Lets divide the real CMA from the Fakes

[JadeDragon]

Ok, all, it has come yo my mind that some in here may be fakes or those who just troll around attacking others and really avoid any substance or real martial arts talk.
So here is a quick test to divide the true from the fake. Here are a few simple questions that those who understand CMA should know.
I know some may try to google answers but lets see.
1. What is a hanging horse stance and what is the weight distribution of both of the legs?
2. What are the 12 bridges of Hung gar? Describe as many as you know.
3.What are the four "Dao"
4. Who was Lam Sai Wing and was he a master of A. "Pugilistic Arts? or B "Choy Lee Fut Kung Fu"?
5.Why is there three bows in Choy Lee Fut?
6. Who invented the "No shadow kick"?
7.What form is the "Appearance of the Dragon and Tiger"from?
8. How many hand forms in Hung Gar Kuen?
9. How many hand forms in Choy Lee Fut?
10. Kung Fu means, "Chinese Fighting style", or "achievement through great effort"

Look, your questions are idiotic at best. They are asking questions about things in a particular style(s). I've been doing Sil Lum Kung Fu for close to 20 years and I can't answer some of your questions because they deal will a style I don't do. I don't practice CLF or Hung Gar Kuen. But I can tell you that Kung fu means the second definition that you listed. These questions prove nothing as far as a persons legitamacy. These questions you ask is like me asking you to perform Gung Li Chuan or Green Bamboo Viper form. Although Gung Li is pretty well known. But the snake form you probably have know idea. Does that make you a fruad?

They are not idiotic. They are dealing with certain things. Hung Gar and CLF are some of the most traditional styles in Kung Fu. Anyone that has some knowledge of Kung Fu should be familiar with some of this.

I speak from my experience as a kung Fu teacher that is why the questions reflect what I know.

If a person can answer even two of them, I would be more convinced.

[TigerClaw]

I adjusted some of the questions, to make it easier.

10. Kung Fu means, "Chinese Fighting style", or "achievement through great effort"

1. Its all the weight on the back leg with the front leg raised with the leg from the knee down hanging loose.

That is in high posture. Middle and low vary depending on the school of thought you follow.

2. Don't do Hung Gar

3. Dao is Chinese for sword. There are a lot more than 4 that I know of.

4. He was noted for Hung Gar. He wrote books on gung ji fuk fu keun ("Taming the Tiger Fist"), fu hok seung ying keun ("Tiger Crane Paired Form Fist"), and tit sin keun ("Iron Wire Fist").

5. Don't study it.

6. Possibly the monk Tam I know he invented Tams 64 kicks method.

7. I know that dragons refer to hand and feet.

8. Don't study

9. Don't study it.

!0. Roughly translated the character means preserve or that was my understanding.

Yeah, I only have 5+ years of Wing Chun and 1 year of CQC, but it's all about the quality of training not only the quantity. I challenged you before, but you kept ducking me. My little sister would smack you down. My wife could do it as well. You are a joke, clown. A REAL CLASS A TROLL!

I don't think so. But I will not be drawn into your childish provoking attacks. I have absolutely no fear of you or anything you say or do.

Like I said you are one of the worst kind of martial artist in my opinion.

But I still hope the best for you.

I still marvel that you treat Kung Fu Teachers the way you do.

yadda yadda yadda... Ok... tutorial time...

So here is a quick test to divide the true from the fake. Here are a few simple questions that those who understand CMA should know.

And do you have your answer sheet ready to be corrected?

I know some may try to google answers but lets see.

How many did you Google? Did you bother to write the web address for proper reference this time? No probably not...

1. What is a hanging horse stance and what is the weight distribution of both of the legs?

Depends on the system & their use. In my experience, some call it Bai Ma, some Diu Ma, some Miao Ma if you're wanting the front foot on the ground. Then the weight distribution is 90/10 back/front. Otherwise you've got Duk Lup Ma or Hok Ma where the front foot is hanging level at the waist & 100% is on the base foot. Your choice & interpretation. It's really hard to discern what you mean at times with such open ended questions.

