Do you have a progressive mind set?

[stonecrusher69]

IDK, I'm still reading the Complete Wing Chun book, but my impression is that Wing Chun is best for fighting indoors or in cramped spaces, so it would progress to the next level very fast if I had more space.

I am also reading another so-called "Complete" book called Complete Tai-Chi by Alfred Huang, and it really begs the question if many people practice tai chi barefoot??? I thought it was just something weird that Bruce Francis guy does in his youtubes, but the author of this book says there's all sort accupressure stuff going on when its done barefoot, but then he was imprisoned for over a decade so maybe he discovered the barefoot thing himself because he doesn't mention it in his long convoluted attempt to trace lineages of tai chi...

if you can fight in a small space fighting in a bigger space should be no problem.

Yeah, but to get the so-called next level the long tail of the snake forms would have to be put back. All the Wing Chun I've ever seen appears to only use the heads of the snake. Snake style kung fu they say it was derived from covers a lot of ground, more so than any other animal forms I know except perhaps for eagle claw...

Do you dismiss all the centre lines? or just the meridian line ( I use IP Chuns name for the line between both opponents centre lines ( C O G lines)

[T.D.O]

or is your centre point just the C O G line??

If not where is your centre point?

Thanks

Yeah. I don't use centres, but I like to read about them. Do you know of any good websites about them? Probably very important when on boats...

Sorry I don't, should try searching the site, I'm guessing the subject would come up at some point, being a centre line style and that lol

But.. from what I can see on the net, most people only think of the one "centre line" , the one between 2 people.

there are 3 your centre of gravity line, heart line and the meridian line.

Oh, the 3 lines reminds me of learning about multi-attacker applications in animals forms. Well constructed forms should handle 3 attackers covering all 360 degrees around you...

The Center Point is a few inches below the navel .. its the balance point in the body.. as you can see it's different then Centerline.. so any move I make is to distribute that balance point instead of attacking and defending the Centerline.

Centre of gravity line, is line that goes through that point and the one that I was taught to attack

when you say centre line, what do you refer to as the centre line?

The Center line is the center axis the runs fron the top of your head to the bottum of your torso. center point is different

No I don't dismiss any foundational tenets of Wing Chun.. I've only expanded on them or focused the in a different direction which is Center.Point theory ..I use that as the most important theory to follow.

WCK is a short range fighting art,,you fight in close like a judo or wristler would fight you..
