Is this a new bounty paper towel promotion?

I think he was influenced by Sun Lu Tang. He used to punch and kick a cloth or something and eventually he would make a hole in it. He was a great internal arts master.

这么练肯定也能出功夫，就是看着别扭，劈拳，没有一个落如钩杆的下劈的感觉，感觉是直接推的。

Nice performance. Looks like Hebei Xingyiquan to me. Since we know that Dai Family Xinyi was modified into Xingyiquan by Li Luoneng in the mid 19th Century, I presume Wudang is not claiming to be the originator of this style. Nothing wrong with that. And Ji A Ke was said to have spent time at Qianzhai Temple in Henan while developing Xinyi Liuhequan, so the parent art had Taoist gongfu influences anyway. Thanks for sharing.

The lineage this master belongs to (Xuan wu pai) was interrupted and resurrected after the cultural revolution. There are a lot more modern movements within Xuan Wu Pai and Sanfeng Pai. If you want to see traditional wudang kungfu which incorporates the 3 main internal styles into its own you should look into Chun Yang Pai, Song Xi Pai and Wudang Long Men Pai.

[@briankaplan6248]

YoungDaoist27 Thanks for the info. Sounds like Wudang went through much the same upheaval and reinvention as Shaolin. I've seen this master's performance of tai chi chuan, and it looks like a blend of Chen and Yang style (even including "Buddha's Warrior Attendant Pounds the mortar", which seemed strange for a Taoist pai), which makes sense with the info you've provided. I've seen some of the Songxi Pai, and it's interesting. Kind of reminds me of Xinyi liuhequan

[@YoungDaoist27]

Sorry, I meant to reply to this earlier on but it left my mind. Song xi pai is a good style for showing traditional Wu dang martial arts, particularly because he was a direct disciple of Zhang San Feng, who is considered by many to be the "Inventor" of Tai-Chi. Song xi pai has its own Tai Chi, there are videos floating around youtube if your interested. He was also knowledgeable of other popular martial art styles at the time and incorporated all of it into his lineage. There is more info on the web about Song xi pai, there were enough people in it that it never faced being lost. When we look at Daoist martial arts we often see Daoist philosophy and ideas incorporated into the physical movements themselves. What is Tai-Chi more then just the physical expression of Taiji (Grand ultimate achieved by yin and yang working in harmony). Like Taiji, your body must work in harmony through combining yin and yang into one motion. So its not hard to imagine that Tai-chi came from earlier daoist yoga practices and eventually worked its way into the martial arts with Zhang San feng and Chen. The reason I bring all this up is because when people look at most modern schools in Wudang (San feng and Xuan wu) and they offer classes in Ba Gua and Xing Yi. People who see Dong hai chuan and Yue fei as the inventors of these styles call Wu dang pai frauds because of this. However arts like this were already being practiced in Wu dang, they just called the styles something different and borrowed from the eight trigrams, five elements and taiji respectively. If you have any questions or concerns about what I said, Ill be happy to hear them.

+Brian Kaplan Zhang San-Feng came from Shaolin before he went to Wudang, so it would make sense why they practice Xingyi at Wudang, hense the "Buddha's Warrior Attendant Pounds the mortar." Before the cultural revolution decimated the martial world, Wudang was a place for all spiritual people in China to retreat. Wudang Shan was not a small place, so people of many different backgrounds could come together and learn. Wudang was a melting pot of Chinese culture and martial arts from all of China's five corners. After centuries and centuries of martial cultivation it was apparent that true strength was in developing one's inner energies and conquering one's inner demons. Unlike many laymen daoist's, Zhang San-feng stressed the importance of sexual discipline and renunciation, like Shaolin. San-feng wanted his disciples to practice his form, until they could no longer remember how to practice his form. In a sense, he wanted his disciples to cultivate there own style and thus cultivate themselves. There is no such thing as an original style. Taiji, Bagua, Xingyi is a human attempt to express the phenomenon called the universe. Modern Taoist call this the Tao.

All of the internal aspects of internal martial arts came from taoist knowledge.

The terms is translated into "chopping first" by someone. It's not accurate but to that effect to large extent. Where can you see "chopping" in his move?
