the person i talk to will understand
it is not any of your business

you say Yeung have been practicing since 1989
please re-read what he said carefully and do not come to a wrong understand
he said "worked" with Lung Wah and he insist that it is no name-dropping
so far he did not say he practice
i know because i asked him a direct question and he did not give a clear answer

so can you tell me from where did you understand that he said he practice martial arts, specifically LHBF, since 1989

you are mistaken, i am not in my 30s
so what you said are all based on the unrelated, unconfirmed or just plain incorrect
so please

I-mon wrote:Strange, I have noticed in the last several threads that you have been talking down to people who appear to be several decades older than yourself, and who have apparently been practicing martial arts since around the time that you were born - RobP with his 25 years of Taijiquan, before he switched to Systema which he has been practicing for ten years or so, and now our new forum member Yeung who has been practicing internal martial arts since at least 1989, and quite possibly for much longer than that. If I'm not mistaken, you yourself are in your early 30's. You seem to hold Chinese martial arts traditions very highly, so I would suggest that you could start by talking to your elders with respect, whatever martial arts they practice, and whatever their opinions might be.

Yes unfortunately,as usual the discussion has devolved into the usual blather of technical terms and historical conjecture, intellectual posturing

Lung wah was one of the best and very open to share. Twenty years time with him should know a lot. Can you share the discussion on differentiating lhbf and other arts?
I will be in Hk this December. We should go yum Cha.

Strange wrote:Yeung, i do not know what you mean when you say "worked"
it can have many different meanings and their meanings may be proffered as and when is convenient
I noticed that you did not answer any of my questions directly
as such, i shall assume "worked" does not include any of what i mentioned

but do not misunderstand me, i know that there are martial arts scholars who just do book
research on the different types of martial arts.
its all good

in your "work" between, 1989 and 2010, did you perchance come across the following：
走避开合顺 翻腾定化粘
搬扣劈搂撑 截拿崩推缠

i think most likely you have not
if you did you would not have said that LHBF practitioners do not advocate "neutralization"

you can make comparison all you like
but to ppl who practice, like me, the difference would be like night and day.
if you are making a genuine attempt to differentiate your mentioned different types of martial arts
what are your research findings so far?
what are you comparing? origins? martial principles and theories?
internal strength cultivation methods? fighting techniques and principles?
evolution and changes through each generation? historical, cultural, economic background that impact the martial arts?
