Join The Tao Way Tribe!
/ @thetaoway
In this video, I am going to detail how you can gain lower body mobility with a kung Fu stance known as the 仆步 (Pubu) in Chinese and The Drop Stance in English. This is a great position to learn that will open up doors. If you have any questions or comments please feel free to leave them down below.

The "Kung Fu" cat is the best and cuttest

[@FihasiaTshirtStore]

More Kung Fu stances please🙏

[@mao8861]

Nice place. Windows and sunlight looks amazing. I also liked two angle camera view.

[@TheTaoWay]

Thanks, Mao. It is a nice place to practice but I always prefer the outdoors :)

[@JP-np6xi]

Awesome video Tone! Max is amazing! Miss you both ❤

[@TheTaoWay]

We miss you too!

[@paraworth]

Thanks for great explanation

[@dominicmoreno4662]

I really needed this

[@csabaimate]

1:46 you are literally made saint by a fan

[@andrewwang1650]

thank you

[@matthewe2903]

Yeah definitely wanna see more kungfu stuff ! In all honesty do you think that you'll ever be able to have a Pubu like Max? It's pretty impressive but I'd guess that it also has something to do with her anatomy or maybe the fact that she started earlier with squatting than you?

[@TheTaoWay]

I don't know if my pubu can be as good as Max's but that won't deter me from working to improve it!

[@saberserpent1134]

I use this stance in our double sabers form, and it is BRUTAL. Pistol squats are definitely helping. Would love to see more videos on the more unique/challenging stances. Subbed!

[@TheTaoWay]

Very nice! Thanks for your support :)

[@finnsoeben694]

Just joined the membership 😎 Love the Kung Fu content would love to see more & happy to support you!

[@TheTaoWay]

Thanks for the support! More member only videos and opportunties are coming.

[@melchoraslez1689]

I remember the Pubu from your Lower Body Session 1 or maybe 2 years ago :) You did it for warm ups if I remember correctly? I hope you make more kung fu related stuff! Would love to see some fundamental Kicks :) If I become a channel member will I have the same access to private content as a Pateron supporter?

[@TheTaoWay]

You are exactly right! A great warm up tool for practices involving the lower body. Kicks would be a great topic, i'll put it on the list for sure and see if I can come up with something. Right now, there are some differences between Patreon and the channel memberships in terms of the videos/blog posts/other content available but my plan is to bring the KZbin memberships slowly up to speed with the Patreon. Eventually, the Patreon membership and the channel membership will be one in the same. Some people do not want to go off platform and some people prefer using Patreon.

My buddy, Pete the dog, was barking at your cat!

[@TheTaoWay]

I am sure they were friendly barks ;)

[@user-ph8bg8if1t]

Is it possible that to certain degree the range of movement of the pubu stand depends on the ankles flexibility? I have certain biomechanical limit on my ankles due to my foots high instep/ defeated metatarso / ballerina foot, and I feel it allows ankle flexibility to certain limit, wich comes from the bones and not from muscles and such

[@jeremiahshine]

We called it "The Chadwick Splits" in high school soccer.

[@TheTaoWay]

Interesting. Do you happen to know why they were called this? Were they performed with the same details as shown in this video?

[@jeremiahshine]

@@TheTaoWay I jumped the gun. The Chadwick was toe up. It was named after a legendary player from a graduating class somewhere in the early eighties. 😂

[@StarDreamMemories]

Nice!😁

[@christophhermann86]

Great video! fyi youtube membership seems not available for me

[@TheTaoWay]

Thanks! Yeah, unfortunately the channel memberships are not available in every country
