unfortunately i don't like demonstrations like this because it's hard to get an image of the actual uses of the techniques...but i must say, if nothing else they do show off their incredible precision, agility and stamina

i live and have lived in china for 2 and a half years, all at a wushu school. Tagou. most kids start here by learning 3 years of modern wushu for basic skills, afterwards they learn traditional kung fu. by this point there basics are amazing. In all these schools there is traditional kung fu, and here i've seen abilities that don't exist anywhere else. although this guy is performance, i'll tell you he probably knows some traditional.

My friend, when one has trained tradionally one would never bastardize the art with demonstrative dribble as modern wusu. In china all the so called traditional shaolin schools are anything but. They're marketing schemes and nothing more. The real traditional Shaolin is kept hidden, seeing how the chinese government has purposely invented this modern wusu crap.

Ok, right, but what i'm saying is this guys 'shen fa' or body control is quite good. He would easily learn and be good at traditional kung fu as well. Looking at him he has most likely trained at a shaolin wushu school in china. All the students at these schools learn traditional shaolin as well as their special skill, be it competition, performance or sanda.

When one practices traditional theres is a sense of connection to something useful; combat wise and aesthetically. There is no need for showmanship or sport interpretation, because the traditional art contains it all.

[Luohan108]

However you can tell by the body movement that he is very agile and can use power. This is more than can be said for a good 90% of the fat martial arts 'masters' i've seen in the west. Agility and power is just as important as technique. This is a performance form, how do you know he doesnt also practice traditional, most of them do.
