TWO APPROACHES IN LEARNING COMBAT APPLICATION
Grandmaster Wong slices the hand of his opponent to disarm him of his weapon
There are two main approaches in learning combat application in both unarmed and armed combat, namely situation-pattern approach and pattern=situation approach. In the situation-pattern approach we examine various combat situations and find out suitable patterns from our sword set to handle these situations. In the pattern-situation approach we find out how the various patterns in our sword set can be used in combat. Here, Grandmaster Wong demonstrates some important ways how a sword should and should not be used in combat.
