Very good video, beautifully shot! Great footage of HK too. I find your comments on John Kaufman and Nima King to be very interesting. I'm from the WSL lineage under Sifu Dwight Hennings but I have done some of Nima's online course. What you said about Kaufman not giving any drills for developing the CST way of internal power... From the little that I know, taigong+"rising up" is almost their most basic skill. There isn't a good way to regress that skill into smaller pieces that are easier to learn. So people kinda feel around in the dark until they get it. I liken it to teaching a kid to whistle. You can't exactly show how where the tongue goes, etc, so the kid has to experiment until he finally gets it. At least with whistling, you will get immediate feedback when you succeed. With the internal stuff, you get indirect feedback with partner drills and pressure tests. Regarding Nima's school's way of doing chisau, it seems to me that they want to use the bridge to connect to and control the opponent's centre. Other lineages might consider it chasing hands but it's their expression of chasing centre.
Thank you. I do know what CST do very well. I just didn't find it an approach that fitted into the way I train Wing Chun. All nice guys. Different styles often have different goals.
Truth. When I started doing the Dynamic Tension in GM Chris Chan lineage...my whole life changed. Could finally be "Heavy" but stay "Light". Way more useful and long lasting than lifting weights.
good stuff Alan. It's a shame you weren't able to do some training with Sergio and Nima this trip, but plenty of time in the future. Anyway, thanks for sharing this
12:22 That’s some real snap JOHN KAUFMAN has in his elbow .🙏☮️💥🤛💯I always find these amazing. Energy studies. Ya, I see what you mean. Sometimes SIFU we want FUNG HAO GUA CHOY BUI BUI LOP LOP 18 HANDS and COLLECTION DRILLS and two elbow in attacks. Energy is fun and probably helps a lot. Sometimes just letting go. Or allowing stuff. The whole USING FORCE against him thing. 😉㊙️💯🤛💥
great documentary sifu Orr ! Thank you for sharing this, this made my day! Thanks again.... respect
Glad you enjoyed it

Really enjoyed watching this video and found the varying experiences fascinating. Great to see Pete too. Truly inspiring.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thankyou for documenting and sharing a wealth of knowledge from different masters. Most enjoyable to watch. This is how WC should be
Excellent as always.

Perhaps you would have gotten something from Ho Kam Ming's people? He did have a very special relationship with Ip Man
I know that style very well. Good style of Wing Chun

Hello M. Orr, thanks for this documentary ; what's the name of white crane master ?
Welcome. Sunny So Sifu is his name.

A very interesting documentary, even to a non Wing Chuner like me. Thanks for posting a very well put together film.
Glad you enjoyed it
