  • @marius9 more so than 1,000. the only mistake would be in thinking that it could never be modified. With slight footwork changes any kung fu pattern can defend any attack. Focusing on depth of skill rather than quantity of techniques.

  • Great Video!!!

  • We spend a lot of time practicing and executing fragments of the form, only later after 500th to a 1000th executed sweep, punch, pierce and so on is when you start to have this realization that Rudy mentions in this demo. This was a great way of explaining the depth portions of discoveries when practicing. Everything Rudy says here about balance is right on. I favor the rolling forearms to prevent shoulders to tighten hence a lot! God bless you Rudy, and blacktaoist too.

  • I'm a Wing Chun man and I learned so much just listening to this 5 min. clip. Sifu was dropping serious knowledge. Peace Kung Fu brothers.

  • Forgive me if it seems I'm overstepping here, for I, in my opinion, am really just a novice. However, during my training i have been told and have learned that anything you can do standing up, can be done on the ground (granted, with a little modification.) You ask about Taiji...perhaps try using the rolling of the arms to bring about traps or offset them? It's something I've used with some measure of success when training.

    To Sifu Curry: Yah bless you, Sifu! Keep bring us the reality!

  • great video and informatiin Sifu Rudy Oss.

  • You guys have such a comfortable ease with each other, even in movement execution. That's worth more than a thousand seminars. Thanks for vid.

  • sifu rudy i was wondering your thoughts on yi chuan (dachengchuan). thank you.

  • I think at its core, a style should be defined by its principles. Strategy and techniques would follow those principles. However, you can classify styles based on its dominant techniques I suppose. And you can't always implement some principles into another style. For example, how do one implement Taiji principles in BJJ, when you are already lying flat on the floor.

  • I am no sifu by any measure, but I might be able to answer this. When I practiced Hung Gar, when we did sparring, we were only taught one technique from a form, and all the uses of that technique. At the end of the class, the test was to be able to deflect any technique Sifu threw at us. We didn't know if it was going to be a kick, punch,hold, headbutt or otherwise. We say "every technique has 1000 applications." That might be exaggerated, but the point is, there are a lot at any rate.
