@heartslord This is purely an opinion based question. Would you agree that most wing chun practitioners are too stiff?
I was actually taught to be stiff in a sense. Keeping the legs so tense, when I blocked it would cause me to shift and lose balance but maintain that structure. Personally I find relaxing allows your body to shift naturally to root yourself and actually budge less.
Just my personal experience and opinion, but I'd like your opinion as well.

I like how you explained it. Useing the pak sau makes it easier for beginers to grasp but personally I see it more as a closed hand tan sau.
From your experience would you consider this more of a distance move? I'm asking because I myself, when in a clash especially when in close, I tend to only use tan for strikes more around my shoulder and for more centered strikes I use man sau and wu sau.
Maybe I just need to practice it more while doing in fighting.

@heartslord oh ok but im living at indiana is pretty far of new york
is this works with a boxers jab (roll the fist) with shoulders high, and speccialy with a taller guy? (because I always check my example s triceps and can not reach his head because of the shoulders)

@Thetraveller04
The head is over-rated. Try the throat. Only if life or death though. And yes, VT deals well with the roll, raised shoulders etc., it just means a different opening is available. With the VT, done properly, you own the interaction and all of its variables.

@Thetraveller04 what I was taught, although you may not like it, if you cant reach them you have to make it so you can reach them. So youd hand to attack the back of their knees. You could aim it for the sternum or ribs though and it could still work well but you wouldn't get as good of a result. The head causes a large amount of fear and shifts their balance and of course everything else we know.
Sorry if I misunderstand the comment.

I plan to make a vid about how to defend against the head as many players are vulnerable to this technique. it's important to always keep your triangle "inflated" so, there is some push and give in playing chi sau however one never allows the opp to "deflate" the arms enough to successfully launch the head for a strike. That head comes fast and furious so clear observant boundaries must be maintained. ;-)

We are in the Catskill Mountains of NY. We welcome students to come and train and in particular to quickly learn enough to practice with friends and soon thereafter open a school with 4 visits a year to our school and teaching brothers can visit your school.
