Roll Back to Split


If you are familiar with the Chen forms, it is clear to see that this picture is just a couple of seconds following the previous pic used. Shifu was explaining to us the difference in timing and energy of the given motion and application. At the earlier stages we have roll back which on its own can be effective. Very shortly after the roll back motion, it can translate into the splitting action (Lieh, I believe is the term.) It was very gratifying to see Shifu going over the details so finely. I'm proud of all my classmates as we are all clearly improving and growing steadily in the knowledge and skill that Shifu shares with us.
