“I think the kicks in Wing Chun are enough. It´s much easier to use your hands than to use your feet. Your hand is able to reach your opponent long before your foot. Why take the long way to attack (circle), when there is a much more direct method of attack? If you are using your hands, then your opponent can´t see a kick coming if you have to use it. When you teach Kung Fu, you can fool a lot of people, but not yourself. You can make like a movie and do many complicated movements and kicks, but you only fool yourself as to whether that would work in a real situation of life and death.” PeopleIfsThinkingWayLongRealEnoughUseHandsAbleSituationTeachFeetMovementFoolEasierDirectMethodWingsComplicatedCirclesOpponentsKicksLife And DeathLong WayKung FuWing Chun Author:Wong Shun Leung

“Whether we're fighting climate change or going to space, everything is moved forward by computers, and we don't have enough people who can code. Teaching young people to code early on can help build skills and confidence and energize the classroom with learning-by-doing opportunities. I learned how to fly a hot air balloon when I was 30,000 feet up and my life was in the balance: you can learn skills at any age but why wait when we can teach everyone to code now!” PeopleEnoughHelpingAgeYoungFightingOpportunityWaitingSpaceTeachAirFeetTeachingBalanceSkillsComputerHotMovedClimateClimate ChangeCodeClassroomBalloonsLearning By DoingHot AirAir BalloonsHot Air Balloons Author:Richard Branson
