I even found some ancient music that syncs pretty close to it. What I love about Chinese history, is that it is so massive, if you just look long enough for a soundtrack to a form, you will probably...

Somebody's got to make a movie Shaolin Hockey that's like Shaolin Soccer. I liked that movie. I've been telling my nephew that's a professional hockey player that he's got to learn Spring and Autumn...
Sorry to hear of his passing. I learned the 108 Wu tai chi form that he used to teach. Please let us know if any YouTubes of the form are out there now...
Wonder if there's any historical examples of a sword handle having a heating element, whether gunpowder or gas? Watched the whole show. Could hardly follow it with so many commercials. Have not...
Well, if you want opinions, tell people what CW means! Ever try searching for something that is two letters? Eventually discovered that it stands for CBS/Warner, and then it took a while to find that...
Well, since its April Fools Day, there's also this https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Monkey%20Steals%20the%20Peach
No joke. This is the name of a move in the Choy Lay Fut long-fist...
It has to do with peach symbolism used mostly in religious Taoism. It is not well documented because its been considered part of folk-religion that was never much institutionalized. The peachwood...
Don't let your vaccine give you false self confidence, or you will be one of these:

Oh, I love wooden swords. I have some hardwood one that are weighted the same as the metal ones!
There's a long history of peachwood swords in China. Just do a search on it and you will find a...
I remember the Intros to his video tapes were always entertaining. Before YouTube existed, his videos were the only way to easily see some forms. I always wondered about that White Lotus Kung Fu...
Yeah, I see the spring analogy, but more like a watch-spring. One Chen form I do winds one way for the first third than the other way for the second third, and then symetrical for the last third. In...
I already get my quota of drama around here, but I like to watch CCTV Espaniol to help me learn Mandarin and Spanish better (at the same time), because all I know is Kung Fu Mandarin and Zumba...
Yo, those links revert back to their whole YouTube channel. Are there some there some specific episodes that you think are good, or better yet, some timecodes within those where there's good kung fu?...
High tops are constraining on flat surfaces, but I like hiking shoes if they are close to the ground without too much heel. They will also last much longer than any specialized footwear and protect...
I don't know what branch of Chen Tai Chi that I do, but it does have some similarity to CLF in that the arms are more extended and rotated from the center. Never really thought of that connection...
Well if you did some of the Chen whip movements with a closed fist they would be very close, but then they are very close to some Latin American dance moves too, although there's a little less likely...
Translated into American English that could be 8 directions. She's probably depending a lot on Baidu Translate that has a Hong Kong flavour AKA flavor...
Well then, this year you should try an online venue that allows any music soundtrack, including Google Drive. There's some awesome Kung Fu out there to music...
Okay, the following YouTube has the same CLF longfist form that I know. Although its an animation with the Samurai Kitty Robot Dancer, there are no cuts hidden in it, except for one digital-stitch...
That's a great idea to get the weapon in the house without upsetting the white tiger mother! Hey Gene, that's also a good opportunity for a new product-line at MartialArtsMart:...

Chi Kung, Tai Chi, and Kung Fu are all the same to me now. Sometimes I will do a slow form fast or a fast form slow...
That's nice to know ~ I bought an awsome telescoping samurai sword at Anime Expo but have been concerned its not historically-correct ... because it is straight ~ Actually, their handles are very...
Just like you, I've been doing more Yoga (and chi kung) every day, largely because right now I don't have the access to the places that I do big and/or fast forms.
Here's a rare find. The Ding...
Great books. I have many of them. Some are the only English translations of material that are out there, so they should be good. I would rather read these books than watch any movie...
