	FIGHTING WITH STYLE
		These styles are extremely rude: they grab you and trap your arms while hitting, move sideways and in triangles, fight in medium ranges using both hands equally, kick at the knees and groin to prevent their feet from being caught, and usually teach weapons.
		Short-range styles usually draw the hand to the chest (boxing) or the elbow of the opposite arm (chyu ga, wing chun), allowing for faster strikes and blocks, since there is less distance to travel.
		Styles that fight with the shoulders square (allowing equal reach with both hands) usually don't advocate spinning; if the opponent gets too far to one side, they twist or step back.

		I thus find myself in the odd position of fighting a style so old that it is new--most of the fighters I encounter, at least in my part of the Middle Kingdom, are almost entirely unfamiliar with it.
		The purpose of this essay is to explain that style of fighting, in its original form and as I have modified it over the years.
		If someone fighting in a particular stance cannot throw a blow, the fact that he cannot block it very well is not important--as long as his opponents use the same stance.

		A typical snake style action used by Wing Chun is to deflect an incoming strike with minimal movement, attack towards the center with a horizontal Bil sau strike, and follow with a Gum sau (pressing hand) plus strike.

		In terms of an "offensive" fighting style I would recommend muay thai as a quick way to be able to handle yourself in a fight.
		From my own experience I would rather fight someone who knows what they are doing with their hands and feet then someone skilled with knees and elbows.
		Empty handed styles are great, but always remember that in a streetfight a huge amount of it is all about multiple attackers, rear attacks, sucker punches, weapons, distractions, etc, that you will never encounter in a gym.
