he advocates the development of flexibility, lean, long, fast twitch muscle. it depends on how you lift weights. generally he feels that kung fu training without weights is preferable but there are no hard and fast rules, just in general.
When you strip all fighting arts to its very essence, a punch is a punch and a kick is a kick. Ultimately, the individual is more important in the proper execution of strategy in any fight.
Basically, humans must operate under the natural laws of gravity, physics, and geometry.
Styles fly out the window in life or death situations.
A style is identified by a given name and may or may not be effective in a life saving situation.
does anyone know what he thinks about which is better to use in fights? in a fight, would it be better to use traditional shaolin or san da? i'm just curious to see what his opinion is.
his opinion, generally speaking, is there are guns nowadays. other than that, knock the other person out as fast as possible. san da elements are traditional anyway.
there is no wat style is better its wat style u like to use n also on instinct sum ppl like to punch sum ppl like to kick sum ppl like to throw u gota find a style u like
If you join his class, is it absolutely necessary to shave your head? Just asking, because I'm thinking about training in the future, but I don't know if I'd look good bald...

the black dude in the video is the RZA from wu tang clan. he did the sound track for kill bill 1 and 2, he probably made it for this video exclusively.
depends. some monks maintain a presence in the temple, such as shi de yang, others have basically left the temple and now teach outside it, in dengfeng, or abroad...or a mixture of locations- so it really depends on which monk you are looking to train with.
nobody is trying to make this about who is no.1. can we save that for Godzilla vs Kong, and not put monks up against each other. This is a video about one monk's story. They all have their specializations and of course some people are going to gush over their favorites and some are not going to agree.
I'm only posting this because I would like to keep comments in a good direction and "who is the best" as a direction is not the spirit of this video.
I agree with shaolinforever. This guy has the grace and the power, but he is not the best. Ask any Shaolin Temple monk and they will inform you that no one practitioner of their skills is the "best". Example: the UK has the lighting speed of Shi Yan Xin, watch his vids for examples.
don't say he is NO 1 monk, i trained with him for a while, and i've train with another,...monks at 32 Generation are some of the best Shi Xing Hong, Zhang Li Peng and Shi Xing hao are a only a few to named, but other generations have their legends..31st have Shi Decheng, 35th have She Heng Jun, or She Hengfa, or Shi Hengxin (from NY)..etc, etc...maybe Yan Ming is your master but don't say..his the best arround, no offense !!!
This guy is no fussy vegetarian monk and I like him for his realness - lots of masters like to go down the mystical path to confuse people for money - but Sifu Shi Yan Ming's philosophy is short "More Qi and train harder"
