Nice one will, very interesting. More!
nice , thank you for sharing this
Very interesting. Many thanks :)
Oh this is amazing to find. I’m doing some family history research and chasing any clues about what my late father told me. I know that I am related to a kung fu master who lived in Yantai - Dad’s uncle, I believe..?? Dad remembers him pounding his hand into a barrel full of ballbearings to harden his hands but he did this while he sat outside his shop. I believe I must be related to one of the men you’re talking about. Dad died in 2019. We escaped the Japanese in 1947; my grandparents, my uncle, and my father. I was born much later in 1980, but I live a very Northern Chinese life still and observe a lot of my cultural ways of being. My grandfather, Chia Chien Tang, was the figure people would go to in Yantai to resolve their disputes, somewhat like a community magistrate. Perhaps your sifu or someone connected to your school knows of him.
That’s some interesting family history! Well that sort of training was/is pretty common in China, and in Yantai a lot of people do it, so its not necessarily connected
@@MonkeyStealsPeach Well the thing is.. my paternal family tree is one of only two family lines in that original village.
@@chiamusics Yantai is a city though, with several million inhabitants…..
What about the body conditioning skills that are considered the basics before throwing punches or receiving blows!!? Anybody teach these nowadays?
yes, its called Pai Da Gong
Great video man, keep it up!
Good afternoon. Congrats for your amazing research. I am very excited to see all the playlist. Can I ask you a favor? Please, did you find a mantis master named Wuang Lon Tchin or could be Wang Rong Yin. Who teach a Hua Ming Praying Mantis?
Thanks a lot.
Success and good vibration from Brazil
Sorry I’ve never heard of either the teacher or the style
