He shared with me his vision to create not only online courses, but an online Academy. I was excited by this vision and shared how I could use my filmmaking and inter-web skillz to make it happen.

Breath taking!When you talk about balance/flow/rhythm/continuity ease of flow from one movement to the other.(Maybe I'm overthinking )But everything from start to finish.Still the final sections for me is what I really need work on so was so happy to see it done correctly.Slowly, for me to begin to grasp. I was planning to go back to the lessons to relearn but I'm thinking this video is everything I need to hopefully make my taji sword form as smooth elegant flowing and solid like Master Gu's.I'm Inspired.This video definitely saved..to rewatch and learn.🤞Thank You for sharing..Saw the "trailer" of your movie coming out soon!Loved it!Hope you do it for DVD'S , for who haven't been been able to join the premiere..would love to purchase..Much Love always ..God Bless Always and thank you.🙏
This guy just reminded me how awesome planet earth is ..... thousands of years of discipline still blessing our lives today.....what true elegance for the art of movement itself
As Sifu has aged his swordsmanship has tempered, the visual spectacle replaced with refined pure natural swordsmanship, nothing moving independently ,everything pure. Finally, this is not a taiji sword form, it is taiji sword. Respect.
Quite mesmerizing to watch. I've been searching for the answers that I've failed to find for a decade. How to overcome deep depression, daily high stress, how to deal with external negativity directed towards you.... Ive tried everything i could think of...nothing worked. Until i listened to a progressive rock music where there was a segment of bruce lee saying " be water my friend". It stuck with me, and through him, i found Daoism. The wisdom presented is incredible, and it translates incredibly well to even modern life. Some concepts are very hard to grasp, especially for ESL, but through masters Gu, ive understood them better. China is such an amazing place with incredible history. I hope ill have the chance to see it in my lifetime. Thank yo for this wonderful video. Much love from Europe.
Thanks for sharing George. Master Gu is a delight to watch. The entire choreography from start to finish was a gentle flow of a spiritual healing process in sword skill . The background drop & music truly enhanced the beauty of this dedicated performance 🙏❤️Amituofo
The music was beautiful. I liked seeing Master Gu's demonstration with the people around the temple. My favorite was the closing, very dramatic, really beautiful.
What beauty of motion, the music made it dynamic and peaceful all at the same time. His fluidity of motion made believe it was at one with nature and the flow of water. Wow....Just Wow.
By George, you have done it again! Absolutely Brilliant! Inspiring! With the snow, it looks magical ! I have replayed it a number of times. Master Gu is in his element! Wow !!
Fantastic demonstration Sifu Gu, I miss you and your energy and it warms my heart to see you are doing well. Take care of him George, I hope things are doing better for you and your financial situation. Xie Xie, Jian
Iam more into yoga but each time I watch a movie or video about those Chinese masters and those wudang style location IAM totally in tears ...can't explain why...maybe I should just go there❤
He's breathing as normally as it was when he finished the last stance, you won't tell that it was after a whole set of sword dance. That's not a sword he was holding, that's just a part of his spirit.
Incredible! George, I have been meaning to ask, what is your prefered stock music site where you get all the awesome music for the Master Gu and WTWA soundtracks?
紫霄宫, many good memories there ❤ We were there in the evening for a training in the building at the top of the Monk's quarters, a clear starry night. I walked outside with a beautiful gal I loved, and we saw what was most certainly a UFO. . . something that moved across the sky in horizontal and vertical lines, much too quickly to be anything known-to-laypeople technology. 一路平安
Incredible. Thank you for sharing. May I ask what Form is this? The beginning resembles a routine my mom use to do. She learned from a Master from China 40 years ago.
I can see elements of TT Liang's form there. Master Gui's arrangement is more embellished, and I suspect it is closer to the original. Ray Hayward told me it tells a story based on an ancient Indian sutra. Does anyone know if that is true and what the sutra is?

You're probably thinking of Falun Gong; which we consider to be a [redacted] of western funded [redacted] As long as Gu and his troop of clowns behave they have nothing to fear from us in the Ministry/wider capital. As with the former occupants of the mountain, if they do otherwise - they know what will happen. Show President XI the proper respect and none need have an issue.

Beautiful 🙏
Master Gu's graceful moves, the snow capped environment, and the music -- all while daily life is going on around him. Beautiful!
I would dub it the " waterfowl dance" for it is very smooth and graceful. But I'm sure it already has a name in Chinese culture.
I liked the entire sequence. The entire sequence was my favorite ☯️ This brought tears to my eyes 🙏

Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad this resonated with you 🌿💟
He looks peaceful, graceful and meditative! I felt the heart of China and their past...
The position of the deadly sword, the body's stability, and the constant smooth motion are truly remarkable!!!
My heart is in Wudang. May it ever be so.

He's breathing as normally as it was when he finished the last stance, you won't tell that it was after a whole set of sword dance. That's not a sword he was holding, that's just a part of his spirit.
Beautiful work!
Thank you! Cheers!
May master Gu guide me.🙏
amazing
Currently learning this form. As usual with slight differences owing to the ‘family’ of tai chi but certainly recognise most of those moves.
How beautiful!
Thank you! 😊
@@George-Thompson You are so welcome.
Magnificent
What is the name of the song, please? Thanks
Flowing easily
This master presents the look of spiritual world of ancient Chinese
Incredible! George, I have been meaning to ask, what is your prefered stock music site where you get all the awesome music for the Master Gu and WTWA soundtracks?

Sounds amazing, thank you for sharing this 🫶🏼
What inspires each different move, direction, is it being in the flow?
太帥太漂亮太感動了😭🙏
❤❤❤!such a stunning art SHIFU show us
The song is so spellbinding. What is the name of it? The music along with his sword dancing reminds me of Immortals flying
Incredible. Thank you for sharing. May I ask what Form is this? The beginning resembles a routine my mom use to do. She learned from a Master from China 40 years ago.
Sanfeng Taichi Sword 64 Forms
非常漂亮!
The footwork, balance and shifting weight tho 🌊
☯️🙏🏼
I'm sure that energy ball is having as much fun as he is, lol.
I can see elements of TT Liang's form there. Master Gui's arrangement is more embellished, and I suspect it is closer to the original. Ray Hayward told me it tells a story based on an ancient Indian sutra. Does anyone know if that is true and what the sutra is?
❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 beautiful ❤❤ thank uuuuuuuu
🙏🏼💟🤗
Вижу первый раз
Дай Бог человеку
здоровья.
❤❤❤❤❤❤Just wonderful 😮😮😮😮🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I was under the impression that Qi Gong was quite under fire in the China. Is this not so?
If so. Do be careful. I have no doubt you and master Gu know what you are doing.
I pray for your safety.
I believe Christians and Taoist have much the share, and much to learn from each other.
You're probably thinking of Falun Gong; which we consider to be a [redacted] of western funded [redacted]
As long as Gu and his troop of clowns behave they have nothing to fear from us in the Ministry/wider capital. As with the former occupants of the mountain, if they do otherwise - they know what will happen. Show President XI the proper respect and none need have an issue.
Love this ! What kind of sword is that?
The Tai Chi was breathtaking and didn't need the mention of snow in the title imo
Great video - next time show all of your sifu's leg-/footwork!
Watched it at 2x, he slayed his enemies valiantly 💯
haha 🙏
Музыка приятная 🤔🐧🔝
🤔 So, energy allows one to control it... as long as one knows where energy wants one to go?
