the first time i watched this video, i wasn't sure what the heck was happening. to be honest, i thought that both didn't look particularly impressive.

that was before i actually went to meet Sifu Jimmy and 'played' with him. i think i got played instead. LOL. i got tossed around like a rag doll so easily, and now watching this again, i imagine both must be REALLY good for it to look so calm, boring and unimpressive to the uninitiated . ;)

Yes, that's what real kungfu is all about. Glad you can see the difference now. I imagine that to be the first step to learning the art of i liq chuan and liq hok.

it's good to see the joy on both their faces, I trained with Karel some yeas ago and his skill combined with the impression that he keeps forgetting you are there and then remembering again is hard to understand from video. thankyou for posting, this brings back fond memories.

Yes, when equals meet they find joy in each others skills; that's also a sign of a true Master.

Using words like "highest level" is sort of daring, because one expects to see people bouncing off the walls etc. Did you really mean: Testing Yi is the highest method in your PH system? Jimmy looks pretty skilled btw. Looks like he's just playing with Karel, and could have bounced him any time at will. I always get skeptical when I see people with "Master" as their first name getting played like that, but I guess even masters can still have a thing or two yet to learn...

great to see Karel on utube! A genuinely skillful and powerful internal master. please post more!!!

By the way how many people can handle at that kind of angle at 0.41/0.42 ?

[victoriliqchuan]

Well, I must say the opinion form by watching or thru video clip Vs real life touching the opponent hand gave 2 distance impression.

[hswong33]

You clearly cannot see what we are seeing ie, the finess of "yi", and the "liq hok" exhibited.

BTW I will delete future sacarsm and one liners. If you have a point from which we can learn, positive or negative, critical or otherwise, your comments will be accepted.
