@JorgeEFM Actually its because Self Defense is not about damaging your opponent. Its about warding damage from yourself and whoever you want to protect
Of course there are alot of douch bags in MMA. They may be strong and juiced up but look what comes with it. They never have the mental discipline to keep their ego in check. Power corrupts if you let it.
BEST ANSWER on this subject: I do not like to get in the habit of saying one style is better than others. In regards to karate as a sport-I believe tournament compeition, that while it has some benefits, it does create a mindset and habits that will not work for actual combat. I also agree that when you can not attck the joints, eyes, throat, fingers, groin, etc that a true martial artist would not be able to effectively use their style.
That guy really knows what he’s doing! I love watching martial arts and can’t get enough of the great action movies that are coming out these days. I especially enjoy the Kung Fu movies of Jackie Chan and Jet Li and that’s why I was so excited when “Films of Fury” finally came out on demand with some great scenes from some of the best action movies around. It has some great martial arts sequences and movie clips! bitly .com/uBGPir
Im sure he is strong and fast. But how much fighting experience does he have. Static drills and just drills does not make you a better a fighter. Having a student attack you in a set drill and just turn into a crash test dummy can make anyone look good. Do you do any form of sparring? Real fight training needs movement, energy and timing. You cannot drill these aspects.
Quiz: I always would like to know this answer: In a real fight to defending his life, who has the winner's advantage? A master of karate with full knowledge of kata's bunkai and makiwara experienced or a Wing Chun master trained in wooden dummy (mudjong).
As you get older, and more practiced, the student will understand the internal power much more. It takes time to develop. Younger people grasp the external components easier than the internal. The style I practice (Pak Hok Pai) starts external and, with skill, moves internal then, after a while, you realize they are not disconnected. Good to see Tai Chi focused to combat.
I just has my 4th lesson in Tai Chi and my my 70 year old teach was showing me a simple pushing move and I could really feel the force in it. No,Tai chi is not just for old people, but it is about balance and control of your body.
I have a few doubts in this as a combat martial art, but as I'm sure it has a credibility of its own, can someone tell me what the principles are behind combat tai chi? I'm just curious, and I feel like I'm missing something.
I practice tai chi, and i´m a little bit familiarized with tai chi chuan tecniques, i learned this for my art making purposes so I almost never use it for personal defense but trust me... it works. Saludos desde Colombia ^^
Oh God.... these MMA goons here in this forum. You don't even know what you're looking at. Keep rolling around on the floor with sweaty guys in shorts... that's what you guys seem to like best.
@chisaoboy Have some respect, yeah there are a lot of douchbags in mma probably the majority ....but the mma art itself brings something that is close to the martial arts with one exception ---reallity and belive me real is one thing and looking cool is the other , a real fight is something completly different again...And yes a lot of martial arts are fake thats te hard truth , it may work wiith someone that is in no shape and super slow....but go against a simple boxer and the fun will end...
Is he using fa jing? I have a hard time telling, but it seems like his movements are a little too rigid for that. But I'm still new to taiji, so I could be wrong. Also, qi is more than how the ancient chinese explained physics. If anything, it's closer to bioelectromagnetic energy. Yang Jwing-Ming explains the concept very clearly, so see if you can find an explanation by him. Also, if qi was just physics principles, then it would never have become the basis for Chinese medicine.
Truth is if your a high level martial artist, most people won't want to fight with you and if they do, one can ward it off with a glance, a change in body position, a step or simply with their good energy exuding such compassionate energy that even someone who wants to fight will be transformed. Now that's art. :0) lol
obviously you are trolling... but to try to tackle your question Chi is ever present and an strong internal force. One would need to train for many years to gain such control. Good luck!
@KenDragoon25 Chi is how they explained f=ma in ancient china, Tai chi is nearly 2000 years old, so people have had a long time to think about structure. The movement or the action via the hand is an extension of your structure when fighting, the body is a whole unit when fighting. F=ma from the ground from you towards the centre of gravity of the opponent. If F=ma is > greater than F=ma of your opponent then your opponent will go flying from one end of the room to the next. force=massxacceler.
@arthurnigga Not true. Compared to other 'deadly' arts out there at least. Most places that teach Tai Chi these days don't even teach the martial applications sadly. If you're lucky enough to find a master that does teach its applications, it will still take quite a while to develop such skills to be useful in actual combat. Although fortunately, I have a master in my area that teaches Chen style Tai Chi and I will admit it is a very brutal art if used correctly and practically.
i got cut by a hooker, i'v been in crazy street fights, 3 on one, i had my dog repelent and retractable baton, which doesn't do shit, better off using ur fists. i'v stabbed a guy to, i'm currently being charged with aggrevated assault. i'v seen alot of fake demonstrations, i'v seen these armchair warriors that teach at the mall dojo make some stupid demonstration. they would be helpless around my part of town. helpless. this though. i think this guy has some dicipline. i wouldn't fuckrnd.
What he's doing is harnessing and projecting energy and power you can see this quite well . tai Chi is called an internal art for several reasons, but mainly because all of the dynamic is taking place in the body and isn't seen (or revealed). The Tai Chi form has come from martial practice. Most of the movements in it have martial use. IMHO I think that martial use helps the form and vice versa, ChengMan Ching said that he could defend himself while meditating(allegedly)
1) I used the word (allegedly def. purportedly, reportedly, stated not proved)
