't hit him hard atall ) but i could feel the structure and power i could of used with the foward motion

  • very nice! keep at it and keep us posted on your progress. take care and peace!

  • thanks, sifu noticed i've been working on my stance and punches!

  • keep it up! don't forget basics are the key to everything. peace!

  • Great Videos your examples make it very easy for us to understand the concepts behind forward intent thanks.

  • thanks for the kind words. peace!

  • great videos with clear explanation of techniques- congrats and keep up the good work

  • thanks for your words of encouragement. take care and peace!

  • "Fighting theories-Hau Ma,yoy lau hui sung, ltu soa chung,Don't stand on ceremony"VingTsun Kuen Kuit. The Forward Triangle works with the body the pushes the Triangle and cuts though.

    There are many ways of using the Triangle which is old school.

    "Grand Master Moyyat's Kuen Kuit

    You can due a lot with the idea of the Triangle .

  • if i am where you were living, id take up your classes and be your contradicting dummy. id learn alot learning from your counters. answers build questions, questions builds answers

  • interesting,... but almost diametrically opposite to the teaching of Mr SuiNimTao, Chu Shong Tin ... who states the the arm is brought out to its optimum angle, and then it is rotation at the shoulder (anterior deltoid) which takes over and gives strength to the movement/structure.

  • using your shoulder (anterior deltoid) versus your body frame (back, lats, quads, core) to strengthen a movement makes no sense to me. maybe something is lost in "translation".

  • My teacher always said take your shoulders out of the technique, use "centre" not strength, once you feel yourself using your centre, every technique and movement feels totally different. The backpack way is also a very good way of describing keeping and dropping centre, remaining "heavy".

  • thanks and i agree with your sifu. peace!

  • I seriously doubt that Chu Shong Tin would teach you to use your shoulder... Another way to feel the forward intend, is to ask someone to slow down your movement when you do a fwd Fook Sau by adding gentle pressure of fingers or palm of the hand of your wrist, but not too much, to avoid getting tensed. Once you are used, ask more force. When you are stopped, don't try to overcome, just stay without tensing. When you are released your hand should go fwd naturally, with your body being stable.

  • The focus fwd should be at the wrist but driven by the elbow. Same for the backwards part of Fook Sau. Ask someone to slow down your elbow with fingers or palm, gently : always avoid tensing.

  • then may i suggest you watch some of his SLT videos.

    the elbow is brought forwards from the body by the anterior deltoid.

    it is retracted by the posterior deltoid & scapular muscles.

    so "elbow energy" occurs at the shoulder, and moved as a whole body unit, by the waist and legs.

    its simple biomechanics.

    where else do you imagine the muscular effort to raise the arm, (and hence the end of the humerus/elbow) comes from?

  • if that method works for him and for you, then go for it. all i'm saying is that to use the shoulder contradicts my method which is why i don't rely on it.

  • Maybe this is a deduction you make from his videos but I don't think he would tell you to use shoulder.

    But maybe it is a misunderstanding between us.

  • i agree, i saw his SLT videos and he knows what he's doing. more than likely it has to do with the misinterpretation during the translation of information.

  • i get it. ur just say that i can extend but dont use my shoulder. and the brakes is to stop the motion befor it will extend too much. is that right.

  • you got it. peace!

  • now i'm even more confused LOL

  • where do you teach?? i wanna follow this lessons physically.. i thinks this is the best teaching course on line..

  • me too! =D lol..i'm j/k. but i do try hard to make sure the quality of my video instruction is high. i teach privately here in los angeles. take care.

  • This is genuine instruction ... Bravo!

  • thanks for the kind words! peace
