I Give Up Kung Fu is lost

So do you think that forced it underground and was a closed door thing, or do you think everyone just followed that rule? China has a long history of going against the state and keeping quiet about it. Instead of protesting and lining up to be slaughtered by the state, they just shut up about it and keep it in the fam. No?

shaanxi villlages preserved chinese wrestling by wrestling at night.

but when the government lifted the marital art ban in 1850s chinese wrestling never got popular again, because chinese boxing took on a mystical and performance oriented element.

I guess people were so used to watching performances they forgot what real fighting actually looks like.

It's ironic, like in the US is such a huge wrestling country, but when combined with standup, they still just wanna see somebody get punched out and boo when there is high level technical grappling unless it's continuously kinetic. And even then, they only tolerate it for a short time.

I wonder if anyone is teaching the Shanxxi style wrestling outside of China...

beijing shuai jiao is hard core, i did it for three. the guys i trained with live at the school and train 6 days a week 4 hours a day. they do lots of strength training traditional and modern. they spar all out regularly. compete regularly and are straight up bad ass. i already had a black belt in traditional jujitsu and a green belt in judo,and the guys even 25 pounds lighter then me would easily toss me around. so anyone doubting the effectiveness of beijing shuai jiao needs to go train for themselves before typing too much.

I can see why they beat you so badly. A black belt in traditional jujitsu is no more helpful against seasoned athletes than a black belt in knitting.

mongols banned it in 1200s to 1300s then manchus banned it from 1700s to 1911.

That's because wrestling is gay.
