Congratulation! Will it be OK to share your black belt testing requirement?

[wiz cool c]

thanks. basically about three years ago before i moved from beijing to shenzhen,me and yao had a class together, i was his top student and assistant instructor. at that time he mentioned i am at about a brown belt level,and within a years time i will be at black belt level. well shortly after i moved to shenzhen.

while in shenzhen,i was forced to teach a few martial arts buddies and train with them, seek out some local judo clubs to maintain what i had learned. there is really no shuai jiao out here in shenzhen. and from what i hear the hong kong shuai jiao isn't very good.

recently yao came to shenzhen for about two months, and we met up four days a week and trained. we trained our basics,throws solo drills some belt cracking ,nothing too fancy, yao has taught me just about everything he knows in shuai jiao.

we spared every class,mostly[qiang shou]grip sparring, cause we are both recovering from knee surgery. sometime yao would throw me,but i wouldn't attempt any throws on him cause his recovery is still in the early stages. the second to last day before he left shenzhen,he had one of his hong kong student come down to train and have a little match. the next day he awarded me my black belt.

Have you ever met any "心意六合 (XingYi Liu He)" teacher in China? That will be a style I love to train. I have always believd this is the best TCMA "power generation" system. They train a lot of drills (not forms) and that's what I like about it. A very powerful style.

i never heard of it but i asked my teacher about it today. he said it is a two man set with a lot of grappling in it. and that in shaolin it takes 6 years to learn don't think he teaches it.

sorry wiz anyone younger than me I call young man out of politeness. LOL take it as a compliment you don't look 42 that's good thing. I don't feel look 50

good job man! whats the inside scoop with yao and ufc? :D

he is being prepped for the ufc. last year they sent him to train with frank mir,to improve his skills. they want more chinese fighters in the ufc. and yao is from the same training camp as Zhang Tie Quan[ correct me if i m wrong]this is the only chinese fighter in the ufc. i dont remeber the guys name i searched it.but i know yao is from the same camp as the chinese fighter in the ufc.

and yao being from a shuai jiao makes him especially interesting. he has to win two more fights ,then he should be in. and i am in the process of making hsi ring entrance fight song for him. he goes by the name the master. you best believe there will be some last dragon samples in that.

A lot of the elements in this clip are in your Mantis. You wouldn't just drill your Mantis?

That's a good clip for technical discussion.

You should start another thread :)
