Wing Tsun is an absolute Joke

[Asriel]

That's not hugely expensive for good training but is a real stinger if you're not enjoying it. Seeing as you have to pay anyway I'd recommend not going mate. All you're going to do is pick up bad habits.

I didn't realise you're in the UK, whereabouts are you?

[gecco69]

Norfolk.

Well I don't know If I'll start another art after this as I'm getting too old.

[gravious]

I have rolled with a guy who is well over 50 and had just received his purple belt after starting training in BJJ about 5 years ago.

Helio the eternal undead still rolls, for chrissake.

I doubt you are too old.

[Asriel]

Gravious has a very valid point mate. How old are you and what arts interest you?

[Silvan]

Do you get good exercise from it?

I can't help but feel that if the OP had come in saying "BJJ is an absolute joke, I destroyed everybody at this unspecified dojo because of my powwalifting skillz" everybody would have started howling.

Hive mentality of the Internet ;)

That is because it would have been a lie.

I didn't actually believe his claim of smashing up his sifu but decided to turn a blind eye to it to try and help the guy get out of a shit school.

@Shawarma

I only mentioned that in regards to that my Sifu (and everyone else in WT) is saying that strengh doesn't matter in WT.

@Silvan

No I don't. Most of the time we do the forms etc... quite boring.


And no I don't want to mention the exact dojo as they seem as an organisation like scientology & I don't want the to come after me!!

I didn't smash anyone as we don't fight in our school.

Please read again. All I said was that I smashed him on the floor when he wanted to demonstrate a grappling attack on me.

I'm sure my Sifu will beat me in a real fight. But then again he has been training in his arts for more than 6 years & I have 0 martial arts experience.

But I'm also sure that none of the other Students would be able to beat me altough they've been training a lot longer than me.

Therefore WT doesn't work.

[Asriel]

So he was teaching Grappling? :laughing5 Has he ever learnt any proper grappling or is this WC crappling?

[gecco69]

I presume it was WT grappling.

[gecco69]

Also we had a guy in our class that only went once to a training in 2 months & was still allowed to grade & move up to the next level. (as long as they get the money they don't care).

When this happened I decided not to take part in gradings anymore.


As this is my only Martial Arts experienc & it is a very bad one.

I wouldn't know what else to start with after my contract finishes.

Whereabouts are you and what are you looking for?
