do you happen to know where I may be able to learn bak fu pai? otherwise known as white tiger kung fu?
Many people don't know that Master Huang, besides being a high-level martial artist, is an amazing bone-setter (what Westerners might call a chiropractor, but working from an ancient and more holistic paradigm) whose skills are in great demand in China and Taiwan. He has several clinics and many students in Taiwan and on the mainland. I had a 30-year-old ankle injury from break-falling, plus incipient arthritis in my right hip, that he cured completely in two short visits to his Taipei clinic in early January. It is now early April and there has been no recurrence of pain in either place in all this time. On top of that, Master Huang is gracious, friendly and approachable. He earned a Master's Degree in environmental science in the US. He also owns his own beef noodle restaurant (a Taiwanese specialty), where he invited my daughter and I to a delicious dinner. I cannot say enough good things about this gentleman. He is the real deal.
I have studyed Kung Fu for over 42 years and just learned something new! 😀
I used these when I practiced Goju Ryu. It definitely helps with centering while doing Kakie. I will have to try this with Taijichuan.
Great page martial man. Been watching your videos for years.
This is great advice. I like to stand on bricks to achieve this practice. On 2+ bricks your grounding really stretches deep to compensate actually increasing my jing when standing on them because my root is not normally held quite so heavy/deep. I am definitely getting a pair of these sandals.
Excellent idea. Thank you!
Martial Man Thanks for your amazing eye opening vids. There is so much to learn about what we can do and how to use it... All the best stay safe !
Fascinating! Ty sensei 🙏
Another quality video from a clearly deeply skilled master.
🙏🏿Thanks for sharing🤯 . . .this video makes clearer the principle of "mind not force"🧠 . . . we were taught "Tai Chi is Balance---Do not rush" ☯️ Grandmaster Nganga Tolo Naa (student of Grandmaster Hou Chi Kwang) ☯️
Very interesting
Thks a lot and take care !
Nice very interesting!
I asked my self since a while whats the thing with those japanese sandals.
The Heros of 'Samurai champloo'(manga / comic) always wear those on his Travels.
Good work ! Thanx and best greetings from Saxony / Germany!
Be like water my friends! 😘
After watching this video, I need to find myself some Japanese sandals and give it a try! Thank you for sharing. It's good to know that you are safe.
I have one, and I have another one, I even buy one for my partner lol!!
I'm living in TAILAM TAIOAN , Ono of the best Wooden sandal( Chhàkia̍h) are made, I want to share this Taioan treasure to you!!
Mail me if I can help!
Great!👍
Hello. You should interview to Mark Rasmus in Thailand. He teaches internal stuff about Wing Chun and Tai Chi. You must see his youtube channel, he is very skilled. Greetings from Argentina and thank you. Your channel is awesome.
I am going to have to find some of those sandals! Just imagine, you work out with those on and get use to them. Then put your regular shoes on, it will be amazing 😀. It would be like learning the 3 sectional staff first then learn the solid staff. 👍
Sifu Jin-Bin Huang is a good guy and a very, very high level Kong fu master. But there similar sandals but Chinese Kong Fu ones. Where the bottom of the sandal is round vertically from both sides than the Japanese ones flat horizontally from the front and back. Some Wing Chun practitioners, we do the Sui Nim Tau standing on one leg on the Chinese sandal. Those Chinese sandals are very rare these days. But it's good to see how masters outside of China adapted.
I've also done this practice by standing on cans/bricks/wood. You can do this for the plum blossom steps.
he taught some interesting ways to do taichi, one was like standing medtation, the was a dynamic compression taichi, he created his own tai chi forms out of different styles and made his own moves, we did push hands and 4 corners. he used to always joke" if you see people in the park doing taichi tell them there do it to fast.😄😄😄. he also taught 7 star kung fu and had a 120 pound quan do and two climbing ropes one vertical and horizontal. plum flower poles with 10 lb sandbags were tough.
Clever idea.
you solved the secret of spiritual development and inner training.... gl next life bro
This is a legit way to train the "centered feeling". I 've use Wooden sandal( Chhàkia̍h) in Taioanese/ to help me do martial-art, I wear them in my video.

