People in my school training? Are you trying to get the others kicked out as well??? :O

j/k. No. No one else trains as hard as me. And I only do an hour a day. They're all "busy" working and in something else. I question their sincerity since even the seniors - above a year - look like beginners with a few months of training. Ex. stance sprawled out, footwork and balance are flimsy, etc.

All-in-all, there's no one. I've been trying since August - I started in May - to train with someone outside of class. But when the people don't even do what's given to them in class then how can you expect them to go out and above?

I'll try grabbing someone to try those things. I was browsing online and found Sifu Duncan Leung's website.

He states:

"4. SPEED OF REACTION: In general, people spend most of their time practicing their techniques in their forms alone until they are very good with all the techniques, but in actual combat the application is ineffective. This is like learning to ride a bicycle by sitting in a chair moving the legs and arms simulating the bicycle experience. When that person actually tries to ride on the bicycle, he or she will surely fall. This is because the proper reflexes and feeling of balance have not been developed. Yip Man used to say if you want to learn to swim, go down to the water; don’t just move your arms and legs and think that you are a swimmer. A fight requires at least two people. You can train and fight with yourself all day long, but unless you apply the techniques with another person, you will not get very far."

I keep this in mind when training....
