I love this so much. Their movements are so beautiful. The production value is beautiful. This is just really great. Can't wait for more!

[@magicleo]

Very educational ! Thank you for your hard work! Can't wait to see part 2

[@DarthJF]

This was by far the best thing you've had on this channel, not taking anything away from all the other great stuff you've had. And I think I've basically seen all your stuff until this point, so I know what I'm talking about. ;)

[@Wwdancwe690]

This was great. I am super excited,I can't wait for part 2! Keep these coming when you can, I love documentaries.

[@salsa1118]

[@sandikoo744]

i love this! can't wait for the second part!

[@A1D4A1M53]

This why I love the Asian culture because they have really cool & awesome stuff. Martial Arts is a style of respect honor and valor. It motivates you not only psychology & physically but also spiritually as well. Tai Chi is the yoga version of Gung Fu, etc. there are some people that misuse it and for the wrong reasons and some people use it for the right reasons. But its still great for the MIND, BODY, and SPIRIT, etc.

[@juffurey]

A.C. Feige i really think that ties into why many east asians also love baseball, it has many of the same qualities.

[@A1D4A1M53]

I believe so.

[@Lizhi荔枝]

I do Taiji, and let me tell you, it is one of the best choices I've made in life to take Taiji class! It's really stress relieving from a tiring weekend. When I first started, my legs were shaking after all the meditation and I could hardly do warm-ups. But now, I feel better than before. It also boosted my confidence. I do recommend trying it out if you guys haven't tried it yet. And I'm sorry that this is really off topic. 😅

[@TheDanmit]

This is exactly why i love chinese martial arts and why i am doing tai chi chuan for 5 years and hopefully will play tai chi forever . Thank you guys really good video

[@glennredavid5741]

[@mariakost13]

I really enjoyed the video, good job guys! And thank you for sharing it with us!

[@UNRSD]

You can really tell a lot of time and effort went into this video. I think having someone like LongFei who understands both Eastern and Western culture was a really great and well thought out idea. Awesome job guys!

[@Niko-uz2fz]

I'm only about 2 seconds into the documentary, and WOW this really is absolutely beautifully produced! Great work guys c:

[@ronb.8920]

Great vid! Looking forward to more.

[@feralvein]

Guys, this production is awesome. Happy to see this level of quality on your show. As a long time martial arts enthusiast I can affirm this information is on point!

[@PinkLlamaGrl]

I don't care much for martial arts films but I really enjoyed this first installment. It's such an amazing sport. Looking forward to the rest

[@joycegraves2559]

Okay, I'm hook. I have taken taekowdo and TaiChi in the past because I like that it doesn't just focus on the physical. It is interesting to learn more about the mental aspects of martial arts. Can't wait for part 2.

[@fpandoy]

So interesting. The production of the documentary is amazing as well. Thanks for creating this. I can't wait to see the other ones.

[@Rockwell185]

[@mrlol237]

Great Film! Learned a lot, was very interesting! Looking forward in seeing the following episodes!

[@bettyknight4079]

Really interesting and the production values are great. I'm looking forward to the rest of the series :)

[@Anaerodian]

Your Channel is amazing

[@TheKaze1991]

students who study Martial Arts need so much discipline and patience. i respect people like that. and i guess, if you study Chinese you definately need it too :) thank you guys for the video! already clicking a link to part 2!

[@TheAngelofThrash]

Absolutely brilliant series, I hope you keep this up. Very educational.

[@gogumadalpaengi]

I've always thought that it's incredibly impressive and beautiful how mental and spiritual Kung Fu is. How it focuses on becoming one with yourself, which seems natural but is actually quite a long and difficult road to walk. Keep up the great work!

