I haven't gotten that far but my sifu says soon, so I'm hoping and keep training. What I can contribute is that when I see people train on the Mui Fa Jeong, its very different compared to what I see at my school. My sifu also makes a comment that most people who train on it today have no idea what it actually means. I proceeded to ask what he meant and he said I will get it soon, but that the hop gar footwork is completely different from practically all styles.
In his book the term used to name the footwork is kaymenbo (sp?). Apparently that translates to footwork against everyone else's or something along that line. All I know is that discussing and training the footwork with my sifu my understanding of Kung Fu in general has skyrocketed. It has helped me in my "scruffles" when I'm bouncing or sparring with my mma friends. Since I don't know that much about it though, I don't want to comment on it really since I don't want to say something that isn't true. However my sifu has put out an open invitation for anyone to come visit, call or attend his intensives.
