This is Sarm Tong Gwo Kiew (from the first form of Lung Ying)

This is the first version that was taught to me. I will post the other version as well. We didn't get to do a 2 men application with this one this week. Sunday mornings, what can we say? Enjoy

nice pics! we bend a little lower when performing this move though.

Glad you like it. This move has more than one version and application wise they are slightly different.

Keep um coming Mantis! :)

Good form.
Please explain what the opponent is doing, for you to execute this move correctly?
What is the timing? If you timed it wrong what would be your next move?

I am not trolling and I wish you would not take things personally.

Yours sincerly,
Cloud one.

Seriously, your assumption is just... nontheless, your questions here have technical merits. I will answer them. This is my approach and do not represent anything but my own understanding of the technique.

The Sarm Tong is used to intercept (do not block) the opponent's right jab. Make use of footwork.

1) If the jab has commitment (slower more power) to it, it is possible to intercept under the elbow or the tricep. Follow through and trap (temporary) his right arm against his chest. If he resists the trap and forces his right arm toward you or tries to shift stance by withdrawing the front right leg, quickly follow up with Gwo (gor) Kiu. If he's very quick in shifting with his footwork follow through with bik bo double push or Sheung Mah larm dah.

2) If the jab has no commitment (fast) to it (opponent feints), do not withdraw the Sarm Tong hands. Quickly follow with bik bo 3 Soy Kiu (hammer fist) or the Soy Kiu - Bui Gim - Gau Pak combo. The attack should remain at and follow the original line of intended engagement (where the opponent withdrew his hand).

The cross (including elbows), low line kick or slipping (most effective)would possible counter by the opponent. But then that is beyond the scope of this thread.

Please don't add emotion or conclusion to my replies. Thanks. BTW, thanks for the compliment.

Thanks for the reply.
Is this a basic or advanced technique?
From what you are saying you will move to his off-side weather he is commiting or feinting his jab.

What happens if he has a left foot stance and he jabs with his right?
Could or would you do the same move?
Sorry I forgot to mention I know nothing about Lung Ying. From what I hear the stances are different to Pak Mei, but the arm applications are the same. Correct me if I am wrong.
Always willing to learn,

"Thanks for the reply.
Is this a basic or advanced technique?"

No problem, I love technical discussion. IMHO, that is no such a thing as a basic or advance technique. A simple straight punch in the hands of the masters is just as devastating as everything else. Although this move is from a novice level form, there are different applictions taught at different stage. It doesn't mean that one application is better than another. It is just that the move is versatile. The advanced practitioner sees more options than the novice that's all.

"From what you are saying you will move to his off-side weather he is commiting or feinting his jab."

It would depend on the opponent. If facing a bigger, faster and smarter opponent, footwork is key for me. Otherwise, a direct approach is just as effective.

"What happens if he has a left foot stance and he jabs with his right?"

Ah... the right hand jab! Either he's a master of boxing or he's an arrogant fighter. This would mean he thinks that I am slow if he opens with the right hand jab. I would have to defang him with Soy Kiu or other hands, but definately defanging first. It's kind of arrogant to open with the right hand jab. For me on the save side, there is not much of a choice.

"Could or would you do the same move?"

After the defanging, yes.

Sorry I forgot to mention I know nothing about Lung Ying. From what I hear the stances are different to Pak Mei, but the arm applications are the same. Correct me if I am wrong.

footwork in Bak Mei appears to be more linear than that of Lung Ying. There are times when Bak Mei have tendency to more stick than to move. Lung Ying would be on the move more. I would think that's the animal spirits that the styles portray.

Always willing to learn,

Always willing to share. :)
