    Two Handed Jian

    So what do you guys think of this article?

    Two handed jian is a commonly practiced weapon in Mainland mantis styles. Yet in the article Yu seems to take credit for single-handedly resurrecting the weapon from ancient times. How do his claims fit in with what you may know about the history of the mantis two handed sword forms?

    I know that two handed jian is taught by the following mantis instructors on the mainland:


    Zhou Zhendong - TJTLQ ---> Li Feilin + Sun De
    Sun Delong - TJMHTLQ
    Yu Tianlu - QXTLQ
    Zhang Bingdou - TJMHTLQ
    Zhang Daojing - LHTLQ
    Zhang Zhenyuan - TJMHTLQ

    There are two types of Chinese martial artists. Those who can fight and those who should be teaching dance or yoga!

    53 years of training, 43 years of teaching and still aiming for perfection!
