You obviously learned from Buck Sam Kong or one of his students the way you do the Lau Gar Kuen. I used to practise this form for a long time. Today I practise the version that was taught by Lum Jo.

Hi, now I would be interested to see you Lau Gar Kuen. I learned from Sifu Alan Baklayan in Muinch, Germany and at seminars from his teacher Si Gung Buck Sam Kong who learned from Lum Jo. I when I moved to Canada I learned from Sifu Harry Cheung, who learned from Si Gung Lam Jo. The tow versions of the Lau Gar Kuen I learned differ to 40%. Some of the techniques you showed in the applications seem to be from the set I learned in Muinch. That is the reason I am asking.

Hello, thank for message., Traditional Kung fu varies depending on the master. Grandmaster Y.C.Wong softened and made his style more fluid. For my part I made a “mirror” effect in this shape, to work in symmetry. After immigrating to Hong Kong in 1950, Y.C. Wong continued his training and assisted Grand Master Lam Jo. It was Lam Jo who incorporated this form into the style. The applications should be identical, but in daily practice they will appear by themselves for you with. For example for my part, an obvious fact which also appears in other styles. Good practice.

I did Kung Fu for many years and enjoyed every minute of it however it’s not practical as taught through syllabus applications. You have to put the gloves on and fight, by that I mean go for it. Learn how to hit, punch and kick a moving target and one that is trying to hit you back in a realistic manner. Nobody fights using straight line punches,blocks won’t work, they are too slow. This is all so contrived, students will get hurt unless they can have a proper scrap.

Thank you for your comment. I completely agree with you on that concept. THIS is completely true for combat sport, you have to do it with gloves, if only, to have a sense of contact. But it is also true the other way around. I often fought in the street (despite myself) and the straight punches worked just as well as the others. Litteraly EVERYTHING can works, but on condition that you remember that martial art is not a sport, it is an art of war. That training must be daily and not in a club once a week. And never lose sight of the fact that the principle is not the ring but being able to defend one's life, and above all to defend the lives of others (originally that was why), just as there can be several adversaries. One blow must be enough to break the attack, not time to feint on the battlefield. I assure you that it works, but I say it sincerely, it really has to go beyond the sporting field. Asians have always been pragmatic, which doesn't work, it disappears. Many applications in the forms cannot work because the training is no longer the same as before. Either they work in the "old-fashioned" way, or the application must be modified. Finally, we place the technique not directly (this is the case in video to show only), keep fighting, dodging, and go for it when you see an opening. That's my view point... Have a nice day.

U must fight in the streets then u will know which moves work. In the streets your opponent is always on the move n if it's a gang fight it will chaotic. Anyway the principal is 1 guts 2 strength and 3 then is Kung Fu, if u don't have the 1st 2 then Kung Fu is useless. I've been personally involved in many fights n each time n in different countries is always different scenario. I'm just sharing my personal experience, no offence to anybody. Sorry if I've made some guys uncomfortable n thank u if I've provided different perspective of street fights to guys that agree.

@@chanlucky374 You are not offending anyone, on the contrary, your opinion is correct. You understood everything. I also experienced all of this. The Kung fu techniques as in the video are only applications to be used as is, but you understand this. Here are the applications of the form. In combat, the applications are also done well, of course but with a different approach. This is explained in my seminars, and I do not do it on KZbin but in private, because it is a little complex to explain to the uninitiated in a general public setting as you might imagine. I have made a few videos other than youtube that explain the application and how to place it on a fight. Thank you in any event for your comment, it’s always a pleasure to share.
