FOUR SEQUENCES OF ASKING BRIDGE

Asking Bridge

Sifu Roland Mastel and Grandmaster Wong demonstrating a combat application from Asking Bridge


To help students attain comprehensive skills in Asking Bridge in a systematic and cost-effective manner, Grandmaster Wong composed four sequences for their training. The skills and techniques are derived from Hoong Ka Asking Bridge, Wing Choon Sticking Hands, Wuzuquan Kneading Hands and Taijiquan Pushing Hands.

The techniques can be practiced using tiger claw, dragon hands or any suitable hand-forms. An important aim is to develop high-level sensitivity so that you may deflect an opponent's attack without looking at it. The "flow method", recently introduced in our school, proves to be very effective in this aspect as well as to develop internal force while practicing Asking Bridge.

An illuminating discussion of the Flower Set and Asking Bridge can be found here.

We would like to thank Sifu Roland Mastel for providing these videos.
