Matsuda's monkey dvds

[bodhi warrior]

I was wondering if anyone had purchased or seen any of michael matsuda's monkey kung fu dvds? I am aware of his history and i'm not concerned about that. Just curious what the dvds were like.
Thanks

They're like a dude who thinks that pointing his ass at the sky is martially applicable in some way.

It's called, "ass to the sky"


Nothing at all like "carry the moon" like the rest of us do.

So, you know who he is, where he's from and what they're involved in and your still interested?

Isn't that like spending your last 30 bucks to go to a Lady GoGo show with the backup performer Beyondsay?

p.s yes, I CAN spell.

I think they are a MUST HAVE for all practitioners of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

well, he's now moved into teaching "Taoist Yoga" retreats and workshops to the new age crowd, so I think he's moved beyond the whole MA thing (w the new agers, no one challenges you to fight, they just dump their childhood traumas on u in a passive aggressive manner; but their $'s usually good...)

But he's very trong

Tai Shing Monkey style kung fu
Commonly called Tai Shing Pek Kwar, the actual term is "Tai Shing," "Pek Kwar" has nothing whatsoever to do with Monkey. It is an axe fist style very similar to Choy Li Fut. Because one instructor mastered both styles, he referred to the school by both names. Tai Shing is the youngest of all three styles. It was created around 1911 by Grand Master Kou Sze, and is the only style to be based upon five monkey characteristics (lost, tall, drunken, wooden and stone). No other monkey style uses these five foundations. It is an extremely brutal art designed with strong and powerful striking techniques. It was never designed as a performance art. There are no Indian or Taoist Yoga movements in the art, these contortionist movements were used by a competitor to iTai Shing Monkey style kung fu

Grand Master Chan Sau Chung is the only living Grand Master of the art and the only individual who can rightfully use the title of "Monkey King." (Tai Shing has five forms plus a staff form)
