Oh my lord... I learned this form when i was 11 years old. I had literally forgotten about it. You brought up memories, and im practicing again. Thank you. ❤
I think its 'hard work' instead of sweating. Its time, and hard work. So in conclusion kung fu means the time you spend working hard to achieve what you want.
That is one of the best ways to explain how a real street fighting techniques would actually go down if you can have all the training but if you don't have the actual heart to fight then you probably won't be able to use it
this is basically the same thing my hung gar kungfu coach told me... "you only master kung fu when you conquer yourself, when you conquer fear, and master a calm mind"
Excellent advice, it often is up to the practitioner, not the style, although there are fake styles, before the Mao attacked martial artists during the so called "cultural revolution", killed the best an placed their "martial artists" in place of the actual people. Master was 86th generation Shaolin Hunan Wushu, an he was away when things started getting bad.
I think make them stronger because of there own unique fighting skill me learning my own kung fu moves i know it's hard and impossible to make but no one can beat your competitive self❤
Thats crazy because as someone who has never trained, but had people try to jump me twice I was surprised when I was actually able to fight back and throw punches. And im not saying I know how you fight its just when push came to shove instincts kicked in for me and I surprised myself🤷🏽♂️
I think it's necessary to adapted to street situation but is possible. The problem is , Kung Fu today has been practicing like a sport and dance only for many people, so in a street situation they can't defend yourself I"m a lucky guy for find a real master that teach me and prepare me for street. The original objective of Kung Fu and other martial arts is the war
People always say this form is useless against other martial arts, which if true, The thing is most people with a martial arts discipline have enough respect for other people for that fighting is last resort. So the only people you actually fight In the streets are thugs and thief’s who have no level of training for the most part
Unfortunately there’s now a lot, a lot of footage, of kung fu/ Shaolin guys getting smashed by even intermediate level boxers/ kickboxers. The biggest issues with traditional Chinese martial arts, is they don’t spar. It was painfully obvious these masters have never actually taken a punch before. On top of that, they prioritize aesthetics of the move over actual effectiveness
@@1chakayeah I agree, but I am hopeful that the Kung Fu dojo where I train at least has the spars, I was disappointed whenever I saw those videos of Kung Fu artists getting smacked.
