SanShouXingYiQuan Sparring - progressive intensity

Im the one in the white, and the teacher. In this clip, we made boundaries to keep the fight "close quarters". In this video, iam mainly focusing on takedowns,strikes and grappling methods found in the 12 animal shapes and a bit of Filipino Dumog (which i love), while my student relies heavily on the 5 fists and defensive measures from a few of the 12 animals he has learned. For more information on XingYi grappling tactics check out my channel. *note- most of the techniques in this video come directly from XingYi , )aside from the occasional roundhouse kicks and sidekicks. THE LAST TWO MINS OF THE CLIP DISPLAY RAW XINGYI AT ITS BEST. XINGYI IS A COMPLETE MARTIAL ART

Through experimentation and constantly trying new things, you can really become a true master. I may never reach the level of master, but iam thankful that I have a body that is healthy enough to even practice in the first place! I love martial arts and everything it does for the human race!


Sanshou XingYi Quan:

Basically a combination of XingYiquan, Sanda, and tactics(inspiration) from a plethora of many other arts including dumog, wing chun, Boxing, krav maga and a bit of jujitsu


you dont beleive these applications work? WEll go to this video and you will see some of them during live sparring.

NOTE- Every time I spar, I try to use different strategies. So, that I why I look slightly different in the way I fight in all of my videos. Iam constantly changing my style and experimenting. My grappling skills are getting better and better, and thats what I really need to work on now.

I'm in Louisville in school, but my group back home does mostly Taijiquan (Yang and Guang Ping Yang style) over at Centennial Park in the mornings and evenings at the pavilion by the big train. The teacher's name is Brian Wilson. He is looking to get a Hsing Yi group going.

@durty1calhoun thats cool. Not many HsingI guys around nashville. its a rare style for many people. Its one of the most famous, yet unfamous arts their art. Would be nice to see more people practice it

[tristienm]

Great effort at finally modernizing this style. I'm curious as to why you don't use some of the more forceful pushes xingyi users typically use to break grappling attempts though. When I spar (vs MMA stylists, who don't know I use xingyiquan, baguazhang, and taijiquan with my boxing and wrestling), I find it easy to break clinches with xingyi's forceful forward pushes.

[randyds5]

@tristienm thanks for the kind words. And the reason I didnt break the clinch, is because I wanted to work on my offensive clinch game. I could have broken out of the clinch anytime I wanted, I just chose not to. Just messing around with different tactics

Just a thought that popped into my head: When you got his head down, i.e. at 2.30, did you ever think to drive or even run him backwards (possibly while repeatedly kneeing him), thus keeping him constantly off balance, and open to all attacks? Of course, if you got his head locked in, you can always sit straight down on the ground, and flip him over, and then ground and pound etc.

[randyds5]

@piaten A martial art technique has litterally hundreds of variations and possiblities, when I spar I like to experiment and try new things. Then when we go "all out" i use only what I know works. thanks for the input

[bushidolovecock]

Damn This should be linked to your other video on grappling, it shows the escapes actually working on an unwilling oponent. It shows the techniques not as being so pretty and being completely real.

[36stylesofdanga]

Yes that's right, now I see you do that "break opponents attack and attack at the same time yourself" thing I meant. You have more sensitivity etc.

It's funny though, you said you changed your training by adding more sanshou etc., but for me it looks even more xingyi now xD You use xing yi movements in a sparring more naturally and more in a proper distance etc. now IMO, even though I'm not an expert I think it's a good achievement cause it seems pretty rare. Keep up the good work :)

[tangshihlin]

I daresay that you have the ideal attitude for a martial artist of any art. As far as I can see, you have tamed your ego. Namaste.

[Larxii]

Maybe I should look into this. In fights I always do the leg check he's doing when backing out and tend to move my arms in a similar way. Seems more natural of a style to me.

[NorthernVictory]

Randy if I may ask who did you learn Xing Yi Quan from?

Take care buddy.

[randyds5]

@PinoyBoy702 thanks my friend. I used to study northen shaolin and northern mantis as well. I really like mantis and still occassionally practice it. Sure, ill check out your vids some time
