  • Some of these movements kind of remind me of Silat...

    Did he roll with you guys at all?

  • No. He had a knee injury. I would have liked to though.

  • does shua jiao compose of ground fighting or just throwing ur opponenet to the floor

  • just standing

  • Having said that, I don't want to speak for Chris.

  • not trying to be a jerk here, but all that i needed to hear was your first initial comment that SJ takes alot of strength. That tells me just how little u know! Please leave SJ to those of us that truely love and understand it. Don't teach somthing that u know nothing about!

  • Chris Friedman was just in a Kung Fu magazine claiming to have studied 20 yrs.

    I saw him about 5 years ago when he first started as a beginner...sad

  • the warm ups are not flashy moves. They are forms and belt cracking. Forms clean up your technique and belt cracking gives you tendon and ligament strength

  • @symmetry08

    well lets see,

    kungfu->Karate->taekwondo

    chinese wrestling/chi na (kungfu)->Jujitsu->judo>bjj/sa­mbo

    Those are the mainstream arts, i can keep going..

  • chinese combat technics weren't effective in real life situations. Prove how many nations that totally disregarded chinese styles occupied them again and again? History is the best teacher to learn from.

  • This guy is a joke!!!

  • This guy is a joke!!!

  • most of those warm us seemed pointless... alot of flashy moves..

  • I think that what he means is that the application of strength in Shuai Jiao is more obvious to the naked eye than let's say Judo or Jujutsu. I don't think that he means that Shuai Jiao is all about muscle and no technique

  • @SoundwaveSuperior373 As I am taught, it's throwing your opponent on your knee, ground etc. so your opponents lands on his/her neck, spine etc so that he/she would die or get maimed. That's the old way of course, you can do it more nicely but the point is that it's considered to do so that your opponent can't use ground game because, well, that's it for him/her.

  • @sha167 How I am taught shuai techniques is that they try to minimize the use of strength with body movement and unbalancing the opponent. Though of course there's physical conditioning. Maybe this is different type of shuai.

  • This guy is teaching this stuff to Sambists and Judoka? Teach yer Granny how to suck eggs...
