Why It‘s Always In The Wrist πͺ
Hello Enter Shaolin Family! β‘
Hope you’re doing amazing and keeping those Kung Fu vibes strong! β¨ We had an incredible Member Q&A on April 19th, 2025, packed with powerful insights, a few laughs, and some serious “a-ha” moments. π If you missed it (or just want a fun recap!), you’re in the right place. Let’s dive into the key takeaways that’ll help you get even more out of your training! πͺ
April Highlights π:
πΉ Welcome New Members! We kicked things off welcoming Russell β our newest Abbot Member! π₯³ Welcome to the family, brother!
πΏ Importance of Training with Different Sizes Cesar shared how training with taller partners like JC (6’6″!) challenges your skills. Reminder: Always practice with people of ALL shapes and sizes. π¨βπ¦βπ§
π₯ Replays Are Your Best Friend Watching replays = secret weapon! π·οΈ Repetition isn’t just good, it’s necessary. Don’t just show up live, watch the replays and soak in those golden nuggets. π
𧬠Member Critiques β Real Progress in Action!
- Melanie got valuable feedback about βnot leaningβ and pivoting smoothly.
- Clint leveled up his Siu Lim Tao form with pro wrist adjustments! π§¨
- Caesar impressed by handling BIG pressure β but learned how to “float” instead of fight! βοΈ
Training Wisdom π‘:
1. It’s Always In The Wrist! π
- Structural integrity = CONTROL.
- Small wrist movements > big shoulder movements.
- Parallel technique = smoother energy flow.
2. Never Fight Force with Force βΈοΈ
- Don’t push against strength.
- Convert, redirect, neutralize.
3. Root Down, Rise Up! π£π±
- Base through your legs.
- Power from the ground, not from leaning.

Final Takeaway and Action Steps π₯:
