Hi may I ask where I can find the link for part 2 ? I clicked the link below but it only takes me to part 1. I purchased part 1 already but would like to purchase part 2 as well. Please advise if possible. Thx!
Very informative interview. Seeing Yiquan's techniques and training modernized to compete in Kickboxing and MMA is nice. The interviewer unfortunately sucks, He is a terrible listener and cuts off the people he is interviewing while there answering one of his questions, plus at times he will ask a question and before it can be answered, he asks another question. JC Yiquan please, ask Jerry from Fight Commentary Breakdowns for an interview, he will do a better job in getting you to express the Art plus effectiveness of Yiquan.
Wow . Brilliant interview , very unappreciated form . Like Systema is more about body dynamics . The standing forms are demanding in a way that is very subtle but when you persist and " feel " it at work you start to realise the benefit . The basics of this system has great benefits for our young to learn how to connect with their bodies and use them more efficiently . As people get older this is perfect exercise for people with limited movement . The therapeutic benefits are amazing , not just physical . I heard that some of the top fighters out Asia way incorporate this .
(Your feet don’t match your torso. )please don’t be upset, it won’t serve you. It’s impossible to watch you using the word Han and your presentation. It is severely not Han yiquan. “Li never can become Jin.” “Technique will never become feeling.” Your teacher got it backwards and in it will go. These are the principles of Han family yiquan. We have a large school. It is the Han family school. As in the Hans. It is a real thing. Come join us. There is much to do and much to learn.
You are a troll and I think you also need some professional help , you are andrew plack of Hawaii not andrew Black , you also have sent me many Facebook messages contradicting yourself - if you don’t stop and apologise for your behaviour I will publicly expose all your messages and this trolling of which I have screenshots of - this is a final warning.
Can you explain in what way this is yiquan training? Han xing Qiao was the yiquan Master with Shu ai jiao in his background. Wang didn’t have it. The dragon and tiger . I’m a student of theirs and so I’m curious what your idea is here. I assume you invented this as a supplemental training? It’s external and not using the condition that is the core of all movements in Han fanily yiquan. What do you seek to develop?
Using the ground to transfer power is 180 away from the Han brothers yiquan. They never ever did that, lightness and floating mass do not operate that way. Ground power is 100% external Kung fu. The article in Shanghai , in Jing An temple. Before Han xing Qiao Met Wang, he talks about lightness being the pinnacle of quan. Ti means lift. The body in lifting, the main quality of Han yiquan is lifting in the lower body feeling like “to run”. Of course you appear to address both yiquan and external Kung fu in your videos, mixing it. But the are truly opposite body mechanics and the proper habit cannot emerge mixed. If you can separate them, fine, but none that follow will be able to.
Your really digging a hole for yourself , I think you should go and take your medication and simmer down. Perhaps read a book on physics? All power is from the ground , internal or external or whatever term you want to use.
So Han family yiquan does not have imagination and mojin friction. That is confusing Yao with Han. And indeed some of the uncles school now seek supplemental ideas as they missed the boat. I am a closed door student of Han Jing Chen and currently I am instructing the old students in the uncles old park. Next I go to Hong Kong to train and on to China to see the Hans. I am their western representative. This instruction upsets the Han family because it is so poorly representing their very clear and real method of yiquan which has almost nothing to do with the Yao confusion. Yes I gave them your book. No it isn’t Han yiquan. Certainly not HSYQ. You could come learn it properly and I extend this offer formally. The dragon still lives and although your teacher was acting man, he never learned yiquan. Just Kung fu and that’s what you have turned it into. External hard Kung fu. Not bad but not Hsyq.
Your comments says for more about you than me. As Bruce Lee said “they only tackle the one With ball” BTW internal and external are modern terms all is gungfu, nothing more to say to you my jealous friend. Enjoy your training in China and hing kong , if I see you there or in the UK or US I’m happy to touch hands anytime.
