Northwest Wushu Showreel (Seattle,WA)

I've been shooting and editing this video a little bit here and there over the last couple of months. This is the martial arts school that I train at. I get many questions about what type of martial arts I do. It's WUSHU. I mainly train in the performance aspect, as a sport. My school does offer sparring and practical fighting classes but I usually just sit and watch other students train. We also do a lot of public demos and performances at events.
If you happen to be in the Seattle Chinatown area, come by and check out the school. I usually train there Saturday afternoons. Here's the address:
605 8th Ave S Seattle WA, 98104

[@XxIDUBZxX]

Azo you honestly inspire me to go live in seattle, its crazy how you can do all of that and have a job your one of a kind AZO, your my hero

[@HarmonyOfElements]

Takes time, practice and dedication. It's not about age, it's about how much time you use on obtaining skill, strength, agility etc. Time is of the essense!

[@marshallw]

Yes. I started when I was 22, been doing it for three years now. It's never to late!

[@justinmartin941]

Awesome! Excellent wushu and great video editing!

[@xWHATdoYOUwantx]

the avatar the last airbender music goes so well with this cause all i see is just firebending and earthbending and everything. AWESOME!

[@SharkExecutor]

THIS is why i love Asia and it's people. Sick moves guys. Congrats to Master Li Tian Yuan !

[@CountD0nkula]

Wow my drive to do this is beyond 100% I seriously would love to train like this. Night and day. And it's not because of all the fancy moves but i would feel like it would be good for the spirit and it would give me a better way to do things in life. This seems like a really good training facility. One day I really hope to be able to train there.

[@yangn1]

WOW, this is so cool.. i didn't think people still learn these things now a days. It's more like Karate here in there most of the time.... I wish there was a wushu school here.

[@TalosAT]

Now I wish I was in better shape... and lived in Seattle. That was really awesome though Azo, you are a huge inspiration to me.

[@YBtrickz]

GAAAH the Avatar music fit this so perfectly. I wish i lived closer to Seattle, wushu is soooo cool!

[@wiimoterevcon]

I just got the biggest smile on my face, everything looked so awesome and the Avatar music just made me love it even more. If only I were in LA :3

[@05you2]

It is amazing how it is so fluid!

[@AZOstuff]

@TuvalAshkenaNinja There are many wushu athletes who can do flashy forms and also fight practically. I personally only do the forms part because I don't like to fight. And yes, we do compete and perform regularly.

[@Kaibo101]

I can't wait to go to your school and try this!

[@danielohmydang]

the ending combined with the avatar song gave me shivers.

[@manuchoib2010]

you are the most cool guy i ever seen before!!! i dont speak english very well but i need to say that youre awesome! from argentina

[@abbrivi8]

that looks an amazing class. i think i might have to locate a wushu class in middlesbough when i move up there next week :D and congrats on geting your own class.

[@Maxie1337]

Damn. This has avatar styled techniques.. I wish you guys had one of these in LA, I would definitely attend.. Love the Avatar BGM btw. :D

[@DanielTheUnamed]

I think my life would be way happier if i could just half of your moves..

[@yehrinlee]

If only this school was located where I live, I would definitely participate.

[@asumen11]

This is simply amazing....

[@tyfong14]

oh my gaahhd. once i am done with highschool i am coming to seattle and training there for at least a year to master all that i've seen him do

[@47drift]

Oh my goodness. I want to attend these classes now.

[@psychoklown66]

Very cool school and offerings.

[@Dantick09]

"weapons and tricks" is best part wish there was one of those in montreal

[@Valosken]

This is the training I've been looking for...if only.

[@leonardoluiss02]

nice firebending and waterbending school you guys got there

[@AZOstuff]

@mikeaol21 We kinda do actually. It's not officially a class but a bunch of us hang out and do parkour after regular training.

[@Slotered]

You guys rock! I wish I could be somewhere near you)

[@Gnampf77]

i think to learn this shouldn`t be for only one culture.it is for the whole mankind so they can witness this great feeling when you master this...and awesomeness is aviable for anyone i think ;)

[@AZOstuff]

@Maxie1337 Look up National Wushu Training Center. It's in La Brea. I used to train there.

[@zennyboi5144]

I didn't know you lived in seattle. How cool I do too :)

[@RSBorisov]

Wooow, looks like an incredible dojo you've set up there. Would be a real honour to come and train with you guys. Could you perhaps move to the UK though? ;P Keep up the great work =)

[@Serock23]

quisiera aprender alguna vez si es que se me diera la oportunidad este hermoso arte marcial :)

[@Chris_W]

@TheTelavivdude right! awsome show :)

[@LakanPepe]

@SplinterInYourEye I started wushu with the body type of congealed tofu. You'll do fine.

[@chinesenood1]

talent at its finest

[@Gustavo0929]

Obviously for "other weapons and tricks" they show AZO. Great video!

[@Tello9000]

Juste magnifique !

[@bizoneee]

Awesomeness level > ∞

[@SPI4eho]

This is just Amazing!

