Tai Chi Combat 1 video Preview

[GearsofFate101]

i have to admit, I winced whenever he struck the volunteer. Some of the strikes he was hitting that guy with looked as if it would hurt like hell even with the padding that guy was wearing.

[lobofaca707]

This is beautiful.

[LUVMAGNUMGUNS2]

love the music, who is this?

[loshmymilos]

@LUVMAGNUMGUNS2 that master wong

[loshmymilos]

@LUVMAGNUMGUNS2 that is master wong sory

[RichardThePear]

it hurts like a mother to get struck. Tai chi is the art of moving your chi (energy) from your core to your limbs (or wherever it may be needed). When they put all that energy and balance into a slow or even close up strike. . . . ouch. Bruce Lee's one inch punch is a good example. It's extremely controlled, yet powerful movements.

[ninjamike18]

get out of my bubble!

[sauron932]

omg!! hes a waterbender! xd

[hassan1634]

has any one of these movie producers or directors considered master wong to choreograph the action ( martial arts) in their movies im preaty sure it would be a nice action flick

[unheardvoice11]

This stuff looks fabulous. But its normal stuff for Chinese children who practice this from the age of 5. They fight with weapons when they grow up!

[Shuukyou]

@unheardvoice11 fight who with weapons?

[miloradple1]

NAME OF THE SONG SOMEONE PLZ

[morath1000]

wie balet

[octoberb0rn]

I just started watching your videos about a week ago and love them. You are an amazing martial artist, Master Wong. I will be ordering some dvd's soon. Very inspiring and your teaching methods are very detailed and easy to understand.

[KeeganGallardo123]

i want to see this guy fight his clone.

[XLRO8]

@KeeganGallardo123 like in "the one"? that would be awesome

[kadendiran]

wew is this really the same as what old people do in hong kong every morning

I'm 14 and I wanna learn Tai Chi and seeing this video it seems I can also use it for self protection

[llleeonnn]

master wong is my fucking hero!

[Breaker960130]

i can feel the power coming out from his body

[celticbattleaxe]

@Breaker960130 Same here, friend. :)

A lot of blue and purple aura fields.

[Wariar11]

Do you think that physical strength is a necessity in Tai chi and other similar styles of martial arts?

[AmphibianStudios]

@Wariar11 i believe its more about flexibility..balance..and um "form"..strength can come from those rather than just using brute strength.

[GaolisVideoLog]

@Wariar11 Physical strength plays an innate and important role in all physical work. That includes the martial arts and also styles like Tai chi. However, this does not mean big muscles only, but applicable strength combined with muscle memory. In order to learn more w/o having to go to Asia, look at academic work on sports, biology, physiotherapy, bionics or similar topics.

[sewagedweller]

@Wariar11 very little physical strength is need , you use your whole body to deliver a blow or throw

[dyegomarcal]

someone put this guy on the new Tekken, please? will be great make a strong fight between this bald man and yoshimitsu, for example.

[tengokunoshi]

3:36 is amasing speed @_@

[manwudang]

It looks like Wing Chun more than Tai Chi.

[DarkMan649]

[harleyqslovechild88]

[harleyqslovechild88]

aweome video clip

[MistaX32]

@TheMartialartsJedi part 3:It's a matter of opinion but I'm in the EWTO and know many martial artists who did karate, kick-boxing, judo, aikido, BJJ you name it but they all found their way with WT. You don't see much of it in mma but that's due to the rules, WT is not a sport, it's a self-defence system that has many ugly tecniques that can aid in a life/death situation. This is an old vid on WT with Victor in Spain, looking a little brutal, search: "WT Demo...Victor Gutierrez "

[MistaX32]

@TheMartialartsJedi Part 2:It's what Bruce Lee learned from Wong Shun Leung and Yip Man (he later invented JKD but nevertheless). I would suggest you stayed with WT until you get your tecnitians degree, then you can focus on doing perhaps more "fun" things, which help you relax or let go of your stress better. but in my opinion these are too many circular movements which have longer trajectories and therefore require more time to impact => slower (although most likely more powerfull mind you).

[MistaX32]

@TheMartialartsJedi

Part 1 : In my opinion WT (Wing Tsun, Wing Chun or Ving Chun depending by who and where you are taught) is the more effective combat system. It's the more intelligent fighting system, economy of movement, speed ("speed in combat is to hit an enemy without being hit", Bruce Lee I believe) and that's why I do martial arts, I don't know about you but I do it to hit and not get hit because depending on your opponent you may or may not be able to afford to take a hit.

[sttawk]

Cool. I've never seen tai chi used actual combat.  I've done searches before, and only found jokes.

[LordMordrag]

@TheMartialartsJedi looks like u answered yourself :))

do so, mutch respect !

[Schattenbrecher]

Geil!! ^^

[desaster200]

coś pięknego !!!!!!!!!!!!11

[celticbattleaxe]

I would hate to be Master Wong's assistant being beat-up (or at least it seems it!!! OUCH!!!!!)!!!

