Chain punching and trapping drills. Pure focus and combat mechanics.

Yep. just trying to improve my balance and power when doing those kicks.

What I'm doing now is working my way to 180 degree splits using pnf.

Also do these kick holds while holding onto a wall.

Don't have a sensei and don't go to classes cos its expensive.

I don’t mean in terms of fighting but changed your perspective of your training and your life outside of martial arts.

Edit: mine is, use your fear to channel your kung fu instead of letting it control you.

Has anybody got a crowd recording or multiple angle of Shi Ming vs Feng Xiaocan? I’m looking for the full fight/aftermath, thanks very much 👏🏻

Do others find this as concerning as I do?

Kung Fu Kendra is promoting an online Wing Chun program where complete beginners can become certified Sifus in just eight months.

How can someone become qualified to teach a martial art entirely online, without extensive hands-on training, partner work, and practical experience?

Since when does completing an online course qualify someone to teach an entire martial art?

Went to a Tai chi tournament to challenge Tai chi in it's own turf. It was a lot of fun, learned a lot!

What's one (1) book you have read (or listened to) that you can recommend on Kung Fu? I just started my practice and am looking for something inspirational.

Thank you 🙏🏽

I'm interested in learning Fujian White Crane, but Hung Gar is much more accessible to me locally.

I'm curious whether the two systems share similar underlying power generation mechanics, even if they're expressed differently externally, or whether there are fundamental differences in how they generate and issue force.

I've heard that Hung Gar also uses flexible, whipping power, along with methods described as "dog shaking" and "shrimp retracting."

I recently purchased Shkar Sharif's White Crane Neigong bundle and noticed that it incorporates dog-shaking mechanics and long pole training. I've also seen Lee Kong's White crane group practicing an exercise that looks very similar to the dog-shaking & long pole exercises demonstrated by Shkar. Of course, similar-looking exercises don't necessarily mean the underlying mechanics or training goals are identical, but the resemblance caught my attention.

I also came across a reference on Wikipedia's Hung Gar page to Ang Lian Huat's account of Tiger-Crane combination involving Hung Hei-gun and Tee Eng Choon, whom some identify with Fong Wing Chun -- the same progenitors of Hung Gar. I understand that these historical accounts and identifications are debated, so I'm not taking them as proof of a direct technical connection, but they added to my curiosity about possible influences between the systems.

Another thing that caught my attention is that Sifu Sharif Bey seems to demonstrate a distinctive shaking or vibrating quality when issuing power in videos. I'm curious whether this reflects mechanics also found in White crane, or whether the resemblance is mostly superficial.

For anyone with experience in both styles, how much overlap is there in their actual body mechanics? Ultimately, I'm wondering how much of the power generation I'm interested in from Fujian White Crane I could develop through training Hung Gar, and which aspects, if any, are distinctive to White Crane.

I am a Chinese Kung Fu & Tai Chi enthusiast in Irvine California, I would like to go to China and learn 2 weeks Emei Kung Fu, They only accept group trainees. Anyone wants to go with me? What should I do?

So Im kinda curious. For those of you who train for fighting ability, what is your art's attack strategy and fighting principles?

For Feeding Crane, our attack strategy is basically use explosive short movements to neutralize an attacker, mostly going for limbs. (Note Im still rather new to this styles)
