  • What's the function of the bar on the top of the dummy?

  • The bar is used to practise to strike/avoid a higher moving target. When the student has learnt the forms basics the drills can help to focus on other defences/attacks.

  • good but move FASTER

  • Yes the aim is to move faster as we practise but this video was only meant as an introduction to the shaolin wooden men of Choy Lee Fut. The form is first drilled slower with emphasis on hand and foot co-ordination with power against the dummy to build calleous on the arms and knuckles

  • i've worked with mark on the door's of kings cross back in the early nineties, & let me tell you the man is exceptionally fast for a big guy. and you dont want to be on the receiving end of those hands, elbows & especially the forearms.

  • one word: excellent

  • I like the fact that the wooden dummy has moving arms. Although I would never think of using my hands on the feet, but the rest was interesting and precise. Thank you for the video

  • I wonder how many different styles uses wooden dummies.

  • @wailungma Thank you for your information.

  • @dbyammy Choy lee fut has some specific forms that teach cumla (grappling) and sut da (wrestling) The cum la is all stand up then take down. The sut da fong faart is take downs and on ground joint dislocations/holds. However Choy lee fut such a stand up style that few teachers even know these forms as they were kept in the Chan family. My Teacher Master Chen Yong Fa started to teach this training in the late 90's to a small group of us and we all have scars and torn ligaments to show for it.

  • BRAVO SUPER
