Good stuff. I especially enjoyed the guy that starts at the 10:40 mark. Very nice fine motor control and through ranges of motion many people never encounter in their every day life. Thanks for putting it up.

[@KingoftheJiangl]

This last form is so similar with taiji I practice and the touching hands at the end that's also so similar to the taiji pushhand routines

[@robertocalvo934]

The guy at the end with the stripes shirt was impressive, powerful form. Big hands, square face, you don't wanna mess with those guys. Watching the form I suddenly got a sense why "Old contradiction man" Wang Xiangzhai had a lot of respect for WhiteCrane styles - Im even beginning to see the influence this appreciation made into Yiquan itself.

[@Veepee92]

The founder of Zonghe apparently trained/learned with WXZ.

[@robertocalvo934]

@@andrewblack7852 I believe the White Crane master( whose name I can't recall right now) was one, the other was LiuHeBaFa founder Wu Wei, the 0,5 was a kinda mountain hermit, "half man, half-animal"( hence the 0,5) who used some idiosyncratic, " natural boxing".

[@CraneHandTigerSpirit]

I love all of of the Crane styles represented at the event and in general, the history and the tradition is amazing but i just can't get away with that Dog Boxing style, its beyond crazy to me.

[@thomasda3482]

i would definitely invite you guys to performs ,the mantis and Okinawa tein the event .if I was those masters haha

[@blockmasterscott]

16:48 I love how well rooted that guy was.

wow the grounding is impressive reminds me like a bamboo trees solid on ground but flexibe above

[@EvgeniiErman]

Great Master! Thank you for your job!!! 🫖☕

[@onedirection3510]

Perhaps Karate Nerd might agree that at about 11:30 it looked like the origins of san shin kata? You’re not selling those black whitecrane t-shirts are you?! Looks very cool.

[@MonkeyStealsPeach]

Yes. It is, if you watch the next episode you will see more clearly. As for tshirts, link is in the pinned comment and video description

[@onedirection3510]

Monkey Steals Peach cool. Are they 100% cotton? Shrinkage? Are they typically true to size or run large or small? What do the characters say on the bottom?

[@MonkeyStealsPeach]

They are cotton. I believe they are pre-shrunk, they are sold through printful, so you can double check there. The characters are just what the English says, so depends on which tshirt you get

[@Phil-0-Suffer]

Do you have footage of full Incense shop boxing forms?

Im putting on Patreon later this month

Please make a video of Master Chen Wenjin. Master of feeding crane .

[@MonkeyStealsPeach]

Traveling around China to make these videos costs a huge amount of planning, time and money. If you have ideas about future videos, perhaps you could consider supporting the running of this channel by supporting on Patreon.

Sir, the link to your book list doesn't work.

Sensacional 🐲

[@Gieszkanne]

Interesting that these two masters at the end are from the same branch but are very differnt in application, like they were from differnt styles.

[@jadenng7569]

Are you sure that was a Sleeping Crane form in the beginning? The characters read 纵鹤拳, which is the name of the Shaking/Dancing Crane style, not 宿鹤拳 for Sleeping Crane. The form also looked more like a Shaking Crane form.

[@MonkeyStealsPeach]

Yes you are right. That was confusion on my part. At the time of editing I mistakenly thought 纵鹤拳 and 宿鹤拳 were the same thing. I'm going to be compiling all the interviews from that series into a documentary, probably to be released next year... so I will clear up that mistake for that

[@jadenng7569]

@@MonkeyStealsPeach No worries. The video was especially informative, by the way.

Thanks for video , will you make a video about Bagua quan applications ? And i heard about exotic fish style or fish boxing yuequan, maybe you know something about this style?

[@michaelborror4399]

Nice, one of the things with fighting I've been noticing with some fighters in the ring getting in great shape before a fight, and some martial arts building great conditioning over a long period of time, and pacing yourself... or make me wonder about wearing a helmet before going face to face with some of these taller stronger people that do striking styles... lol...? or getting in closer, with some soft and sticky hands and using leverage or catching techniques sometimes... good posture could be especially important in the dojo?, like with high impact or helmets or weapons,? although the more naturally occurring slight chin tilt downward to protect the nose and chin could be remedied in habit easier I'd think???, if you'd wanna explain the difference of why alot of boxers might want to tilt their chin down a little more often than you might in karate...??? Or occasionally, going over shield with one hand behind the head...????

[@JimmyPong]

I"m not sure, but the "sleeping crane" style might have been a mistraslation? "縱" should mean "leaping/shaking/trembling" instead? source: zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%B8%B1%E9%B6%B4%E6%8B%B3 Anyway, love your videos and passion for the martial arts! Thank you!

[@MonkeyStealsPeach]

It was something that confused me, as some called it 縱鹤, some called it 宿鹤

[@JimmyPong]

@@MonkeyStealsPeach Hmmm, it seems that they are two separate branches: zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%99%BD%E9%B6%B4%E6%8B%B3#%E4%B8%BB%E8%A6%81%E6%B4%BE%E5%88%A5 But anyway, they are all crane and it's wonderful the masters are still preserving the art.

[@kheirsalammartialarts8542]

@@JimmyPong hello, I think sleeping crane is same as shaking crane just different names for example I heard that feeding crane is also called hunting crane

Hi Will, these latest videos are great. Good to see collaboration like this and exploring the roots of other arts. How are the situations where you live in China re: Covid19 virus? Do you still train as normal?
