I started studying Shaolin Kung Fu in 1969. Changed my life immensely. I. 67 soon to be 68. Not as flexible and limber as I used to be. New knee and arthritis in in left hip. But I still train. I train Shotokan Katas using more fluid Kung Fu move. Combining the two has really kept me in great fighting shape. Even at 69.

[@cosmicorder808]

Most people couldn't imagine the training they go through. It's a life changing commitment. Shaolin appears martial but it is also spiritual. You are training yourself to recognize the body, it's movement, and the energy that flows through it. The energy is very subtle, and hard to recognize for the thick headed. It requires constant training to become aware of the mechanics happening within. Then with full awareness, once trained, your moves are automatic, no thought, free flowing like energy. You will also notice that time is relaxed, and you have more mental space.

[@ViewingMyMind]

then you do it sounds amazing u go there and live there lmfao

[@jeanpierrepolnareff9919]

i agree with the spirtuality and hardwork but the engergy thing... Dude every single fighter knows the first week that the energy for your strikes comes from the ground , flowing to the end of the striking limb. Thats all.

The Kun Fu taught in this video is articulate and well performed. The core stances teach you a foundation for the rest of the movements in the art form. If you noticed when he was performing the kicks he was switching between stances to enable him to build strength in the movement. If you do not practice the stances you will have no fluidity to your movements.

[@heylinedgear3510]

That horse stance man... I'm practicing to be able to hold it for long amounts of time.

[@jamescobrien]

Lance Prep Try the wudang style horse stance because it's harder and very natural. You see, when you ride an actual horse, your feet are only about shoulder width apart. You must maintain good posture while doing this, so only go as low as you can with your back still verticle. Hold it at whatever height as long as you can once a day. Within six months your thighs should be parallel with the ground. the longer you hold it, the higher you will be able to jump. There feet in this video are extremely wide and no one rides a horse like that.

[@DrRobynKelley313]

In karate, the horse stance is the first one taught. It is brutal in karate. You need to start by doing stretches first. When doing the positions just hold for brief time at first a couple tumes a day, then steadily increase the time holding the positions. It gets easier once you get your muscles in shape.

[@yusufsumtallee7374]

@@DrRobynKelley313 Are karate and kung fu same?

[@DrRobynKelley313]

@@yusufsumtallee7374 no, Karate and Kung Fu are vastly different. Karate is brutal, whereas Kung Fu is soft but firm. It's like the difference between hitting someone with a stick vs blasting someone with a water hose. Just as effective, but entirely different. Plus, Karate is hard on the body, but Kung Fu uses natural body movements, which makes it easier on the body.