[@Kaibo101]

Man, I really want to join this school. I see this video over and over again. Too bad I am a broke college student.:-(

[@AZOstuff]

@Ralic100 That's an aerial. There are plenty of tutorials here on youtube. Watch at least a few and follow one that works for you.

[@AZOstuff]

@tcsilver I'm not sure. Ask my Sifu. Her account on you tube is 'tianyuanli'.

[@user-ip1tk3nt7x]

终于知道你是哪儿人了！原来是台湾的华人啊！之前一直在优酷看你视频，实在太厉害了！加油喔！

[@snowballandpals]

I know i just watched an advertisement, but that's pretty damn cool.

[@GraveDiggersCorps]

One word.... Awesome.

[@trongucnguyen7321]

Very Good ! I Love Wushu !

[@gupinol8832]

Music from the cartoon "Avatar: the last airbender" !

[@D4rr3l93]

lol loving the avatar last air bender beginning instrumentals :D

[@LegendofJD]

If only I was that flexible haha, good stuff!

[@SoulOne94]

That was EPIC!!

[@mathijssmith]

I would deffinately attend if I lived nearby

[@AZOstuff]

@Saveg36 Yes, of course.

[@Ruceyod]

What movie is this? the scenes are so amazing!

[@CWSSje]

@TheGlock80 The movements in the anime are based off those :D

[@goober153]

@Maxie1337 there are a ton of wushu schools in LA

[@kamonkami]

I'm sad we don't have any training like this in Hungary.

[@gftiger]

I'm sold!

[@llamadogs47]

Sick stuff bro!

[@Vrmillion1]

It makes me wish I lived in Seattle.

[@Polyman92]

This is great!

[@JohnLeBlanc77]

I wish I had schools like this where I live. All of the martial arts schools here are about beating the crap out of each other, nothing about form.

[@EvilFanDead]

you stopped my breath for 2 minutes 49 seconds

[@AZOstuff]

@SplinterInYourEye We do plenty of styles that don't require acrobatics.

[@EstebanTby]

Best of Wushu

[@haishabahsas540]

can i learn to be that flexible if i start at 22? because i would love to practice wushu

[@defragsbin]

Looks like some kickass fun :D

[@xXTouketsuXx]

A-azo... a-as an instructor!? I think its time I tried this...

[@NickMKW]

i really like this video!!

[@idavid24]

hey did the guy at 1:33 go to si ping city academy in china? i think i recognize him.

[@Ralic100]

@azoazotube at 0:49 what is this jump technique called? And are there tips to help me learn it on my own?

[@kjinsta]

Is this the place where it looks like a garage in chinatown? because I walk by it all the time!

[@VskitzophraniaV]

I wish i could train wish you guys :(

[@Maxie1337]

@azoazotube So I went to go check out that WuShu place yesterday on S La Brea, and it turns out they've been closed down for a long time. They should really take that place of Yelp and close down their website.. I was very disappointed.

[@SplinterInYourEye]

I gotta stop by and see this place next time I'm in chinatown. Unfortunately for me, I have the body type of a viking, so acrobatics aren't my strong point.

[@keeconah1]

this is better then the last airbender movie

[@jax12007]

The army is rising.

[@eveeludbrook]

This is awesome! =D

[@DeltaStudios1]

I vote for a rename, School of Azoazo

[@LakanPepe]

I started when I was 30. I was 240 lbs back then.

[@tianyuanli]

Loooooove it :) thanks Aung!!!

[@idavid24]

@idavid24 his name is James i think, right?

[@alexdrake4194]

我愛武術（功夫），但我更喜歡詠春。葉問是最好的！

[@TIMEOUT0011]

at 1:30 there was someone in red who did a move that I am learning at the moment can you please tell me what that move was called its really important thanks

[@bjmac13]

Yay for Avatar: The Last Airbender soundtrack!

[@BlizzGhost]

at the end music from avatar: the last airbender :D

[@xPrinqLe]

love the avatar music

[@higofyp]

Is there a specific body type required to do Wushu? I'm built like a rugby player and everyone I see on the video is lean and athletically built.

[@vm6cl45k6]

I just saw the "Taiwan" word! Hello, everyone! I am from Taiwan! 我剛剛看到了"台灣"兩個字! 大家好!我來自台灣!

[@AZOstuff]

@ramos1321 No not really. But I help out sometimes.

[@seriousamm]

Soundtrack to Avatar.... worked perfectly. you havee given me a new plan for my future and its to go there and train when i can

[@VortexContinuum]

I knew I recognized that music.

[@AZOstuff]

@mikeaol21 Yeah I can show you some basics if you come by.

[@Chris_W]

why does that tune sound familiar??....

[@loudpanzer]

ah those kids are lucky they are getting the training in so young. much harder to do this as an adult :(

[@welcome2thep00pwagon]

avatar music seems so... fitting

[@AZOstuff]

@DJMAN327 Wushu is not my job. It's one of the things I do for fun.

[@TheGogitta]

why can't there be a wushu school in DETROIT?!?!?!
