  • Guys, this shit is beyond deadly. I have seen it first hand in my garage at the hand of a Sifu. You cannot imagine how such small movements can do so much damage.

  • Three blokes tried to rob the late grandmaster around 15 years ago or so. They were all seriously injured. He was bloody hard and genuinely well respected in martial arts.

    Moves are not flashy and not obvious but all are aimed at maiming with minimal effort.

    If you want to understand Chow Gar Praying Mantis, seek instruction. It is a painful style to learn and admittedly boring at first. Lots of arm/leg conditioning/dynamic tension/partner drills.

  • This guy is like Ip man but for prying mantis, he is like yuen kay san. Amazing

  • @henh32 - Extremely painful to study.

  • Amazing!

  • Exactly. He was "being himself" while still being "in the system".

  • Sifu Ip Sui's demonstration in this video was enlighten us to follow his way of training. His playing was not restrictive by standard forms but only combined with several SanShau , moving step by step ,freely playing in front of the spectators, like walking but it is not walking, relaxation playing in two parts , hands & steps are separated ,moving smooth that was a high level presentation.If return back to young age,you can see the power.Stances we can apply to Sifu Tin Loi 's "Big San Kung "

  • yeah but ur english is slippin lol jk

  • mala la wea

  • Holy shit his hands are faster then mine at 93 (check my video out to see my speed) and I just turned 17. This mofo also knows how to suck his testicles into his body.

    He'd mop the floor with me -.-
