Wow, how do ya'll have time to browse different sites. I barely have enough time to read RSF and Facebook (holds his head in shame).

Have been following that s***t as well. Surely, own agendas are the main point. This morning, I also was surprised by posts all over FB of those huge portraits of a certain master, like in the famous halls of a certain village, lol, all in the name of traditionalism! Never saw pics that big of one master in any trad. Guan!

Looks like you made an impression, wayne. You're being called out by name in the RSF FB group.

So what is the relationship exactly between the RSF forum and the Facebook page?

I believe it was put there for emergency communication when the main site is down. Nobody ever posts there, really.

It is not me he is talking too it is all you future customers
What is his name on here just so I know when he is talking to me so I don't upset him again

All I said on his site is

It's western boxing(rather than being tai chi)
And not very good at that(it was obvious he hadn't trained western boxing to any degree and there were better sources to learn that from )
Don't put power into the form let it naturally arise from the form

I won't be responding to matt on the Facebook site
Firstly because he doesn't earn it
Secondly because he doesn't give me that right on his own site where his customers can see it
I can refute all he says but he is not worth the effort
The only thing he got right was to call me a fool
I will admit to that
I have blocked him on Facebook so won't see any more of his posts
Please don't tell me what he says it's irrelevant

That outburst was unnecessary, but I won't comment it further. I deleted most of my comments and left the group. Doesn't feel right when the person in charge attacks two people I respect and enjoy discussing with. It wouldn't feel right to contribute to the group. Integrity first and always.


... Well, one procrastination opportunity less... Maybe I can get slightly more work done now. ;D

Yeah, I expected better out of him, but I should know better than that about people by now.

Matt Stamps group aka neijia boxer.
good guy, posted here for years.

There was no real need to be derogatory was there Wayne. I can undertsand that kind of comment not being appreciated anymore..
I don't really agree with censorship, but sometimes ignorance should be booted into touch.

performing just the strike is so similar to cross, what exactly did you want or expect from it for christs sake?
why should anyone cut you any slack when you clearly can't do that yourself.

BKTS is not anything near a boxing cross, or any straight punch/strike.

yea BKTS isn't, but the strike itself, certainly is.
this is common knowledge, anyone with the eyes to see.. can see it.
some experience with throwing crosses or rear hand, might help.

sure, and if I invited or let you in to my private party at my house you were a dick to me, you would be leaving pretty soon I imagine.
some people might recognise their behaviour for what it is, and act accordingly. Others, not so much.

what is it you might have to say to anyone about this, it's done. we can all just carry on with our personal opinions can't we.
elect ourselves judge, jury or both.

Can't we Wayne.
as always i await your peer reviews with baited breath.

hoorah! for the tai chi self appointed QC team!! ;D

the end posture of BKTS is not an strike to the front. that should be common knowledge, its so easily spotted if just having a glance at the whole sequence, and crystal clear if practicing it