Hello thank you for the video! This training is for ming he or tai chi ? :)
helloworld ! You can use it for both White Crane and Taiji. Have fun 👍
One of my favorite practice in wing chun was Siu Nim tao practice standing on two rattan sticks under the feet... Peace.
Interesting! I will try that...
It's an old practice pass me by my Shifu. The difficult one is practice Snt on sticks standing on one leg... Best regard.
Yes that would be dope 😅
neat !
Nice video
horacio martial art thanks 👍
Wow, he says that he should keep his centerline, but then he is actually leaning forward a lot when he "fajin". ...I think he looks skilled, but I always have my doubts when someone say something but does differently... :/
exactly why is he leaning forward during his push
@Shayne The problem, IMO, is not what you do in a martial perspective. The problem here is honesty.
Zhongding ("centre stable"), as I understand it, is not about physically conforming to a centreline.
(Shifu Huang says "centreline" for convenience in the video, but usually Tai Chi teachers don't use that term.)
Rather, the "line" is a virtual connection from the earth, through your foot, up your body, out your head, then to the sky, like the string holding a puppet up.
Settling your body around this connection as the "origin", you move or stand in such a way that any disturbance in one part of the body is fluidly cancelled out by another subtle shift elsewhere. The Yin and Yang in constant balance.
In this way, you don't have to keep perfectly "upright" to remain stable.
In fact, if you try to remain perfectly upright while facing incoming force, you'd end up going rigid, which is the opposite of the other principle Master Huang talks about in this video: Song, which can be roughly understood as "relaxed but not collapsed". Song is itself necessary to have the above-mentioned fluid cancelling out of disturbance.
How far a Tai Chi practitioner can take this depends on his skill level.
As you can see from the video, Shifu Huang is able to Fa Jin without himself getting shifted from his position by the rebound or momentum.
That stability is what demonstrates his Zhongding, not whether he's standing upright.
For an even higher level demonstration,
check out the video "Yang Style Taiji Quan | Adam Mizner Revisited (Part 2) | Season 2 Episode 13" , also posted by THE MARTIAL MAN.
From the 16 min mark onwards, Shifu Adam Mizner talks about Zhongding (specifically clarifying that it's not the same as Centreline), and then demonstrates it while being seated, leaned back and even inclined atop a low wall.
@@tranquil_dude He clearly speaks about physical alignment in the beginning. In TJQ you should understand balance and alignment in a most physical sense. All of that mystical qi mumbo jumbo ain't worth much if you haven't built up a strong foundation first.
@@cynicalnutcase4937 You're right that correct posture is an important foundation to have. However, the problem with simply thinking "I must adhere to centreline etc" is that this causes the student to easily go rigid, thus undermining his own stability and smoothness of movement, and even his own balance.
Thus the correctness of posture must be combined with Song ("relaxed but not collapsed") as well as a few other qualities which are all important foundations to be trained in Taiji.
Try this: close your eyes and stand on one leg. Then do whatever elaborate martial arts forms you wish (e.g simultaneously kick, dodge, ward off etc), but keep your eyes closed and stand on one leg all the time.
What are the qualities that keep you balanced and "well aligned", preventing you from toppling or cramping? Is it simply adherence to a centreline (or any line, for that matter) ?
I've not talked about qi yet. That is a different but related aspect of Taiji, and just as foundational. It's not "mumbo jumbo". In the context of Taiji, qi is what you can feel (a tingly, warm, expansive and invigorating feeling) when you relax and focus your intention in a certain way, to a certain extent. My own hypothesis is that it's due to previously suppressed blood flow, nerve signals and metabolism being released and allowed to flow optimally due to the relaxation and focused intent. Anyways, what matters is the practice, not the exposition.
This physiological change (as well as enhanced bodily awareness that comes with it) called "qi" is vital to how Taiji works and is thus also foundational.
Either way, if a "Taiji" Shifu keeps telling his students to simply focus on "correct posture" without the other qualities (such as Song and Qi flow), then sorry to say, he's not teaching them the complete "strong foundations" for Taiji. He's just teaching them a series of postures. One might practice like this for decades and never actually "get" Taiji.
ok where can i get these sandals? lol

And that's why you should never mess with any Japanese ladies! ;)
Genius
That’s interesting. Sinking while applying peng, vs getting the ground reaction force “bounce” like Chen Taiji does. Looks a bit faster and less telegraphed then the Chen method, but maybe less powerful. The thread about this video on Rum soaked fist has led to some interesting discussion.
He leaned forward ...a lot when he is doing FaJin . I don't know . However is interesting !
Are the 2 Huangs related ?
No, they're not related.
Met him a few times in 228, That time Zheng Xianqi was still there, also Mr Shen and some other guys. Nice people, good at playing Pushhands. But if you don’t play according to their rules their stuff doesn’t work as seen on the videos. It’s good and nice stuff, but it gives strangers to that sort of playing a false impression in what they are doing and what is realistic.
Well, you didn’t get my point. It’s about the impression they give, and if you don’t comply to their playing those effects won’t appear. And it’s because of the effects that appear that people get a wrong understanding of the art.
This is also not to say they are not good. They play their game very well. When I did fixed step pushing with them I was more controlled by them than I could do to them. But when they applied Fajin nothing really noteworthy happend. Playing freely, not sparring, just free pushing, they are simply ok, not special.
I never pushed with Adam Mizner, though I really would like to do some free play, but from my experience with other people from the Huang Line I’m quite sure there is not that power and controlling possible which is somehow suggested through their videos. Good stuff, no doubt, but not that special.
Why is it, none of these techniques are ever demonstrated in an actual fight with positive results? 🤔 If the methods you push people to give you money to learn were legit I would think you'd jump at every chance to make the unbelievers look stupid and prove everyone wrong on a global scale. 🤷🏼♂️
Taiji is for fighting in an alley with no room to move around. Like wing Chun or boxers going toe to toe

Also Tai Chi was created by Daoists and their philosophy and culture is focusing strongly on being humble. Doesn't breed the kind of mind running around and bragging.
A lot of the really skilled ones keep their mouth shut about it, also because when you run around bragging it can get you into big trouble. Tai Chi can be effective, but of course it will not make you super human or wield magic power(no martial art does).
So multiple attackers especially with some weapons who are pissed because of your attitude are really bad for longevity.
I think a lot of critics get confused about the chi talk. But it is just metaphors that derive from their way of making sense of the world. They describe their perceptions in familiar terms that have meaning to them because of their cultural upbringing and worldview.
It is just a way to name the effects they perceive when they practice correctly.
Pure fantasy
lol holy Bullshido
This is not expanding! This is pushing wuth a skilkfull sense of balance.
Balance and expansion are inclusive with each other...
Jose Martins what does expanding mean to you? Pushing does not use contraction as far as I'm aware.
Expanding is elongation (not stretching)! This is very difficult as it can not be done, just allowed to happen (guided by the mind).
this tai guy is clearly not on the same level as the thai guy
Nice dance moves.
Wot a load of bollocks. Hahah train in flip flops . Hahahaha