[@ariararia]

Chinese kung fu is literally my fav thing ever so I am so happy to learn more about it. I might do a speech on it for class

[@hakayenne]

You guys did an amazing job, your video is so inspiring and motivating. Master Long Fei's words are well picked and cause emotions, let's oneself reflect on our way of living, how we face our problems and how we accept our inner self. Thank you so much for making this journey to the east, I'm glad to have watched your video by chance. 繼續努力，你們做的非常好！謝謝

[@cowboywithnonose]

I really liked the documentary! It's actually inspired me to have a go at martial arts sometime... Look forward to your next one! :)

[@Pluffzee]

I'm so glad that I accidentally stumbled across this channel a couple of months ago. This was really cool!

[@jeremyspringer7913]

So cool, I'm so glad I found you guys on KZbin. Credit goes to Mike since I subscribed to his BeyondScience first. I love how you help us understand the characters too, how "Wu" has stop contained within it. Teach us more good stuff, I appreciate your videos very much. Please don't make us wait too long for the next episode!

[@ping0]

weird I was watching this a few days prior from you guys showcasing . Good stuff!

[@roket9424]

Beautiful video I just want to thank you guys because I study chinese at school and you help me to understand the culture of this amazing country . Love you Off the great wall

[@here5574]

This was great, interesting and easy to understand! love learning new things about asian cultures and so forth:D! xx

[@lovemusic1842]

So interesting!! Thank you for making these videos!

[@jameshinh4077]

For the simple explanation is external martial arts is braking the shield and grabbing a 50 cal turret and go crazy but internal martial art is grabbing a sniper and finding holes in the shield and knowing when to shoot at the right moment and when I mean by shield is when the person is blocking or attacking.

[@iamyourfather3069]

Loved it!

[@draankpaank]

This is so beautiful, thank you for sharing with us

[@NanaMamaS]

I love this.

[@lilyjohnson6270]

WOW that was INCREDIBLE!!! I can't wait to see Part 2!! That was so intriguing and interesting I can't get over it!! I want to be a student of LongFei!

[@SyedKashani]

Really great video guys. Thank u so mch

[@ShutterBeatReaderKirstie]

This video was too short. I was totally into it. I love everything that has to do with martial arts. Especially the history and ideology behind each fighting style. It's a very interesting topic and I would love to learn more about it. :)

[@Emtar23]

this looks awesome i wish all of it was here because now i want to watch the rest of it

[@urpoche]

I saw those on China Uncensored, I didn't know you guys were the ones who made it. Great job !

[@TheCzechfootballer]

Wow. . . . Guys that was a fantastic documentary! The quality was absolutely amazing, I think Wú Chéng'ēn would be very proud! :) As someone who has been practicing (and teaching) nèi jiā (xíng yì quán) for over ten years, I was very interested to see how a typically external form qī xīng tángláng quán could be modified to take certain things from the three main internal styles. Really enjoyed watching this! Thanks very much.

[@cenkdogan429]

cool i love to learn more about chinese culture

[@infoworld7706]

the production value is even better than some pros do.

[@SupperFabulousJ]

Off the Great Wall So glad you guys made this video! In Western culture, when Chinese Martial Arts is mentioned, everyone immediately thinks "oh yeah, I know, Kung Fu, Jackie Chan and stuff!" and then off they go making some utterly ridiculous sound they associate with Kung Fu (you know what I'm talking about). But little do they know about the seemingly "softer" forms of Chinese Martial Arts. As someone who grew up watching her father practise Tai Chi and Qigong, I really feel strongly about the need to introduce the foundations of Chinese Martial Arts to people in the West. It's not about throwing punches and flying kicks or whatever, it's about knowing yourself, your body, your mind, and utilizing the energy from within to keep the body strong and from which the "harder" forms can be built upon. Anyways... looking forward to the rest of the videos! :)

[@thcarey]

I can't wait until the next episode. This was very educational. Thank you.

[@bernadetterocha8608]

This was great, thanks for sharing! First documentary that I've seen that was actually interesting. I actually had to stop doing my business math homework to watch this so that I didn't miss anything. Please show more soon!

