With this simple idea of taking the opponents space not with hands but with your body you can dominate and better control your opponent movements. By taking away a wing chunner space and centerline he simply has no answer to the situation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQYnevzdIQ4

a continuation to my first video Opening and closing the Center pt #1 A few more ideas on how to control opening and closing the opponents center. before striking. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9btup8o2f8

Internal arts to me means how one uses their whole body in a natural way instead of use brute strenght and speed to over come your opponet..

Thanks,,Glad you liked the video. I was over working it abit because I was actually teaching my student for the first time so I over did it..

Glad you liked the video.. I just trying to convey that I prefer to control the oponent first then move in then strike so I dont have to trade blows..

The Bong Sao am using with the Gan is not functing as a Bong Sao it function more like a lan sao but with a Bong sao shape.

A modification of the technique Gaun Sau and Kwan Sau used to create a hybrid technique called Bong Gaun. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abp9uhTWaTI&t=13s

I try to avoid saying this is older, more internal because it tends to get some people upset so I just leave it up to the reader to decide for them self.

Thank for sharing stonecrusher69The nipple line as you are calling it is "The Yin line" As the nipples define the borders of Yin and between the Yin line to the shoulders represents the Yang area. The two vertical lines are the Yin lines, that pass through the nipple, the area between these two lines represent the one Yin gate, from the head down to the toes. The Yang lines are the vertial lines of the shoulders, the Yang lines and Yin lines are creating two outside gates, from nipple to shoulder. Keeping the elbow fixed, is the "Imovable elbow principle" The Pak Sao with energy moving horizontally or sideways from the opponent, violates the forward energy principle; with your minimal version, keeps it in the maximum efficiency principle of Wing Chun. Doing the Pak Sao while moving in to the opponent should make it a deflection and not a block; as Wing Chun aviods blocking more in favor of parries and reflections. In your description of Pak Sao, it could also be a palm strike to the side of the opponent's head, in clinch type situation standing or on the ground. Having said all that, with my version of the dos and don'ts of Wing Chun, I'm in total agreement with your explanations. Once again Thanx for sharing. Thanks.. Glad you liked it.. I left a few things out on the video I wanted to cover but I got the main Idea across.. The Yin and Yang lines I think I heard this terminaolgy from the HFY people. or Benny Meng not sure..

In the movie "Inter the DRagon" when Bruce fought O'Hare thats a classic example of crossing the bridge and Pak Sao

In this video I explain the proper execution and theory of the inside Pak Sao. In the Wing Chun system ,and How it should be done and my reasons why? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xAs-nYaKeVE&t=1s

This sums it up nicely..."The internal martial arts is just as big as the external, the difference is one is seen and the other needs to be felt. "

yes your right in that" to just to just cross over the bridge is not enough" you need to control, it will depend on how well each person can do that that will decide the victory.

To Stick or Not To Stick ? The wrong application of Chi Sao is believing you can stick to your opponent while fighting. Well, unless your opponent is playing the same game,it's not possible. While your trying to stick or stay connected to your opponent bridge he will be striking you..You will be at least a half a beat behind him at all times, however, having a high level of skill in Chi Sao, can gives you a big advantage. But IMO to apply it that way is a gross misunderstanding and a mistake..You should be hitting your opponent not trying to play a Chi Sao game. Use your skills to strike your opponent and don't waste anytime..Use the skills you've developed to assist you to control and interrupt your opponent's movement, but your primary focus should be on striking him. Don't look for a bridge to cross over,just hit your opponent. I guess Wong Shun Leung said it best "don't chase the hands"