[VFXJarnold]

That dude can take a beating

[Nunziohotpants]

the tao de ching teaches that training for combat is the most shameful of acts. How to they justify having created a full form of combat?

[Nunziohotpants]

the tao de ching teaches taht training for combat is the most shameful of acts, how do they justify the creating of a form of combat then?

[eddiedaskull]

mr wrong should be a fight video game character

watching him is like watching mortal combat

[poundofbutter]

I actually Learned the yang form from watching master wong on youtube after reading that tai chi is a good way to achieve longevity but, i also have been doing kung fu for over 20 yrs and ive been learning jeet kune do for the last 7 and if u look at his partner in the video you will notice that when master wong counters his partner stops and waits. anyone who's ever learned Bruce Lee's Philosophy on fighting knows that a real fight is never so choreographed. Master Wong is the best on the Net

[mzrealm]

Feel sorry for the volunteer ragdoll.

[Shuukyou]

@mzrealm or maybe it really does hurt

[mamba109]

@Gza36Chambers They have reasons to "take the fall." Enter an Aikido dojo and you'll see people flipping and twirling, because if they don't, their arms would be violently twisted apart. And if that happened, who would have partners to train with?

[Gza36Chambers]

@mamba109

You cannot correlate aikido and other momentum martial arts to this. This the guy is clearly jumping out of exaggeration.

[wavyriver]

His tai Chi is much better than his Wing Chun

[juanchogaerlan]

Thanks Master Wong for all your efforts here on youtube!

[Smrnv06]

This no tai chi

[Zoklor]

@Smrnv06 I disagree, just because tai chi is slow, does not mean it does not have application.

[JoseMunozRojas]

@Zoklor If you want to improve martial skills, you must practice it fast

[Zoklor]

@JoseMunozRojas I agree to some extent, I guess you have not heard of form and muscle memory though. When you practice a move for the first time, do you do it really fast? or do you move slower to make sure technique is good and you understand the move? In a true martial setting where combat is happening, I doubt the form stays true but the movement and muscle memory are there. There in lies the application and the practice of martial arts.

[JoseMunozRojas]

@Smrnv06 How many kind of Tai Chi do you know?

[JoseMunozRojas]

@Smrnv06 How many kind of Taiji do you know?

[JoseMunozRojas]

@Smrnv06 jhgjgjgjgjgjgjhg

[Zolleeeee]

i could imagine him in MortalCombat too...

[manueldjj]

Master Wong u are the best!!!

[MrErszenyKrisztian]

It means like tai chi chuan, but this is a strange wavering form. And this too low straddle is good to get a kick to balls. This is a good hip-hop dance, with comic scary face. Congratulations!

[kameshita]

I want this series on youtube,,

[ntobsa]

@kameshita it is on youtube now

[kameshita]

@ntobsa oh, it's the chen tai chi? nice,, now I just have to get through yang tai chi,,

[AHHUAT2]

Luckily, the demonstrator has wore a body suit, otherwise the rib cage will be broken. Taiji uses more push and sweep than punches to defect one's aggressor.

[thomas12349]

i would love to learn tai chi

[erszenykrisztian]

This is a really funny "master"...

[TopherZapdos]

I'd like to see you say that to master wongs face.....there is 2 ways it would go down, 1: you'd get your ass kicked 12 different ways in 4 seconds or 2: you wouldn't say it and pussy out

[Waxfiretape]

Master!

[jhaer27]

wow. .i'm stunned

[alansmithy85]

I often wonder if those people I see practicing tai chi in the park realize it can be sped up for combat. : /

[MJ198210]

alansmithy - yes of course they know this. They are often the most self-actualized people on the planet.

[solnegrolunaroja]

Many people think Tai Chi is not useful, because the only know Yang style. The first of the five main styles is Chen. Chen style was created for combat by a retired general, he organized a police corp in his familiy's valley against armed bandits.

[blinkninja]

does anyone else just love the last 30 seconds of ass kicking?

[lordtains]

definitely

[GeneralHoohah]

He is good, but I'd like to see a real application... his opponent looks like he's purposely loosing.

[VicJones01]

I can't front i do love his tai-chi forms they're awesome.

[dakaha1]

you are the master!

[riisimees]

don't let your ribs open while doing kicks, its not good

[jaytech3000]

i studied this for 4 years, very relaxing

[macktheknife888]

The meaning of life.

Ultimaty, when you view it from the highest dimension, there is no time and no space, there is no future and no past, it all is occuring in one fascinating moment of expression, but time is an illusion that has purpose.

[TheNirvanaChair]

I think that's a good way to put it

[crow5by5]

He definitely been doing this for a very long time.

[ryetallon1]

wing chung and jkd are great arts and eazer to master the tai chi but not more practial in the long run because wing chung and jkd are based a lot on close in fighting and traping skills every style is different but every fight is different too in a real fight you can trap every punch and some fights you can trap at all. real tai chi harder to learn and takes more time but it all so teaches a wider ranger of skills then wing chung or jkd. and is well worth the extra time and work.

