Taiji - Chen Style Kungfu application (Wang Zhanjun)

[Takster]

what is this crap? unless you're fighting another limp wrist this is useless.

[stupidkid915]

this is only a demonstration, he & no one else will fight like this... and you will only know if it doesn't work to go meet him and try it out... it really is a waist of time to arrogantly about how much you know on youtube to feel good about yourself

[aikidorj]

you're all pussies

[Darkangle25uk]

@aikidorj Assuming that you chose that name because you practice or have practiced Aikido? You do realise that Morihei Ueshiba also went to China to practice Tai Chi before founding the beloved art you practice fool. All of the hidden techniques are very applicable in real life situation, but I haven't the time to explain this to you. See for yourself and that applies to the rest of western ignoramuses, who are in the belief that this art is for " faggs" lol you guys make me laugh, truly..!

[Ballroomshen]

External force applied too much.

Jar-Yu.

[laca818]

wang zhajun is the greatest taiji master in china now I do believe that  he has true gongfu

[Bemap30]

Yea right, I guess he fought every taichi masters there were in China so he can claim he is the greatest tai chi master.....

[Bemap30]

Sorry, i didn't want to be rude but what i wanted to say is, how can he be better than Wang Xian....i didn't know that he was his son. But still Wang Xian is so humble, he doesn't even call himself grandmaster but he is probably the best master in chen's village, despite what Chen Xiaowang pretends. I'm learning Ma Hong's form, and for me he is one of the greatest but we will never know cuz those masters will never fight each other, and also Ma Hong is much older than Wang Xian.

[abraxnos]

make yr mind up taiji OR gong fu

to combine is to missunderstand entirely

[SuwinTzi]

gong fu/kung fu is the term for martial arts.

therefore, taiji chuan IS gong fu

[abraxnos]

incorrect my understanding is that anyone skilled may have gong fu as its skill gained through continuous practice..However in this context I use it as a term To describe the external martial arts.Simply put using muscular force not tendons as mentioned in the classics.

[anhkhoinguyen]

Gong fu is not the term for martial arts, Its only used that way in AMERICA. A lot of terms get lost in translation in the U.S.Gong fu means time n effort,skills learned example i have good kung fu in basket ball or cooking. Using incorrect terms and telling people only further inforces the misconception The proper term for martial arts in china is Zhonggua Wushu, Chuanfa,Wu-i,wu-gong or in taiwan Koushu(national skill) or in China as Wushu(martial skill) tho american mislabel it for sport wushu

[jinggangdaodui]

Not for figh? I think you knw nothing about taiji quan and tui shou. before speek I think, you should learn a litle bit more about taiji practice, philosophy and energy... Great video! Good for tuishou practicioners.

[abdonquan]

pardon sanshou, coller le partenaire permet de le contrôler, c'est plus subtil, sentir le corps du partenaire aussi finement qu'un osthéopathe et appliquer une technique martiale appropriée à sa posture.

[georgehsliew]

This is NOT for real fight. No matter how hard you try practicing this kind of exercise, you will never be able to fight. Have you ever seen any people fight like this???

[Lilmage84]

Hehe...to the untrained eye this is not fighting...TO the trained eye this is exactly what happens in a fight..one guy attacks and the other guy defends and uses what opening the opponite gives him. It works trust me..Just in the practice like this you dont wanna hurt your partner unlike MMA where they dont give a crap and people end up hurt.  When the guy leans foreward in a push it is simulating a punch. Your body still puts its weight foreward where you can take advantage of it.

[georgehsliew]

I think you should consider this:

How come no tai chi practitioners can complete with other martial artists in open tournaments?

[Troyocorus]

they do, man. in china they do it all the time.

an other thing is that tai chi has an abundance use of palming, palming is illegal in American tournaments.

[georgehsliew]

Yes, they do it all the time, but only within the tai chi circle. There are san da tournaments but no tai chi participants.

There are lots of competition on forms, push hands, but no san da.

Tai chi masters just don't know how train fighters.

[Lilmage84]

One Tai chi Masters wont hit you...wanna know why..cause they will kill you..no crapping you man..I was allowed to hit a Tai chi Master...I was handed a rattan stick and was told to attack "HER" and I did..Gave her 1 swing and she simple raised her hand blocked the stick..It shattered against her forarm and I was thrown by my own momentum. Real fighters/martial artists...the ones who have reached enlightenment do not compete...there is no need to. Only reason to fight is for defense.

[Lilmage84]

But your right Its either they dont want to train the fighters any more or they dont know how...and its the combo of both that has made Tai Chi nearly dead today..mostly why I stick with Shaolin and Southern Preying mantis...I will only throw a tai chi technique if I am fighting someone inexpiranced to control them and not harm them..I would rather throw them across the room then Break the nose or hit a kidney..I guess call it Mercy. Though Push hands does speed up your reaction time.

