An Wushu - Xing Yi Quan 

So Glad back in 2007 I was able to provide my Hi8 Digital Camera Recorder for this filming! Great time in China! Shout out Nick And Jian Qiu!

I don't know why I prefer chinese martial arts over all other types, it has a different grace in it and it looks brutal and beautiful at the same time.

He uses the bagua stepping of toes and then heel to generate power. Impressive. I am going to learn and test it.

Thank you for The great video Masters An👍🇫🇮

The reason he makes the little step is so that he can release a stronger burst of power (发力 / 发劲). It can be applied in just about every form or Chinese martial arts. If you practice Xing Yi or another form of Chinese matrial arts you can try to do it to understand what I mean... When doing a movement control your energy and power and release it at the very end.

(for instance when punching, don't use all of your power from the moment you start moving your arm, but only at the last few inches before just hitting the target). It's the same principle with the little step. When taking one big step with a lot of power, it's almost impossible to get the explosiveness at the end.

At simple observation , I always thought Xingyiquan was very linear but over time I been seeing how varied and adaptable it could be to any combat situation. Truly an amazing art.

Well, I wouldn't waste my time comparing people publicly unless one was particularly fraudulant. I feel that Master An is very powerful, and I'll keep myself to promoting positives, rather than focussing on other people's negatives. I don't know Master An, nor have I trained with him, but my vote is that this is a real flower of Quan, from whom we can all learn something about correct power generation. Just as we can learn things from other videos.

The short stomp like action is not stomping but the transfer from the back leg to the front. You root through the heels. This action prevents you from an easy uprooting by way of your front leg. There is a moment where all weight is on the back leg as it springs forward and down to the front foot. The arm actions add even more force.

He makes Xingyi look as beautiful and especially deadly as any of the more widely seen arts! His speed and pwer ar amazing. He's the poster boy for XingYi for the young generation.

he does white crane spreads wings very differently. I would like to see the practical use of that move.

I like this a lot

That was great! 🍻🇫🇮

Dream on.... This guy is awesome.

i think we can learn from all practitioners,whether or not we think they are doing it 'the right way'.

Awesome!

i was going to say something similar. i'm no master but it is quite obvious that he is physically in great shape and the power of his movements are coming form his athleticism not his intention. i don't see any body connection.

Real fast and powerful, but not necessarily as coordinated and refined as far as six harmonies go, and I might be full of shit, but it looks like he might be wasting a little power through excessive movement in some areas. Still though, really powerful and i'm sure he can apply it well to opponents.

Stepping with your toe in a cat stance and then stepping again is called Fahjing? I dont think so.

is this traditional? does it have merit as far as being practical to practice this way?? are their dramatic elements added to the set? not making insults just wondering.

I think he's playing Jackie Chan singing the Wong Fei Hung song in the background of the first form.

I liked his spirit, and his power, but theres something odd in the way he steps. He first tiptoes in then steps....and it seems to get in the way of power generation. Is there a hidden reason you could explain?

So much Chi behind every strike

What a zhenjiao!

Name of song that starts at 2:20 please?

What is the name of the first song with Jacky Chan singing?

i saw this

I'm inspired. . . think I'll get off youtube and go practice Xing Yi

Want-to-learn-so-bad O.O
