    I'm a practitioner of Hung Ga Kung Fu, Tang Fong lineage, and also of Kickboxing. And let me assure you, Hung Ga is not "Oriental horseshit" It is a very demanding martial art which conditions the body, the mind, and trains you physically, teaches you how to fight, and builds self discipline.

    Kickboxing, in contrast, is empty compared to it.

    I welcome any comment you have, and will respond to it politely and constructively as best i can.

  • The tiger is supposed to attack without relent, even when countered it muscles through the damage and keeps attacking. It's techniques are based around ripping and gouging the skin and using more blunt force damaging techniques, like straight up front thrust kicks and huge punches. How to throw your body weight around quickly in succession is taught, as well as how to look intimidating as well. Tiger has a good mental aspect to it because you truly have to be fierce to play it well.

  • Awesome video!

  • @ThePelly

    lol, nice.

    i just got back from a tooth exgractgion so i mightg be not understanding

  • @kenseisato1989

    It's a pretty awesome club :D We also have a dog mascot. A Boxer. (Irony). Called "Kali" (More irony)

  • @ThePelly

    i hear that all the time from peole who trains with gi and no gi. i have a gi too but i just don't have the money right now to pay for judo or bjj :(

    dude that is awsome! so many arts!

  • @kenseisato1989

    I've found training with Gi also helps my No-gi game. I train at the Aberdeen Martial Arts Group, The list of arts taught there are: Striking - Muay Thai, Western Boxing, Panantukan and JKD Kickboxing Clinching - JKD Grappling, Muay Thai Takedowns / Takedown Defence - JKD Grappling, Judo, Dumog Ground Grappling - Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Combat Submission Wrestling

    (from the list on their website)

  • @ThePelly

    me too i prefer it over bjj. i like no gi to because right now i compete in mma.

    thats awsome that you have a local mma group.

    what other styles are in your group?

  • @kenseisato1989

    My local MMA group has a student of Paulson's who teaches it. I prefer it over BJJ, i prefer No gi over gi grappling.

  • @ThePelly

    yes,

    how do you know about CSW? i know its not the most popular martial arts/sports mma system

  • @kaindrg

    Right. So what did you mean by "just have an open challenge" ? Was this intended to be a scathing insult? If so, i hardly think you're qualified to make such bold statements about an art which you haven't learned.

  • @kenseisato1989

    You too train in CSW? Erik Paulson's system?

  • @ThePelly nope. im a athropologist and a historian and iahve been doing research into martail arts history. my biting commney was based entirely on self defense.

  • @kaindrg

    Reading some of your comments, Have you studied Hung Ga? If so, can you tell me about your Sifu and lineage?

  • @kenseisato1989 well i know one of two things , you can practice ooppaing and learn to turn the person over. or learn to keep his face close to years. so he can't get up right and u can bite his face. then if he oppas you if ur mounting him then u can still go into bitting. butafte biting(if ur the one being mounted) hes gonna pop up from teh pain of getting his face consumed. break his neck or hit him as he is coming up in pain.

  • @kaindrg

    dude im saying that how the hell are you sopposed to fight someone when your mounted? shure you can tiger claw vital points but your just at a total disadvantage. just like standing your opponent can block any strikes.

  • @kenseisato1989 tiger claw the liver. where u would normally place a body shot, or groin shot/tear. i would have assumed hung gar taining would teach u to not fall over. or atleast engage soem stand up grappling to avoid falling over.

  • @kaindrg

    well of course, if your alone your fucked though.

    i've done traditional martial arts for 5 years and i got to practice hung ga and its deadly as hell but if your mounted and your alone your fucked.

    i train in thai boxing and submission grappling and combat submission wrestling.

  • @kenseisato1989 that never happend in pre modern times rather than moounting peopl just killed the one on teh ground or had a freind stab him . if u look at all the combat ma from all over the world Kampfringen, medival combat arts, military style of wrestling the point was to just get some one on teh ground hence many sports adaptation involve rule so that the back of ur opponent had to tough the ground inorder to score.

  • @ThePelly just have an open challenge

  • @CommanderYuan thanks for the reply, ThePelly has aready replied to me via DM a while back. Right now im using Wing Chun, Systema (Russian martial art) and Sanda to complement my game, for lack of a good Hung Gar school in my country. :)

  • @toolfan92 I honestly have not tried the combat applications, but I'm sure you could pull out a technique or 2 to surprise your opponent. I actually use similar blocking and parrying to Hung Ga when I throw hands, but it's slightly sloppier and impromptu, just like how any other style would look in a live match. I also bet the conditioning would help you out in such training. However, best you wait for ThePelly's answer. He's much more knowledgable about Hung Ga.

  • Hahaha! People dont realize that Kung Fu IS kickboxing! The sport was popularized in 1950's japan, while Sanda was formulated and used in 1920 by the Chinese military. The strikes are derived from Hung Ga along with other Kung Fu forms into a popular ruleset that allowed kung fu practicioners to spar full contact with less risk of severe injury! The Japanese were in SERIOUS trouble fighting the Chinese in close quarters urban combat in WW2 because of such forms of kung fu!

  • @ThePelly how would Hung Gar fare in mma? im looking for good stuff to complement my muay thai/boxing game.

  • If you're talking about ground fighting, the Chinese had plenty of opportunities to develop grappling techniques. After all, The Mongolians were expert wrestlers. Chin Na is the name of a group of grappling & submission techniques, which you can see in many styles of Kung Fu. Hung Ga makes particular use of Tiger claw techniques, which although i haven't mastered myself, i have seen that they are very effective in most grappling situations, be it clinch or groundwork.

  • @ThePelly

    lol sorry,

    when someones on top of you
