Mtal Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 I was wondering if there are any other martial arts out there with trapping like JKD or Wing Chung. Just like to look into some. Thanks. Jay Johnson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushido_man96 Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 I do know that there are some RBSD styles that adopt pieces of the trapping techniques from arts like Wing Chun. I have used some in my Combat Hapkido training as well. It is not as elaborate as is used in the Wing Chun system, though. It is the more basic elements that are used. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.A.L Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 part of Okinawan karate is based on chin-na, mostly in Naha-te. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gzk Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Apparently Pencak Silat does. Battling biomechanical dyslexia since 2007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazed and Confused Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Yes Silat does involve trapping. In fact in the syllabus my school trains it is the trapping derived from Silat that is mainly taught in JKD, rather than the slightly more complex techniques of Wing Chun (although they may be taught later, I'm only a beginner).

ps1 Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Poekoelan, which is very similar in many ways to silat, involves trapping. Not to the same extent as wing chun though. Same goes for Shotokan and, of course, most jujitsu styles use trapping. "It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenius."

Kante Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 What is trapping? "If you always put limits on what you can do, physical or anything else, it'll spread over into the rest of your life. It'll spread over into your work, into your mortality, into your entire being. There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you."Bruce Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ps1 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 What is trapping?It's a method of intercepting the opponent's strike and sucking them in with it. Most often a trap is followed up with multiple strikes to whatever sensitive areas are exposed at that moment. In Jujitsu, the trap is utilized but more often followed up by a joint attack of some sort. It's pretty effective, especially against an opponent who over commits to an attack. That's why many martial arts use trapping to some extent. "It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenius." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Treadaway Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Just about every Chinese style is going to have trapping.... Mantis kung fu, sil lum kung fu... the list goes on and on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why many martial arts use trapping to some extent.Oh, I did not know what it was due to the language difference. we practice this a lot. Sometimes for a whole lesson where we form a circle and someone stands in the middle. Then we start charging at him from all directions with weapons at times and he's to use these techniques to avoid being hit.But we're not obligated to only use these techniques, we also do quick joint manipulation or counter striking. We're free to react as we wish as the main point of this exercise to react freely.The greatest thing is when you practice this to the extent that it becomes a natural reaction.As for which martial arts include trapping, I practice Shotokan but don't count on that because we just train differently. So your best choice is Jujitsu. "If you always put limits on what you can do, physical or anything else, it'll spread over into the rest of your life.
