@soaringaegis Then they truely practice a martial "art". I might give them a try, then.

I guess the Americanized ones are like that. Try real Chinese movies like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Or Fearless. Or Hero. Or Red Cliff. There's plenty out there that aren't just about some vengeful guy beating people's faces in with fists.

@soaringaegis I didnt say he did, I said all "Kung Fu" movies (or Wushu, I guess?) stars are just copies of Bruce Lee to me, regardless of fighting style or weaponry. I don't even like Jet Li or Jackie Chan, although the latter at least adds humor. No, indeed, the only movie I've seen with a Jian is Disney's Mulan.

@SpadaccinoLuciano

Obviously you haven't seen very many, if you've never seen this type of sword before. :/ Which begs the point. Bruce Lee doesn't even use swords.

[SpadaccinoLuciano]

@soaringaegis Never really liked them, theyre all just wannabe Bruce Lees, now...

@SpadaccinoLuciano

Why not? D:

[soaringaegis]

@SpadaccinoLuciano

Wow, really? You see them a lot in Chinese movies.

[SpadaccinoLuciano]

Wow, its like a chinese Rapier. I didnt even know the Chinese had thrusting swords.

@mastercatx i allowed that she may have a strong wrist, and never mentioned a tight grip as the solution. like your "bet" you are again making assumptions. But for your benefit, please point to the moments where you believe there is indication of a strong wrist? Then we can discuss this in comparison to sword methods in other schools, or in pure biomechanical terms if you prefer. I might agree that she is quite close to her father's technique of many years ago.
