You're very welcome!

Yes, I will. Thanks

Wonderful!

Welcome!

I hear you. While Facebook's real name policy can be a boon in terms of ID-ing people, it can also be a bane in the sense that Facebook is a huge privacy nightmare, while discord would allow a certain degree of per-server isolation of activity. Facebook would follow whatever you do, wherever you go, no matter how often people adjust their privacy settings. If people using fake names on Discord poses a problem in terms of hate speech / harassment / spam, we could impose moderation standards / language filters etc. Also, this community group announced today is intended to be open for everyone. Whenever DAOI memberships are enabled, there will most likely be an additional members-only group. Still TBD though. And thanks once again for your comment on the student correction section :)

Yes, I am very happy to know that my videos can provide some useful information to you and others. Yes, we will work hard to make DAOI a nice place for all of us.

Thanks!

Good to know.

Thanks

Hello, thank you for sharing your experience with us.

Hello, this is a very good question. i should answer it in the next Q&A.

Hello, I will let my student answer your question. Thanks.

Hi, the discord link is present in the video descriptions of recent videos under the *Connect with DAOI* section

@@HaiYangChannel Many thanks.

@@lsm5 Thank you very much.

I think I should answer this question in the next Q&A. Thank you.

Yes, it will be part of it. what I said was the major part are Daoism ,then , Confucianism, and other systems (such as Buddhism) as well.

Thank you for your comment.

:)

Thanks,

I am not sure what do you mean Ti Fang? Thanks,

@@HaiYangChannel Ti Fang ==> Lift & Release; or Sever Root & Launch; I don't know the Chinese spelling, and I've only heard the term from Taiji practioners.

Hello, I manage the daoi website, are you trying to fill out the contact form on the DAOI website? I'm asking because we don't have the feature in place to officially "join" DAOI yet. Or did you mean the DAOI discord server by any chance? Btw, sometimes youtube may censor comments for whatever reason, so if you find you're unable to respond here, please send an email to info@daoi.org and I can take a look there.

If you meant the contact form, I just made a small change to the site. Please try again, it should work now. Sorry about the issue.

@@lsm5 Thanks for the prompt response. I will try again.

Hello, thank you for your comment. Yes, i will answer it in the next Q&A.

I thank you for sharing your corrections with us!!!!!!!! You are doing great and I admire your willingnes to show up on the chanel and let us watch your practise and corrections. Thats a great help für learing for me. And without your correction of this special Fa Li excercise, so many hidden important details would not have been pointed out. Thomas

@@yinyangtom happy to hear :) . And I really appreciate your contributions toward this channel too Mr. Hudecsek!

@@lsm5 I just wanted to write somthing in the contact form of the DAOI page but it doesn´t work. Shall I post it here?

@@yinyangtom what issue are you facing? I can look into it and fix that. Either way, it's your call. If you don't mind posting it publicly, feel free to write here.

@@lsm5 Dear Team, I am looking forward to the exciting new possibilities this new Platform will open for us. Thank you all for the work you put into it. I have one Idea for the DAOI Page. Wouldn´t it be wonderful to have an index of all Toppics with links to all the youtube Videos of Master Hai Yang. But that is propably to much work for anyone to do. Have a great time, stay healthy Thomas it wrote "the message could not be submitted"

Thank you, I will think about it. Take care. Have a nice day. Enjoy your training,.

If I may make a counter point. Why should he do sanda, mma or boxing ? Why would he enter into a ring with one hand tied behind his back? Do the rules of sanda, mma or boxing allow for an expression of xingyi, bagua or taiji? No. They don’t. I understand the point you are making as it gets made all the time on the internet, but frankly, I’m getting a little tired of it. If you were to suggest that he step onto a platform with a boxer or something and they could both fight with their own skills, that is one thing, but that is not what combat sports is. They are sports, with rules. TCMA we’re not developed as sport. Again, I understand this position you are taking, but sanda, mma and boxing are not a “real fight”. Also, I think you may be misunderstanding what fali is. Fali is not combat. Fali is (as the lecture says) an expression of force release. Is it used in combat? Of course. But so is chi-na, grappling, etc… fali itself, is not combat. So when you say “show it”… we’ll, frankly he did show it. There was a demonstration. I think you mean “use it”, which is quite different. This is just my opinion, but all this talk of combat sports “killing TCMA” is really quite silly that seems devalue much of the cultural, health and even martial aspects of Chinese martial arts because they don’t fit with well within a competitive arena that was not designed for them. If you want to see Chinese martial arts go up against other disciples I suggest you google “the dog brothers” to see fights that are outside of the combat sports arena and allow for a more sanshou (free fighting) environment. @Hai Yang, I would interested in hearing you address this topic (TCMA vs combat sports) in an upcoming Q&A since it so often talked about in the MA community. Thank you.

@@joezane I've seen the dog brothers, they are very average at best. MMA has very few restraining rules, can't kick a down opponent to the head, can't eye gouge or fish hook or bite. You simply will not be able to fight unless you go hard, against a resisting opponent and the only way to PRACTICE those sorts of skills is combat sports. Now, often Special Forces types will discuss this and they often claim they DO use unarmed combat skills in actual live wartime scenarios on their missions on occasion. You might want to check out what, say Jocko Willink (SEAL) and Pat McCormick (Delta Force) have to say about this subject. Again, if you don't go live against a resisting non cooperative opponent you can not learn to fight, case closed.

@@rodgerbane3825 I’m not sure what you mean when you say that the dog brothers are average at best? It is a range of fighters of different skills and disciplines. Some are average, some less, some more. It is about the competition and the rules. The only rules they have have are you must wear very basic head gear, non restrictive gloves and don’t kill anyone. MMA certainly has restrictive rules, maybe not to someone doing BJJ or Muay Thai, but to other arts, it doesn’t work. In taijiquan, for example, we have many Zhang fa (hand methods) that you simply couldn’t do wearing protective gear in MMA. I am not saying that you shouldn’t practice against a revisiting opponent. Of course you should. Again, I draw on my chosen art… in taiji we have many ways working on practice with a resisting opponent tuishou (pushing hands), dashou (hitting hands), Sanshou (free fighting). Often for beginners these are set patterns of play, but for more advanced players this is done free resistance. My contention is the idea that Combat sports is somehow “real fighting”. It is not. That idea is silly. A taiji fighter not doing well in MMA no more “kills TMA” than if a boxer failed in a tuishou competition. They are different things. Again, I am not saying that martial arts shouldn’t be pressure tested against a resisting opponent. Yes it should. I hope that is clear. I am saying that combat sports is not real fighting, it lends itself to certain disciplines and disadvantages others. That is my opinion. I hear and respect yours, I simply disagree. Also, again, I would be interested in Hai Yang addressing this topic, since it is his channel and he is the one that you asking to “prove himself”.

@@HaiYangChannel I can see that my attempt to tag you in the conversation didn’t work, so I’m replying directly. Would be able to address this idea in the conversation below? Traditional Chinese martial arts and combat sports, perhaps I a q&a, thank you.