Yiquan punching is VERY similar to how we punch in wing chun. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9pggVRRKQEE.html&ab_channel=AlanOrrWingChunAcademy
@@jcyiquan1359 What was it like? Also, what is their secret? Is it isometric based? They always talk about some force they can generate from their backside to the arm and also state they can put their centre of mass in their shots - which I find confusing.
@@AK_UK_ they are a nice and welcoming bunch of people but I didn’t experience any special power, secrets or aspects of what you are saying. I personally don’t think there are any secrets in martial arts.
awesome traditional artform! but, BJJ has pretty much proven to be the ultimate fighting system and let's be real, a REAL street fight, or attack, or put into a position of saving your own life etc.,etc. is NOT going to see opponents just standing there doing there techniques back and fourth, as is always the case they will be attacking, charging each other in any way possible and a lot of it ends up on the ground hence the BJJ system. that said and all things being equal-i'll stick with my 45acp to save my life. \m/ \m/
Thanks for your feedback, quite a lot in that!. Firstly, I have a huge amount of respect for BJJ as an art and practice, indeed my eldest son has trained 6 years in a great school and I have many friends who are practitioners and teachers of BJJ, alot of whom also practice these traditional arts. That being the point. I don’t personally think there is an ultimate fighting system. To be a great ‘fighter’ either ring, cage or street you need a well rounded skillset of standup, throwing and ground game with a high degree of physical fitness and conditioning and a ton of real experience. Style vs style discussions doesn’t go anywhere for me. We could argue over who is the best make of race car but you know if you go up against a great skilled driver with competitive experience they will drive anything and win.
I don't get this ground stuff. Every single fight or attack I have had has been brutal with swings and grabs and pokes and catches and .. you don't want to be on the concrete rolling round in broken glass and filth and surrounded by a gang of crazies with whatever they have. Surely a few moves then run or stay up. I saw BJJ videos of guys controlling single thieves then going numb waiting for the cops. Also death is a possibility. Concrete, curbs, cards, walls...One wrong move and the person is in the cemetery. I had mates who taught martial arts and BJJ, JUDO etc, all ended up in hospital. One got bricked from behind, another trapped behind a car door and knocked out, one was pinned down on a car bonnet.. My last attack had me on a staircase surrounded by 6 alcoholics. No chance of going to the ground there as there wasn't one, just metal steps. I think real self defense is needed to learn to handle real situations outside with multiple drunk and drugged up people and gangs. Martial arts are great for many things but also train for what you need. Same problem for the taichi people taking on MMA people. Horses for courses. Nothing covers everything.
@@ytb460I believe there is merit in having ground skills if you want to be all rounded. The ability to take people down , not be taken down, pin and escape from positions and apply chokes and locks are good skills.
@@jcyiquan1359Very true but it seems there are endless BJJ commenters who say take him down take him down etc. A bit of everything is a good idea so you have options and also just enjoy learning.
Thanks mate, it’s funny I had expected hate from the crazy people on this but also on some who either didn’t watch with volume or only watched the first but 🤣🤣🤣
God solid Boof. 💥😉👍a cross punch, my rule of thumb is, it’s a bonus punch. A linker. It finishes. It links. Not used alone though. Isolated to demonstrate yes. Thrown by itself. Throws off the balance. That said. That’s one hell of a shot you have there. I do everything empty handed. No pads. More realistic on the forearm and hands. ☮️🤛💥☺️👍just ideas. 😉🙏
I really like your videos, I hope you will upload more soon. It’s hard to find this type of contents. Maybe you won’t have tons of visualizations, but who’s here has probably a very keen interest in your knowledge and experience. Best wishes
I was wondering about the other types of yiquan kicks. Are there any good videos on RU-vid demoing them ? I have seen an interesting low instep kick that looks like it is evading a sweep then attacking the opponents inside knee and raking down the shin and onto their foot.
Yiquan is concerned with whole body connection and power over 6 directions of force, every step is a potential kick. A lot of the stepping has influence from bagua zhang (kou bo/ bai bo) these can be sweeps, trips or kicks to the inside or outside.
