Can anyone identify this style??

Hey,

I was just walking through a mall and in a small dojo saw two guys fighting. after and before the fight they would bow in this manner:

Make a fist with the right hand, put it inside the left hand and bow

Can anyone recognize this style? maybe BJJ or something similar?

Standard kung-fu salute.

I see you practice BBJ. Except for grappeling, are there any fighting while you are standing with kicks and punches?

Some dojos teach it. However, walking into most BJJ schools and expecting to learn good standup fighting is like walking into McDonalds and expecting a gourmet meal served with a fine wine. This is why most strict BJJ players who want to get into the MMA scene usually box on the side.

So do you think it’s good to learn another martial art to supplement bbj or can bbj by itself be more than necessary to subdue an attacker when you start fighting standing up.

I guess what I’m asking is do you get the guy down and then use techniques? are there technique to bring someone to the ground from the standing position?

Most BJJ places in my town have a separate striking curriculum (usually Muay Thai). I’d imagine a good number of them around the US have this same thing.

There’s really no such thing as a standard kung fu salute, each style has it’s own.

My best guess from what he’s said it that it is a Wing Chun school.

can you give a link to some info about this school?

Is that so? I assumed it was standard kung-fu salute since I’ve seen it done in different kung-fu styles. Apparently, it’s also used in sanda.

the best part of bbj is the techniques you put on the guy bring him down good !

Dude, did you get one of those new blenders where you put a sentence in and then it comes out all fucked up?

Thats just standard New Jersey-ese.

I think this sentence used one of said blenders.

sarcasm

Maybe in SOUTH Jersey… :icon_wink

And billybob, why don’t you just go to a local BJJ school or two and watch, instead of posting “How do takedown?” Wasn’t there a sign on this mall dojo?

-or- just go here www.bjj.org and here www.lockflow.com (click Grappling techniques)

Oh yeah, and: “search function, n00b” :google: Welcome to Bullshido, biotch!

Psssst. you forgot to type Owned at the end.

It wasn’t a dojo, simply like a gym or someplace with a mat and two guys fighting. I didn’t have time to talk to them

Yeah, that would taken soooooooo long. “Excuse Me, can i ask what you guys are doing?”. Then when they told you, you just yell “GONG SAU, BIOTCHHHHHHHH!!!” :eatbabies

Yes. The salute is traditionally the signature of the master or style of that particular art.

better than my salute.
