I truly love these clips. I think they represent something very pure in Chinese Martial Arts. It amazes me that those kids doing the simultaneous form around 3:33 are probably into their 50s by now.
This clip is a priceless gem......traditional chinese kung fu....no watered down flashy bullshit. Even recognized one of the forms I learned a while back....
Amazes me such stupid coments from most of comentarists. THE SIMPLICITY, THE PURITY AND THE QUALITY OF THE KUNG FU FORMS, THE HUMBLE ATMOSPHERE, THE REDUCED SPACE AND THE ELEGANCE OF THE MASTERS DRESSED IN SUITS. GRAND MASTER Liu Yuen Chiao WAS THERE AND SIFU SU YU CHANG, AND OTHERS. THIS VIDEO IS A HISTORICAL DOCUMENT, AND THANKS TO THEM THAT DEDICATED PART OF THEIR LIVES TO STUDY KUNG FU, MANY OF US CAME IN CONTACT WITH THESE TEACHINGS. MY RESPECT TO ALL ALFREDO ZURITA VENEZUELA
You need to let those old hatreds go man. I have neither animosity for Taiwanese or Chinese people. Apparently, what they say about prejudice being passed down from the older generation because you are a shining example of it.
Priceless archived footage of martial arts in Taiwan in that era. Video cam didn't exist then (1960's), so this is indeed quite rare, and the picture quality is reasonably good too, unfortunately there's no explanatory text to enlighten us viewers as to who's the martial artist and what form he/she was playing. If someone can edit the clips and add the information it will be more informative and educative to general viewers. Great footage, I really enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing.
u kno i find u funny u dont believe in kung fu. My friend he fights in the octagon, and he took his opponent down in less than two minutes solely using white crane. Man UFC and Pride really messed up the media. BTW my friend is benny, hes a professional trainer listed as top 100 from fitness magazine, he trains under the gracies during this summer in chicago. ANd FYI chicago has one of the top MMA centers in the nation. stop being ignorant.

z3r006, I know that YOU are the same type of SHIT that told those idiots during the Boxer Rebellion that they'll be immune to bullets because of their chi!
How did UFC and Pride mess up the media? Where is all of your chi farting fighters on top of the heap in MMA? If none of YOU can CUT it in what simulate a real fight, then don't waste Taiwanese people's time! Go promote your SHIT to idiots in China section NOT Taiwan section!!
Incredible document. Thanks for posting!

TCMA one of the best documents that shows the powers, practicality and existance of tcma way before wu shu or mma.
