  • give me a break! our chinese kung fu is spoiled everywhere on youtube. that's fighting stance? did you ever fight? all chinese style share the same fighting stance? your stance is totally open, your guard has no room to parry, your fist is too low.

    if you want to cheat ppl, pl cheat yourself first. this is not kung fu, not even a tiny.

  • lol

see all

  • No Offense but is this really wat u teach

  • LMAO "expert village" my ass

  • i have trained in pure shoalin kung fu for quite some time this man is a disgrace to kung fu

  • This stance really is a guard. There really seems to be no feasible way of attacking that wouldn't just be for tournament tap points. The hands are jammed up next to you (already a danger in and of itself), so you can't fire off a punch very well or any other hand technique. You might be able to get off a back fist - except that your hips are already turned forward, so you'll have no power. What do you plan to do, wimpily kick your opponent into submission?

  • ok cool but they dont just seem stronger - they ARE stronger.

  • groin exposed lol. newbs would get their nuts kicked in.

  • karate is cool - look @ lyoto machida

  • im comparing wing tsun with muay thai. i do mma and the basis is muay thai + jujitsu. thats all.

  • if i know so

    muay thai is overrated

    and u cant really compare it to kung fu as one style considering ot consists of many styles and stances

    and if u knew a damn thing about fighting u would have also have known its the fighter not the style
