  • WuDanG clan aint nuthin to fuk wit! :p

  • The Zhang Sanfeng myth of the snake and crane is the story of taiji, allegedly. Wing chun as dragon877 said was created by buddhist nun Ng Mui who in turn taught Yim Wing Chun, a woman who had a one year to study and defeat a bandit. If she lost she would have to marry the bandit, needless to say she won.

  • @ex0duzz fuck, you beat me to it. i strictly clicked on this video so i could comment wudang clan aint nothin to fuck wit

  • that english translation isnt correct

    the system is form the folded system of pi in 0

    the tow paly system there are other systems that arent tow play and thus cna be less or diffrent than the formal tia chi system of energies matter good and evil .

    the balkc and white are form angles in system thye are both hard and soft ,not oene hard one soft ,this is the distrcutive discription or the light system in darkness or war system there are others

  • The suppleness of the Snake. The agility of the Monkey. The grace of the Crane. The power of the Tiger. The spirit of the Dragon. The stories of the origins of these arts are, IMO, allegorical. The story of wing chun teaches us that soft overcomes hard. The story of Chang San Feng viewing the battle between a snake and a crane teaches us that grace and suppleness is how we avoid injury. The reality is they developed over generations through trial and error.

  • Master Wang is so calm when he's defending against that boxer. There's no aggression on his face. Pretty interesting stuff.

  • There is two stories of the beginning of Tai Chi. First one,Zhang San Feng,a great Student of Shaolin,graduated,went back to the original Taoist ways he practiced before and was inspired by the snake/crane fight as well as Taoism to create Wudangquan/Taijiquan.Second, Great general Chen Wang Ting studied some war manuals as well as studied some Shaolin Kung Fu near his village and created Chen Taijiquan(I believe originally called Chen Cannon Fist)

  • Well...either way,which ever story you believe,Wing Chun descended from Shaolin. There is your theory...and the other theory,about Yim wing chun learning kung fu from Ng Mui,a great Shaolin Grandmistress.

  • Wing chun wasn't created by yip man nor created by nun or a women forced into marriage..

    The real history: It was past down from monks from the shaolin temples into theatre troupes who perform on cruising red boats in southern China during the late Qing dynasty times, it was all a cover up and used for a potential uprising against the government, the TaiPing Rebellion.

    Thus the art was called "Red Boat Wing Chun" in its earliest days.

  • but then that can be another made up sotry wing chun had a histroy of usage by the anti qing rebels the rebels only had a few months to learn how to fight so wing chun was based on practicality rather than skill over a long period of time the sotry of the woman marrying a warlord could just be 1 of teh stories made up to confuse the qing government

  • Legend has it (legend, perhaps not fact), that a woman was being forced to wed a man she did not like. He said that if she defeated him in a fight, he would drop his proposal. She created Wing Chun with a nun (or something like that) and beat the suitor. It is also said that her husband named fighting style after her.
