Do you guys have any experience against wing chun practitioners? Their control of the centerline is difficult to adjust to, especially with the way they...
I've never had a chance to spar wing chun practitioners, but i have trained with a guy from Hong Kong. My instructor at the time was great at "getting...

My instuctor also feels that the timing of the kick is enough to render the blocks redundant. However, in our system, we teach no.6 at white belt, and we wnat...
Yes, same with us. At lower levels, you learn no.6 with a block. Lower intermediate you learn with a dragon trap, then uppper intermediate you work on just ...
