I've just registered here so a big hello to everyone.

 

If anyone is interested in learning Kung Fu there is a training session every Monday and Thursday between 5pm and 6.30pm

 

We train in Wing Tsun Kung Fu it is one of the simplest yet most devastating styles so is perfect for personal protection.

 

Everyone is welcome to come and see us before they decide to join. We train at Champon bar Soi Bukou (think i spelt it wrong)

 

Sifu Ron speaks fluent English and German. If you want contact numbers please send me a PM and I will reply straight away.

Hi

 

Are there any wing tsun teachers out there...even if you are not qualified, I would still like lessons. I have been to grade 4, although, that was 10 years ago, so would be happy to start basic, again.

I wouldnt mind private lessons, if they are affordable, if there arent any group lessons...

Im here for another 6 months and am based in Pattaya central/north...

 

Many thanks

 

Antony

I hold the 2nd teaching grade in Leung Ting WingTsun, taught classes in my own WT school in England for several years and am based near Threppasit Road. I'm happy to give private (or group) lessons at my house, so PM me if interested.

Isn't that the style Sherlock Holmes uses in the movies.... (Although in the books he refers to boxing and baritsu)?

 

Now where did you pick that handy little skill up Bushcraft?..........Let's have your "The Origin of Bushcrat" story.

Sherlock's moves are of course choreographed 'stage' moves, but it's a derivative of what I do. WingTsun (WT) is the style practiced by Bruce Lee, and is also known as 'Chinese boxing' (hence 'Boxer rebellion') or (as a generic term for all the traditional Chinese martial arts) Kung Fu.

I came to it in Germany, where I saw a blind woman (who had twice been raped in the past) demonstrating the art against three male attackers. WT relies more on feeling = physical contact than on eyesight to deduce what the opponent is doing. It convinced me, so I took it up in a club but was then invited to train at WingTsun headquarters near Heidelberg, where I spent almost 4 years - 6 hours a day, 6 days a week - in a secluded old castle learning to fight with and without weapons. I was 46 when I started, training with chaps aged between 20 and 30, but managed it through determination and because I loved its sheer logic. No acrobatics or showy techniques, just remorseless attack as the best means of defence.

It's the best thing I've ever done, and as a teacher later in England I was thanked by many young students, who were in danger of going off the rails, for changing their life. That's very satisfying.

It's highly effective but requires little strength, can be learned by people of any age or fitness level (even the wheelchair-bound) and as a wonderful side-effect keeps the body supple and healthy.

I have no students here in Patts right now, but would be delighted to teach at my home if any BMs are interested in learning really effective self-defence. This is not blood-and-snot martial arts, but intelligent use of body mechanics.

Here endeth the plug ..

A pleasure, preferably with several participants as there is a lot of partner work. Just PM me Atlas, can do and you'll find it eye-opening. I also guarantee you won't be hurt beyond the odd small bruise, which is another bonus.

Bushcraft, Im not allowed to PM yet, Im guessing I havent posted enough to have the permission...

Im interested in private lessons..as I cant PM you and am wary of giving out my contact details openly on the forum (I did that years ago and got myself in to a great deal of trouble with future girlfriends, later finding out why they new so much about me), where do we go from here?..Im assuming you can PM me your contact details?

He can't PM you, nor can you PM him.

That's because you haven't applied to become a board member.

Look at one of the first sub forums on your main page. It will take you to the application form.

I had a good laugh the other day. A young Maori boy four or five yrs old who had been living out of the city saw his first real china man and his wife .He goes up to them and starts going whaa whooo wha in a kungfu pose. The old Chinese couple thought it was a great joke. the only Asians he had ever seen where on his dads kungfu movies. so he thought they must all do it. :D

In the UK he could have been arrested and jailed for 10 year under the race relations act. :D

Hi Bushcraft,

 

Expect me to appear me next weak for training i needed to

'fix' some visa issues first, its all done now

 

I hope you wont go easy on me i want hardcore training.

See you soon

 

I can teach you to hurt attackers, very badly if necessary, but you won't get hurt yourself during training. I teach you to dish out, not take. Make the other bugger defend himself, if he can.

Cheers,