2) In his book "There are No Secrets: Professor Cheng Man-ching and his tai chi chaun" Wolfe Lowenthal
quotes CMC (I paraphrase) " The difference between yoga and Tcc is that in yoga if someone tries to knock you off your cushion there is nothing you can do about it"
You will have to look up the word 'paraphrase' yourself.
I am suspicious of any one who presents this sort of thing to the public in order to pay the rent. Do they take responsibility for the danger that poses to my friends in law enforcement? Guys in prison have nothing better to do than practice how to take down a cop with a blitz attack. Not his problem, right? He kept his lights on. Look at this dude's face. Does he look like a nice man? I have seen better practioners too.
@BadHalfPenney why? people have to make a living and this is his way, teaching martial arts for self defence, whats wrong with that? wtf does a persons looks have to do with anything u tool.
@tuplag "why? people have to make a living and this is his way, teaching martial arts for self defence, whats wrong with that?" Let's forget that last sentence. Martial artists who train people for a living (irresponsibly) are bad teachers. Sometimes, they train guys who go to prison where they have nothing better to do than lift weights and practice killing cops. The UFC guys are the worst. They aren't ultimate because both guys walk away. Seals, Force Recon Marines, and Delta Force are UFC.
@BadHalfPenney Spec Op warriors are the ONLY crew in the US military that trains hand to hand combat. I know because I have trained with them, and cops, though I am neither. Most "regular" forces rely on firearms alone. We do both. Cops don't have time to learn h2h. True masters are responsible for their students, and will train no one for money alone. I am campaigning to make guys like this as responsible for deaths caused by their students as dealers of any weapon are: accessories to murder.
@BadHalfPenney I have nothing more to say on this matter. I am too busy to argue. Anyone who deserves my respect will understand my point. Anyone who doesn't agree can bunk with one of those dudes in prison for all I care. Just pray he is not a pederast, but that is usually the price of losing a fight to one in jail, or death, just to prove who is the boss and who is the bitch. Go there if you want.
@sonofthedestroyer i knew a tai chi teacher once. he got me really excited just cause of the way i saw him walk through a door. seems wierd i know but it was really inspiring and awesome. some kind of different energy. good stuff. it was the bearing of his body.
@Balor22 wushu just means martial arts. You know that right? Kungfu can be wushu, but it can also be music, dance, or any other discipline acquired through long practice and determination. There is no substitute for those, no pill or 6 week course by PayPal to take the place of you putting down your game pad, getting off your lazy ass and working at something for a long, long time.
@BadHalfPenney "There is no substitute for those, no pill or 6 week course by PayPal to take the place of you putting down your game pad, getting off your lazy ass and working at something for a long, long time." -- BadHalfPenney
I'm stealing this quote...lol. It's too true for words. Like my coach used to say, there is no substitute for hard work.
My friend's dad is a Tai Chi master. My friend was ordered by his father to kick him as hard as possible. And the force of the kick sent my friend flying instead of his dad. Can somebody please tell me how this works?
@oOSynysterOo There's the Physics answer and there's the Eastern Philosophy answer. In terms of Physics, when you attack someone you use force, at the same time there are other forces working against you, ie. Equal and Opposite Reaction. So what Tai Chi does is it follows through your attack, redirecting that attack against you. As your own force + that of the tai chi master is so great it throws you out of balance.
In Eastern philosophy Chi is used. Chi is a life energy in your body.
@TheCharonTFM Hello there, I think you are mistaking the term of "chi". In the West, I think the term "chi" means the energy force in all living things. However, the "chi" in the Western romanization of "tai chi" is not the same as "chi" of energy force.
太極 - This is the so-called Tai Chi
氣 - This is the "chi" or energy force that you mentioned.
The concept of Tai Chi is based on the principles of yin-yang symbol, the balance of opposites. That is the "physics" of the East.
@oOSynysterOo TaiGekTou is correct. I prefer to use the pinyin spelling "Taijichuan" just for that reason: e.g. to avoid confusion with people thinking it has to do with "Chi". As for how it work, it's isn't exactly newtonian physics, but like most internal arts, Taiji uses internal "structure". By lining up your muscles, bones, and momentum internally, you are strong by maintaining your structure.
@oOSynysterOo When an opponent kicks or strikes you, most of the time they are actually quite weak (e.g. off-balance, no structure) except for the moment of impact. So if you realize this and you practice enough, you exploit that weakness and attack slightly before or after the moment of impact while simultaneously avoiding the strike.
I would be more convinced of videos like this if the 'attacker' in the scenario actually acted like it was a real fight... They always throw slow punches and don't use any momentum.
@Richyroooooo it doesn´t matter if punches go fast or with momentum. Tai chi its about to get empty the opponent- alot of fighters , that start to train tai chi its very difficult for them to get used to this kind of technique.u know tai chi is the ultimate boxin
@shabutch If you ever watched hero (jet li movie), the highest level of a swordsman (well more a puguilist sword martial artist in that movie), is to have no sword in your hand, no sword in your heart, and his arms open, to accept peace love and harmony in the world.
the last move wtf is deadly... what happened to the peace and just pushing the opponent away?... the tai chi dood couldn't keep his cool and got pissed off at the other guy keep coming back and decided to pack him up =.=
@thecobra9999 there are many arts that use the momentum of the attacker against them, they are simply called soft arts, like shaolin, tai chi, baguazhang, tsoi li ho, aikido, jujutsu, ninjutsu, san soo
@MDNSBS i dont do sanshou* or sanda, those are different from my art. sanshou and sanda is the sportfighting version of my art, tsoi li ho fut hung kung fu san soo

