For more information about, Chan Hon Chung: http://www.hungkuen.net/masters-chanhonchung.htm

These recordings are from the, BBC Documentary series (1983): The Way Of The Warrior!

BBC docu "Way of the Warrior"
The series was originally broadcast by the BBC in the early 1980's and was comprised of 8 episodes which featured top Masters of each system. Each part lasts approx 35-40 minutes so the total content is approx 5½ hours long. It is not intended as a training tutorial. It is a documentary going into the rich historical background, philosophy, methods and practices of each system. Each part has numerous footage of demonstrations, explanations and practical applications. Whichever martial art system you may be studying this is a very absorbing and inspiring series.

2 Kalari 'The Indian Way'

3 Aikido and Kendo 'The Sporting Way'

4 T'ai Chi 'The Soft Way' - also included Hsing Yi and Ba Gua

  • break her heart and her father will break your legs

  • sifu's daughter is really beautiful. wish i can see her again.

  • Good stuff! Chan Hon Chung is one of the greatest masters of Hung Gar. He is one of the best kung fu masters.

  • @maceioninjutsu thats incorrect, the point is not to begin with forearm contact, its to teach sensitivity once the forearms or any other part of the body touch. the emphasis is placed on sensitivity which is a skill itself, it can take years to even begin to build this type of sensitivity.

  • The forms in kung fu are great for keeping you fit, strong and flexible. If you can learn to use the animal applications then they are very useful, also kung fu has sanda and chin na these are fighting techniques that you would more commonly use in a street fight but like i said if you are good then you can us ethe animal applications to. I practice Hung Kuen at my University its an a brilliant style

  • Awesome!

  • It CAN start like that but it's not everytime.

  • Here's an example:

    If a skilled fighter is fighting an opponent who isn't skilled , and if he wants to have contact with the opponents arm.

    Then there's a great chance, that he will succeed, within a couple attempts.

    Thereby having a complete different ratio, then you claim.

    It is not that difficult (for an technically skilled fighter) to read the opponent. And to have him doing what you want him to do.

    For example, by faking an opening, luring the assailant to open himself up

  • Another thing, you keep having the assumption that martial artists only have one alternative, in a fight.

    Yes! what you say, is probably one of the philosophies in WT, but that doesn't mean they don't have other alternatives/philosophies when it comes to fighting.

    Your point falters due to ignorance.