2. What are the 12 bridges of Hung gar? Describe as many as you know.

Don't play Hung Ga to learn their basics. Know things about Hung Ga, but not their hands. In CLF, our bridges are probably similar in nature if not application, but the names are different & there's more than 12. However, that's not the question.

3.What is a unicorn stance and what is the weight distribution of each leg? And what is a good transitional stance to go into from this stance?

Well if you mean a higher moving one, then it could be Nau Ma or Gwai Ma depending on your direction. If you mean a lower one without so much motion involved, it could be Nau Ma or Li Er Ji Ma. Anybody who claims to teach CLF would know this... You really need to be more precise in your questions.

4. Who was Lam Sai Wing and was he a master of A. "Pugilistic Arts? or B "Choy Lee Fut Kung Fu"?

Lam Sai Wing... one of Wong Fei Hung's preeminent students. Wong Fei Hung was a noted Hung Ga practitioner & considered the popularizing force of Hung Ga as it's known today, created one of the most famous of all Hung Ga hand sets... So with that Regis, "A" is my final answer. Lam Sai Wing was considered to be a master of Southern Pugilist Arts. Do you also know what Wong Fei Hung was known for in the mo lum?

5.Why is there three bows in Choy Lee Fut?

<begin sarcasm>ooohh... trying to be clever you pugnacious Cancuck you... .<end sarcasm> However, the answer for the open door students is a bow to the founder's teachers, Choy Fook & Li Yau San and to Fut for his uncle Chan Yuen woo to remember their Buddhist beliefs & teachings. The closed door answer isn't for you.

6. Who invented the "No shadow kick"?

No one. The popular story (since we're supposedly talking Southern CMA here... really not sure with these broad questions) told is that Wong Fei Hung's kick was a "mo ying guerk" since it appears to not leave a shadow when performed. Can you answer what the mo ying geurk really is though? It's not exclusive to Hung Ga...

7.What form is the "Appearance of the Dragon and Tiger from?

No idea. Don't practice any form with a lyric of that name in it.

8. How many hand forms in Hung Gar Kuen?

Depends. LSW's Hung Ga has the 4 pillars, so does Tang Fung's. Do you know the forms that aren't practiced by Tang Fung's line?

9. What is the name of one of the most influential men in the Shaolin history.

Northern or Southern? Factual or popular myth? You really seriously have got to work on your questions and expectations.

10. Kung Fu means, "Chinese Fighting style", or "achievement through great effort"

hmmm... now that is a clever one. If you base your skills & training from Shaw Brothers, Bruce Lee, Golden Harvest & other media outlets, kung fu is a catch all for Chinese indigenous fight skills, regardless of origin or use. Now if you look it up in a Chinese to English dictionary you'll find "kung (gung) fu" is used to described the skills attained by a person with a long time devoted to practice & desired competency level to practice that skill in the open. Taxi drivers, Doctors, Athletes, Cooks, etc... can all be said to have "kung fu" in their desired profession or path.

I'm from the DL and I'm going to wrap up everything I have to say about KungFuMan/Tiger Claw in this post.



The irony of HIM starting threads to find 'frauds' is just beyond comprehension.

EDIT: Aw, no images.

WraithAlcon, is that you ? This is another mocker if it is him.

[ClaytonOT]

No, I think that's Wraiths. Mine has the Eagle on it with Ying Jow Pai in the background.

TC, I'm not Wraith... I'm ClaytonOT. I wasn't a big part of your critics, because you weren't worth my time.

Closing the circle...

LOL

the winds of fortune are shifting. The chaff will be gone before the rain.

And all that...

[Ben Grimm]

Bluntly speaking you twist stuff we used to expose you and now you're claiming we're the frauds. You've lowered yourself to a new level fake. I know dub you an oxygen thief. You're worse than Ashida Kim.

To all,

here is evidence about me, and my words, I said this,

The bullshit that I speak is a part of me. To tell me not to speak bullshit and LARPerific nonsense is like telling me not to exist, ,and that is almost what you are doing. TigerClaw/2008"

Yeah, that's you in a nutshell alright."


I said that. This is how ridiculous I am. [/B]

Yes, yes, we all know how ridiculous you are. Stop belaboring the point.

[Ben Grimm]

He'll never be able to stop belaboring that point. Stupid is permanent in his case.