[sargon08]

i my self dont use Tai Chi but i use krav maga self defance and by looking at this i can see how good this moves are!! look at this video it will help you understand its called {{Tai Chi fighting strategy }}

[abdonquan]

le gars en violet est plusieurs fois champion de chine, de plus le tuishou est un avant gout seulement du snshou, combat libre.

amicalement

[stuijn]

LOL you're so naive. even though you said this 11 months ago, i still think it's a stupid comment. fighting isn't slow and the movements aren't slow when applied. i hope you researched more into tai chi over the past year.

[clygar]

Get a better opponent. GJC

[marvinkmooneyoz]

"under scientific conditions, as real as you can get" actually, this was designed under warring conditions, that is, people trying to kill each other with or without waeapons/armor. the guy who invented this was a VERY effective general. most MMA is done under GLOVED conditions where fatal or permamantly damaging attacks arent allowed. it is understandable that it is hard to see that this derives from an effective martial art, but in fact it does.

[wealiquan]

bruce lee? chuck norris defeated bruce lee with generic crap! when watching a clip like this dont even mention bruce or jkd! these guys are good!!! nearly nobody who's about real fighting like the mma guys are know how powerfull taiji is,personaly i would like to keep it that way.thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kempobrad]

chuck norris didnt defeat bruce lee

[shengchenfan]

Where in the fuck did you get that from,Chuck has never said that,Chuck will tell you himself that Bruce was what he was.

[toto352]

you're such a pussy! Mixed martial arts, including BJJ is scientific - that is it takes place under real conditions, or as real as you can get, the above is is just a choreographed ballet..i saw two kung fu masters fight in the 1950's on film and it was pathetic! one was a tai chai master..as Bruce Lee stated, someone with one years boxing and wrestling practice is more effective than many kung fu masters as above..!!

[cloud0123]

bruce lee never stated this. And furthermore you are talking of events that happened way after kung fu died (communist revolution, cultural revolution, etc.) Quit with the buttriding, unfortunately I agree. Almost nobody in IMA has a clue how to use their art.

[kempobrad]

this really isnt that different from chi sao in wing chun, or hubud in kali. when one of us strikes, the other will probably defend, ie....arms touching..ie...why this kind of exercise is useful.

[nikaubro]

about my last post: i don't meant to dis bjj or any MA and bjj certainly has it's appeal. I just get angry with all the my MA is better than yours. So i apologise if i offended any bjj exponents.

[japiepapie]

nice selfcontrol u got there wutangquan

[machaosrevenge]

LOL, right on Wutanqquan !

- now, quiet everyone while i watch this again...

[zhuz50]

wa...

[badboybrendan]

Excellent.

[Barboteur]

Applications are good for us. Thanks

[marcstyletaichi]

Awesome, really well presented applications.

[psl1800]

Anyone knows why my video got stuck at 1:25 and would not go any further?

[chinapieboy]

This is not supposed to be fighting you numbnuts. Push hands is for sensitivity training and practicing applications.

Nice push hands - I always like to see Chen style go knee to knee.

[TheBlueSmoke]

lol?

If you want to see some GOOD fighting watch some BJJ.

[swordpunisher]

?????

[Eayne]

god man... theres always someone talkin stuff all "my arts the best and yours sucks cas no one in the ufc does it"

[Wutangquan]

Fuck BJJ. You guys have fuckin pissed me off. You don't know how to spend your fucking time and you always diss kung fu and other traditional martial arts with silly bulshits like BJJ is better or Muay Thai. You know what. Fuck You All. If you want martial arts, go and practise them. Otherwise don't speak about them and if you don't like them don't fuckin get on our nerves with saying these things and shut the fuck up

[anhkhoinguyen]

Leave the jujutsu guys alone, there just over excited they can sweat and hump each other over on the ground without being suspected there homosexuals. Pulling guard and sticking other mens heads between there legs in the trangle giggling and smiling lol thats one scary martial arts tho, can you imaging fighting a Gay,steoroid raged homosexual trying pull you into his guard while wearing there UFC tapout spandex shorts?

[anhkhoinguyen]

Muay thai IS a traditional buddhist martial art btw. It shames me that a lot of americans claim they do muay thai but there realli just doing kickboxing. They dont bother to learn the Forms,rituals, stances or respect in real Muay thai. They just want to get to the elbows,knees n kicks instead thats why Thailand always owns them fake kickboxers. and yeah people bragging about BJJ or kickboxing are annoying fags. Long live the traditional arts the way it was meant to be.

[nikaubro]

BJJ? only good on matt. have u tried the to apply it in real life? cos you end up getting your head kicked in. ALSO how could this be effective on the battleground? Your a keyboard warrior bro, should leave the real stuff for the real thing.

[anhkhoinguyen]

I preferr to watch fights not jujutsu guys dry humping with man-sweat dripping all over the place. Man since when did GAY and homosexual gropping becomes so mainstream??? Jujutsu be winning in fights kuz men are so shocked there being attacked by a homosexual they freeze up and tap just to get away. i'll be scared to if you tryed getting me to the ground in your guard, and thats no groin cup! watch out! its a BONER! fagggs

[lim2]

At 2:35 the guy in purple catches a kick and throws the guy in white over his sholder, that was awesome.
