    WOW!

    That almost brought tears to my eyes. That video was not just about authentic kung fu, but also about decades of love, dedication and training. Thanks for posting.

    PS. I bet this master could wipe the floor with any 70 year old glorified kickboxer.

    AH, to see that even at such an advanced age someone likes to "put on a show", warms my heart

    kong fu zi of con fu scious said

    life started at 70 Y.O.

    I do not know if I may make it that far.

    but

    some of the good fighters died young, a lot of wear and tear, I guess.

    Just thinking about TCMA and I remembered this clip. Isn't the point to be able to live well even in old age? I mean this guy's still doing cartwheels and I betcha his memory is sharp too. Using this clip as reference - TCMA wins.

    Is forms training the best way to spend your training hours when you are old? Do you suppose to do something "special" and "unique" when you are old?

    When you are 90 years old, you should have understand all the moves in your form. That form no longer add any value to your daily training.
