Martial Street Art: Push Hands: Introduction

[habashi360]

great low hand technique

[92071551743]

he is got the same smile as phoebe buffay.

[aqmpoet]

I like his style and relaxed, happy way of going on about this. What he says makes a lot of sense. I could care less what he looks like, because looks are nothing. It's all about what's inside you, and if that's sounding cliche', then so be it. I like the "energy" I'm getting from listening to this man. I'll be checking out more of this going forward.

[Rlucaciu]

In all warrior cultures there are also some bullshitters who claim to know what real combat is about. Nobody pays attention to them.

[solomonsworld]

I've know Roberto 25 yrs. He's the real deal

Nothing flaky about him

[69kakinho]

wish I could get lessons from him-:) PLS HELP MASTER

[CamoFreak123]

Hmm his knowledge is pro

[frankodivinci]

[socialxxblast]

HE IS JAMAICAN I WAS RIGHT

nice teeth

[martinpaulwatts]

Excellent lucid smile and explanations ! - You remind me of bobby mcferrin doing training! Best wishes from the med.

[bloated]

this fool needs to stop sucking off the community and get a job... oh yeah, go to the dentist and shave off his dirty beard...

[cfG21]

@bloated what makes you think that he is sucking off the community? he sounds more articulate than you and looks to be a rasta. it may be cultural thing to have a beard. Other cultural have beards.

[lubbockboy1]

@bloated Roberto Sharpe has a degree in law, he is an educated, articulate and spiritually evolved man. He's a very impressive individual.

[mattrooding]

What a great guy wish I could get lessons from him! Great teacher great man and he just is DOPE :)

True Sifu.

[justinphilpott]

wise words and concisely explained... thank you :)

[jojogto]

Fire your dentist!

[ripper1157]

Though your words are harsh, you were drawn to this video. MAybe its time to see through the ignorance of your position. And hear the words he speaks from his heart. You mustve had some form of interest?

[amrakanavrin]

Amazing explanation - I love how he talks about Chi Sao and the reasoning and history throughout all martial styles - then the sparring vs. fluidic training explanation...wow...

[andeciuala]

oh my god will he stop to talk any day?

[Carljoakimmm]

@andeciuala if u dont wish to hear his words, then stop watching his video

[kleenextx]

I've seen a few of the other videos from this guy and he seems like a great teacher. He's very knowledgeable in different styles and history. I hope he's getting the respect he deserves

[yinyinkong2559]

great teacher

[Mir4el]

Thanks ,greate explanation!

[daz45]

people want a solid striking self defense, muay thai, shotokan, boxing are best muay thai kicks and clinching knees will put down an attacker, shotokan points fighting is unbelievably underrated the ability to get the first strike in and counter an opponent and avoid strikes, then you have boxing, you can counter and block punches, throw punches accurately and technically correct, you can use good footwork, as 99% of street fights are brawls boxing is key.

[daz45]

if you do push hands you will learn to get ktfo from not tucking your chin.

[jirildo]

Sorry bro but maybe you should look into pushteeth before pushhands. I hope you fixed those bottom teeth......

[AandJness]

u ugly..shave ur beard ur not chineese

[andresgarza66]

spirituality + fight training = getting your ass spanked.

[WickeDFate4]

I love this video.

Without guidance, sticky hands leads most people towards aggression.

Especially if you don't have respect for your partner.

Thank you "sifu".

[thescoon1]

This is great! Just started Tai Chi this year, and this talk of Push Hands is a great explanation of it!

[flickerman68]

Yes that is true as long as you are OPEN to the learning :)

[wisdometernal]

This just further proves my theory. You can learn ANYTHING in the park back home...

[berni2907]

Hi

Thank you for posting this. True passion and clarity.

[sodumb123]

guuriki. u limit urself; "hope one day i to can amount to that clarity, wisdom and peace of mind". Just like 99% of the general population. Just limit urself. Place limits on ur abilities and what u can do.

[flickerman68]

It makes so much sense. Explained perfectly!

[guuriki]

i bow my head to your wisdom, hope one day i to can amount to that clarity ,wisdom and peace of mind and i thank you sir

[Tesianus]

[xXGTXOwnzAllXx]

[tdiedwards]

excallent point he makes about sparring vs shadow boxing. i'll use that in fencing - spend some time shadow fencing. i can see that working well

[WuSuanSo]

This dude knows what he's talking about. His teacher/s must be very proud of him as he is now a master in his own right. Thanks!!!

[Jd0txR3alist]

this man i wise

i would like 2 meet him n learn the capoeria fighting style

[PaceLoveRespecto]

I would love to meet this man... Good stuff

[marcelosinico]

This guy (Robert Shape) gave up of his bachelor degree in law to live his life for a philosophy.

He knows what he is.

He is a warrior, peaceful, but a warrior.

He lives unattached to mundane life for one reason, perfecting himself.

That is the determination and self giving of a warrior.

Miyamoto Musashi followed the same path after many wars.

Exile, meditation, and perfection.

[WweXtreme1]

The guy in the backgroung is weak! Only seven pullups.

[tarzanxxx000]

[busshufaita]

shut the hell up! you're only talking shit to hype people up n gettem angry, but i won't fall for that. stop being a bitch and post some videos, teach me a thing or two. until then---STFU!!!

N THIS GUY WOULD LAY YOUR ASS OUT!

[opticannon]

we all have our vices and are found lacking in our respective disciplines for instance; yours has to deal with humility and temperance. you will learn these lessons in your life if you are lucky or else you will be humiliated when you are prone to loose your temper.

[Dread78]

great answer opticannon..i like you without knowing you :-)

[asorlonnn]

LOLOL!!

u have none nothing of my yet u say ? i will be humiliated when iam prone to loose my temper.

iam a very softspoken boy if u talk with anger it will get you no where. i assume that you get your life lessons at an old age i realize these things at a young age the reason. it is my destiny as i shape and create. luck? no it is my mind my body n my soullllllllllllllllll.

[opticannon]

utter nonsense.

let me tell you boy; would you have so much contempt for yourself when you reach my age? how is it that temper is often associated with anger when it is really a matter of composure. you are arrogant and therefore you are NOT all inclusive. as if your soft spoken demeanor is a testament to your inner calm...please, you reek of passive aggressiveness...GO TO YOUR ROOM!!!

[farstar7]

what's with the hostility?

dont' be angry with other for your own shortcommings and a senseless feeling of your own guilt of unaccomplishment

TIME TO GROW UP

[opticannon]

often we judge others through the lense that we seemingly objectify the world. perhaps its time for you to objectify the lense; clear it of any smudges and grind out imperfections that may distort your "objective view".

so tell me now farstar, how you have come to project this onto me? perhaps you have not seen the whole thread of this conversation to have said these things to me? and if this wasnt addressed to me well, then i apologize for jumping to conclusions.

[Realizalize]

you da styler,

handsome, gel-haired, overdressed, face peeling slimer!?

go chat with JOOP and Lgerfeld, broker...

[asorlonnn]

1.?? i gelling hair is for little girls.. i shave my head with no bangs no. and when i have my hair grown longest prob 1 in. or so

2. u gonna give a comback have it back sense..

[trondyne]

What's up dude? Long time no see! Been a long time since the old Chinatown school... Hope you're doing well!

Are you a tai chi guy these days?

(Jim) ;)