[dongchinchin]

damn master wong is good!

[JKDbd81]

good video and where can i find this musik?

[ntobsa]

2:20 madness :)

[jarsalmi]

After seeing this video it has become my very big interest to learn tai chi and wing chun to help me keep in health and shape, and also protect myself against attackers in the cruel world!

Thank you Master Wong, please never stop making these videos.

[SamrauiChamploo02]

where can i find music like this?

[Clikityclack07]

great vid

[redbulljon]

this guy is awsome

[musangoido]

Nice vid

[salad5150]

I want to learn Tai Chi but if it takes as long as everybody says to get good enough for self defense I'll probably just learn wing chun. Is Tai Chi really that hard to use ?

[TaijiBum]

Depends on how good your teacher is, and whether or not he places emphasis on combat elements of Tai Chi.

Make sure you have a good teacher. Otherwise you will be wasting your time and money.

[jibaro4]

You are right learning Tai Chi takes time. But that goes for all real Martial Arts. The thing is you are not going to wake up one day and say "Hey I can get into a fight and win using Tai chi. This is awesome." It will just happen. Your muscles will remember everything and you can use it. Someone may touch you and without thinking you will do some kind of move to protect yourself. Then you will realize that you are finally getting it.

[maxboucher86]

is that how tai chi really works gosh how cool is that now i want to learn lol, which style of tai chi is master wong doing anyone knows

[haraldf09]

man man, das ist mal sehr geil. ich galube ich melde mich in sowas an. wird zeit das ich mal was für meinen körper und geist mache. ich denke das macht auch viel spass

5/5

[Brianmystic2]

BOOOYA Chen style tai chi

[Parrotstone]

does anyone know the name of this piece of music?

[PaPhotographer]

F.I.N.A.L.L.Y the perfect combination of self-centered physical fitness, meditation, relaxation, and real-world combat defense. I can guarantee I'll be buying his vids. Even for the (more active) forms shown of the Chi set. Damn I like this guy!

[FrankieWenner]

finally? hasnt tai chi like hundreds of years old? or more?

just saying.

[PaPhotographer]

Uh yes. Not the point. The origins of Tai Chi are somewhat sketchy and ARE contested. Some say training, some fitness, some meditation, and others defense. Our society (I speak of U.S. because that's what I know,) is big on drama fighting. The methods that take countless hours to perfect when basic street fighting strategies out perform them. Tai Chi taught in this way encompasses EVERY aspect: relaxation, fitness, defense, meditation, rehabilitation, and more. No need to be a smartass.

[TheNirvanaChair]

I think Tai Chi can be used in lots of different ways, and people can take out what they want of it, one of the - relaxation, fitness, defense, meditation, rehabilitation, and more - for their own needs :)

[jcravelo]

is really great this master

[supernoobice]

his stance is soo low. his leg power is so obvious in this vid. nice job.

[miguelmusicman]

GREAT!!

[Metan2468]

name of music??

[hellsfortune]

Perhaps It is the release of internal Chi before the external force makes contact with the body.

[Rareshp93]

"

Master Wong.

My ambition is, to learn this "art" of combat.

How much time should I spend to train?

After seeing this video about your training, I'm very motivatet to do it as well !

Thank you."

[asianboycn]

want to be as good as u :)

[PostApocalypticChase]

New Tekken Character! Master Wong!

[5154371]

see u soon brother

[Robertneo]

I wonder his technique will work all the time in real fights. His skill is useful for self defence and practicing it is good for health. Those professional fighters, they will fight anybody. They are the true fighters, for money of course.

[KindredBrujah]

Robertneo - He also practices Wing Chun and Jeet Kune Do, so I suspect he would be just fine. Maybe not using only Tai Chi, but no true master of multiple arts would restrict themselves to only one. Certainly not JKD anyway.

On-topic, personally I don't believe Tai Chi can be taught to a novice. You need a martial art already mastered. But Master Wong is really quite stunningly good at it. Although you can see elements of the Wing Chun style in his attacks.

[gringolazlo]

nonsense. IT is learning tai chi first which make other martial arts easier. I can see where your coming from though. If you do tai chi, the wing chun forms are a cakewalk, so are karate katas.

[KindredBrujah]

I don't disagree that learning Tai Chi makes other martial arts easier, but I still believe, as much just in understanding the virtue of patience, that trying to teach it to a novice is a guaranteed waste of time. Obviously, if the person only wishes to learn Tai Chi for the health benefits (cardio, flexibility), then it's a wonderful means to do so. As a martial art though, to take it to this level, it is too long-term to get anything out of within a normal person's patience.

[dbaisa68]

i like the music.

[S4muraiKuma]

Master Wong.

My ambition is, to learn this "art" of combat.

How much time should I spend to train?

After seeing this video about your training, I'm very motivatet to do it as well !

[S4muraiKuma]

Very good master Wong ... I like it very much!!
