Gary, I sent you an email with the terminology and here are a few things you can work on with the dummy. Start in a ready position in front of the dummy...remember to visualize the dummy as an actual person. You are in a right bai jong(right lead) (1) you are going to start out by throwing a right biu jee (finger jab) as you do this your left foot will slide up and lightly touch your right foot, (2) as you pull your right hand back you will deliver a low kick (to the leg) with your right foot, (3) step down with your right foot(do not bring your right foot back, instead set it down where it is after the kick)  and immediately pak and hit ( for this drill pak with your left hand and hit with your right) and trap his left arm, (4) Jut sao (jerking hand) with your right hand and straight blast to the chest with your left, (5) left vertical elbow to the chin, (6)  trap arms with left hand/forearm and hit with right hand, (7) slap side of head with right hand and cup the head as you deliver a left horizontal elbow to the side of head.

I know this is alot of stuff and it will never go down like this in a real fight but one of the things this is teaching you is to hit multiple times and do not stop after one or two hits. Work this on the dummy until you have it down and are efficient at it. Then bring in a live partner and run through it again and you will see how important the footwork is. You will have to follow your opponent and keep pressure on him, but if you do it fast enough and with enough force you will see that in many cases the unskilled fighter will be overwhelmed.

Gary, did you get my email with the Jun Fan terminology? I sent it to you thru this site...if not let me know and i will send it to you again but it will be tomorrow morning.

Tim, i sent him a email like you said and that's for the info.  gary

Hello all. Thought I would chime in and start some more talk on this subject. Trapping is something that most of us (being the circle of people I have trained with) feel that is a "range" that we spend a great amount of time training and practicing all the wonderful traps/suppressions/deflections and the intricate "this could happen and this probably could happen in this situation with this type of energy/stimulus" drills, knowing that we probably will only get the chance to use a quick slap or press or grab or jerk in the course of our Offense/Defense. That being said!

Let's talk about the similarities and differences of Kali and WC (Wing Chun) trapping. someone give me an example of a similarity and I will start it off.

Kali has a slapping hand tech that is close to the way WC uses. As the punch comes in a straight line to your nose - you get your head out of the way and Slap the arm of your attacker, deflecting is attack.

Now your go.

Tracy...good to see you in here again. I know you have been busy with the movie/film stuff so thanks for taking the time brother. Ok, on to your post.

Kali: your opponent throws a straight punch (straight right for the purpose of explaining) you will do a split entry(your left hand does outside parry and your right hand goes to his face), then bring your right hand back and check his arm as your left hand shoots to his face/eyes for strike, then bring your left hand back scooping his arm to the outside to open up his centerline as you throw a vertical right elbow. You can end here or can continue on with the rest of the drill. I like the first part because it is very fast. It sounds like there is alot to do and that it will never work; but the split entry is designed to work best when your opponent pulls his striking arm back in. You follow his arm in as it retracts.

 Also, Kali has the scoop. When you opponent throws a straight punch you simply scoop it. Kinda like a parry but instead of "slapping" out of the way you will slap it then scoop it to open him up for a follow up attack.

Also what about the Kali guntings? Those are great for a guy who likes stay on the outside and punch. Can really mess up the guys hand. 

Tim McFatridge:

Kali and WC have a similar principle of sticking to your opponents arm as they retract/attack. Like you stated above Tim, a great example. Though WC tends not to split entry. The principle of sticking is very apparent in both systems. You can absolutely see this in action when watching boxing or MMA/BJJ fights.
