the whole thing sounds like some kinda publicity stunt. if he can do what apparently mizner and liang can do, then great. good job. but idk about the $5k blah blah blah. that just sounds stupid. i know some people don't "believe" (understandably) people have some skill. ok great. then go off and do you whatever else, no problem.

Agree with Doc, it was a good interview.

Would like to know more about what skills Jamie spoke about. I thought Joey was a beginner, or had maybe practiced just a couple of years. I wonder what skills he could have achieved. But maybe I am mistaken? Maybe because Joey has a humble approach. With that said, I like his attitude.

Is he really? Officially? He "reviewed" the Martial Man's camp and the different teachers in Damo Mitchells YT channel. From what I got out of it, that time should have been the first time he met Adam.

How do you define "one of his students"?

Does that mean his only source of information is that teacher?

Joey gives Adam money to attend his workshops and hangs out with him and promotes his material and mindset so whatever you call that is what he is.

I don't disagree with it, and ask anyone who does to provide a better explanation, please.

The long one, I don't disagree with the content, but I think the presentation lacks self awareness overall.

Joey has many years of experience, not sure how many but probably over 15. I'm not sure if he really learns from Adam or they are just friends sharing stuff.

He shown me stuff from i liq chuan (wuji i liq chuan if I remember well), taijiquan, neigong, and silat. Spinning hands, different uses of taiji frames on pusjing hands (the differences between large frame, middle frame, and small frame), neigong skills to induce connection into your body (that was quite a funny one, Joey can touch your forearm and you feel your feets getting hot), and one of these weird silat animal possesion like trances.

Skilled guy and overall very nice and kind, it was a pleasure to meet him

Ok, thank you for explaining and sharing. I trust you if you say that he has skills. Sounds interesting.

Did anyone else notice he didn't actually say what chi is or touch upon it's training or use? Par for the course really.
