Sorry people, moved house, got drunk, forgot I existed, lost my favourite strips of lean tissue, met loads of people from the TAGB and argued until I fell over.
Hardgainer..I meant fencing as in the use of certain techniques to put a likely opponent in a worse situation... like the following exchange..
"You gonna git ya head kicked in!"
"Is you mother called Emily?"
"Wha..?" Smack.......
Or
"I don't like you face..."
"I'm sorry" apologises putting hands forward covering half distance...
or whatever, the methods of standing in possible situations that reduce an opponents options and make you choices less so enabling more control of the situation should an altercation occur...that sort of thing.
The psychologyof the student as well as the aggressive opponent is often less understood by shrinks than people who have persued this sort of thing, and it sounds like you have a cool approach anyhow.
By awareness, I just meant standard street savy, staying in well lit areas, keeping with people, not going down alleys, just not putting yourself in a vulnerable position...
...and yeah, I did mean William Cheung, I laughed out loud when I read my post again...daft bugger I am. I have not seem Bill in action so won't comment but I have found some of his articles a bit disturbing...and some of his books...well, not as bad as Austin Gohs anyway. If you want a book to avoid try The Braking Power of Wing Chun...realy realy bad.
Right, now that I have fallen off the band wagon I am gonna go have another beer, loose some more precious weight and maybe, just maybe, look at the wooden man...see if he wants a conversation about the Olympics...
