I learn mainly from talking and words, but this means it takes me a little longer than some people to put that understanding into practice in Wing Chun. On the other hand, there are guys I train with who haven't been practicing Wing Chun as long as I have who are beginning to pick up the techniques very quickly. These guys are good Kineasthetic learners, but aren't so good at explaining things to beginners. A good teacher needs a balance of both - Physical skill and the talent to communicate what he or she is teaching. I like the X marks the spot, I'll try that one.

It looks simple, and if it's simple, it's wing chun, and as a consequence it's good ! I'll tell it to my partners and my Sihing at the next class he he he !!! Keep on sharing your treasures with us, sincerely, Jean, from France (Europe) Hello mister Chu,

I’m a beginner in another lineage than yours (Sifu Klaus Flickinger, AIWTKF), but thanks for that idea! that’s quite funny and simple !

It looks simple, and if it’s simple, it’s wing chun, and as a consequence it’s good !
I’ll tell it to my partners and my Sihing at the next class he he he !!!

Keep on sharing your treasures with us,
