You are right about the non block. IMHO the WTF fighting style has caused a lack of emphasis in blocking skills.

BTW, I’m proudly (yet humbly) a WTF Yi Dan. Any one else out there belted?

wtf fighting is pretty flashy, I used to compete in the 80’s

But it did work as long as you stood toe to toe with someone, not on the mat

WTF didn’t prepare you for a real fight once it went to ground at all