[@arkuenjavier7521]

You guys are great!

[@bellataladion1244]

I love this video.This was very educational. :)

[@YassinBentchich]

The documentary is well shot, and the narration is awesome.

[@remigiuszbloch]

OK, most important question: When you train for 5-6 hours daily, how can you afford living? What kind of job they work to pay bills???

[@darkestdragon]

Oh dam.. Ive already seen this before! good to hear you guys made it!

[@anamartinov8908]

This is amazing ,and awesome and so beautiful.

[@superman15946]

this is an amazing video thank you for sharing it

[@rocketjuice]

Thanks for sharing this! I especially enjoyed seeing the internal movements of the Seven Star Mantis. Nicely done.

[@miiwubful]

this was awesome

[@ae-ribae6426]

Beautifully made documentary guys. Kudos. It was informative and quite enchanting. You know when you have done a good job, if it leaves the audience wanting to know more and and looking forward to the next installment :D

[@pinkwinterprincessEri]

you guys are awesome;, i truly love Kung fu

[@TheTillinger123]

great documentary, the tranlation is done well unlike most documentaries

[@WaySerious]

Great video!

[@rowie92]

Loved it! A very nice concept for videos and it's really well made. Also an interesting topic since everybody knows kung fu but most people don't know it to this extent. I certainly learned some new things! ^^

[@Demandd]

I was expecting something like Journey to the West.

[@chauphan4997]

钟家伟 OMG SAMEEEE

[@amberlii]

YAAAASSSS SAMEEEEE I THOUGHT IT WAS A PARODY OR SOMETHING

[@586bomin]

That's was great!!!!

[@amy-avnas]

I really am enjoying this! Can't wait for more. I'd love to learn martial arts soon, for protect of self and others :) I dislike violence so it's defiantly be a last stance kind of thing.

[@StimParavane]

Great video. The historical footage of the Master was compelling. His movements were infused with Qi and internal force and this came through too in the quality of his student's forms and attitudes.

[@HatsuNeMiku2006NyanFamily]

I really love it so much. It reminds me of my senpi at NJ, fun but strick in a good way. He came Koria and he understand the pressure of not be able to relax and everything. But he studied Takowndo so its not Kung Fu but he teach me to understand life and respect one another. But also to use our knowledge for defence, not to use for harm at all. I'm going to come to NJ/NYC once again towards the end of this month or benginning of June. It will be wonderful to see my senpi again 😁

[@yiw3448]

Amazing

[@wolfninja4595]

cool video i love learning new things :)

[@yvettegarza3196]

Well done!! I am currently starting to learn Tai Chi to relax and center myself. Hoping it will help me to cope with stress. The martial art shown here and and Tai Chi are very beautiful in their movements. They both resemble dance to me which is something that appeals to me as well as their benefits to whole body health. I look forward to seeing the other videos. Thank you. ☺️

[@meiasanon4766]

That was awesome! And now if I ever need a body guard for any reason I know just who to call!

[@nerdvern3823]

Amazing! I was mystified by his fluid movements. Just watching this made me feel calm, maybe I need to find my way up to ny sooner!

[@drallagon]

awesome!

[@codywilliams3694]

we watched one of your cideos at school and i screamed DAN and MIKE

[@oscareduardo9374]

buah!! this is awesome!! :D

[@n.akarem9000]

I lost the sense of time XD This is really wonderful and deep !

[@A9N9I9T9A9]

Great video:)

[@Niko-uz2fz]

When are you releasing the second part? The anticipation is killing me c:

[@FrisoTalks]

哇！东游记真好啦！你们都厉害呀！ I did enjoy it very much! :D When is the next episode? ;) By the way, I'm going to Beijing to study more Chinese in September. Do you know of any teachers for 八極拳 and 劈掛拳 there?

[@ariararia]

[@P3696]

[@SunnySunflowers510]
