I have seen a number of fan katas here on youtube, however yours is the first that I saw that you actually seem to know what you're doing. Slight misstep near the end, but over all, very well done. Just a question though, aren't the backs of the fans supposed to be hidden as much as possible to the audience? There were multiple times when you flashed the backs.
Man, I'm going to miss being able to do kung fu! T_T Like I said a year ago, the form is still horrible and I could knock that boy over but since it's a dance, it's awesome. Bad form, but looks like fun ^^! I just wouldn't use it in real street battles... -_-" *Starr*
If you think that the Fan Forms were created for street battles, you are seriously wrong. They were created originally for women, as either a form of entertainment, or a subtle way to perform asassinations. Besides, most of what is taught today that is called "Karate" is pretty much useless in a real street fight. Real life isn't like the movies, kid.
@AvalonDraconis I agree with you on the fan part, but in my experience, karate isn't all flash. My sensei (and all my karate krazed family >>;) always taught that if you're fighting more than 10 seconds, your'e dancing, and if you can't do it in a telephone booth, the move is basically worthless. He trains all of his students on how to please in a tournament, and how to bash someone's brains in when they try to rape you. "karate" is definatly not worthless if you have a REAL teacher.
does it really matter if this was'nt the original form? his movements were quite smooth and well practiced regardless. (kind of reminded me of tai chi sword routines, but i wouldn't really know)
I would have to guess that it was changed to prevent some viewers from becoming "video masters". Today's technology makes it too easy for anyone to watches videos, practice the forms, and claim to have learned in actual schools. By changing it, any claims can be discounted when confronted by real practitioners. So I have to give the performer the benefit of the doubt for at least giving viewers a taste of what the form may actually be like.
Well , the video is good , but that isn't the original form , please don't change the music and the form , respect . And the name of the song is Chinese Kung Fu .
Please respect the writter of the original dance, don't change the action and movement by your own wish, if you can't follow the original version by some personal disabilities, please put more effort on it or give it up, I don't want to see there will be 20 or 30 versions of this Kung Fu Fan.
love your performance im trying to learn the fan form but i dont know any who teach out here in maui :P

are you retarded? this isn't a dance this is a kung fu form...

Don't like it. Needs to be far sharper...kung fu is meant for battle and it should performed in that way as though in the heat of battle. *Starr*
