Thatās fine. I would like it myself. Anecdotes arenāt enough , but I still feel and see some tai chi in wing Chun. Perhaps itās my unique experience but based on what I was told by the wing Chun guy regarding tai chi influence I wouldnāt doubt there was truth to it.
Iām not sure who you meant but tai chi was Tuesday, hsing i Thursday, and BaGua saturday , and unlike many tai chi studios, we were a wutang boxing school, so we actually learned the fighting applications of tai chi Chuan, meaning Iām a boxer trained by a boxer. I donāt think yip man did seminars, I donāt do seminars, (I do hours and hours of training with a sifu, in/out of class, etc)ā¦so yes, we agree, people who arenāt wutang students really couldnāt speak on it with knowledge, and vice versa, a wing chun guy wouldnāt know about wutang.
I commented because of the higher states of consciousness internal /Wu tang schools catapult you into , versus the slower paced later advanced chi work seen in shaolin /external . Itās just opinion and not important to the art . They end up all being the same really in the end, same goal, different paths, and mastery usually means difference on the same parity