@Balor22 wushu just means martial arts. You know that right? Kungfu can be wushu, but it can also be music, dance, or any other discipline acquired through long practice and determination. There is no substitute for those, no pill or 6 week course by PayPal to take the place of you putting down your game pad, getting off your lazy ass and working at something for a long, long time.

My friend's dad is a Tai Chi master. My friend was ordered by his father to kick him as hard as possible. And the force of the kick sent my friend flying instead of his dad. Can somebody please tell me how this works?
oOSynysterOo 1 year ago
@oOSynysterOo There's the Physics answer and there's the Eastern Philosophy answer. In terms of Physics, when you attack someone you use force, at the same time there are other forces working against you, ie. Equal and Opposite Reaction. So what Tai Chi does is it follows through your attack, redirecting that attack against you. As your own force + that of the tai chi master is so great it throws you out of balance.
In Eastern philosophy Chi is used. Chi is a life energy in your body.
TheCharonTFM 1 year ago
@TheCharonTFM Hello there, I think you are mistaking the term of "chi". In the West, I think the term "chi" means the energy force in all living things. However, the "chi" in the Western romanization of "tai chi" is not the same as "chi" of energy force.
太極 - This is the so-called Tai Chi
氣 - This is the "chi" or energy force that you mentioned.
The concept of Tai Chi is based on the principles of yin-yang symbol, the balance of opposites. That is the "physics" of the East.

jalil124 1 year ago
@oOSynysterOo TaiGekTou is correct. I prefer to use the pinyin spelling "Taijichuan" just for that reason: e.g. to avoid confusion with people thinking it has to do with "Chi". As for how it work, it's isn't exactly newtonian physics, but like most internal arts, Taiji uses internal "structure". By lining up your muscles, bones, and momentum internally, you are strong by maintaining your structure.

The correct pinyin spelling is Tai Ji Quan.

@sylkwormm so you say you dont not use chi in tai chi? lol thats where the power comes from in most kung fus and all internal styles
MDNSBS 1 year ago
@oOSynysterOo When an opponent kicks or strikes you, most of the time they are actually quite weak (e.g. off-balance, no structure) except for the moment of impact. So if you realize this and you practice enough, you exploit that weakness and attack slightly before or after the moment of impact while simultaneously avoiding the strike.

I would be more convinced of videos like this if the 'attacker' in the scenario actually acted like it was a real fight... They always throw slow punches and don't use any momentum.
Richyroooooo 1 year ago 2
@Richyroooooo it doesn´t matter if punches go fast or with momentum. Tai chi its about to get empty the opponent- alot of fighters , that start to train tai chi its very difficult for them to get used to this kind of technique.u know tai chi is the ultimate boxin

@shabutch If you ever watched hero (jet li movie), the highest level of a swordsman (well more a puguilist sword martial artist in that movie), is to have no sword in your hand, no sword in your heart, and his arms open, to accept peace love and harmony in the world.

this is bullshit. obviously choreographed. you can even see Master Wong anticipate attacks by moving into strike-specific defense on some of these.
