    Now this, this is traditional Han Chinese Wrestling - it's different from the modern day Shuai Jiao we see today, because modern day shuai jiao is largely manchu/mongol. Shanxi style Shuai Jiao comes from the sportive wrestling during the Qin, Han and Tang Dynasties - Jiaodi and Jiaoli, the action of ''horn-butting''.

      Yes, Shanxi style is more Han-style. The traditional Han wrestling is either topless or with the belt on.

      I have Japanese ancestory so i really like Judo, but i cannot deny the superiority of this kind of style for self defense. Usually chinese martial arts shown on the internet are the McDojo types, but there are many chinese combat styles that are as valid as traditional karate, judo, jiu jitsu, etc

    Great work again. I think in the late Qin dynasty, It's not hard to find a grappler in China at the level of Jigoro Kano or a western wrestler like farmer burns. I think Shuai Jiao is a legitimate original martial art just based on the abundance of unique techniques and applications.

      It is interesting how different Eastern Asian bodies are from Western.
      They had not our criteria for body style and also a different life science
      Their nutrition is based on fat and calories rather than proteins.
      Stronger means bigger for those Asians until the individual prove of the opposite.
      On the other hand they learn more by learning by doing and that's their recipe of success.
      Japan however began to study and imitate successful western techniques and practiced them to death.
      The colossus China was the last in the row because of communism.
      But they began with the last: "doping", chemicals and drugs. Maybe even this was not their fault as you remember junkies and opium war.
      China entered the West first via California (Canada) and then Honkong (Hip Man, Bruce Lee etc.). I wonder if it was right to call any fighting styles that came from China calling Kung-fu.?
      Korea is the first country to introduce Bodybuilding to a higher standard in East Asia; China is advanced in olympic weight lifting for people. Japanese judokas began olympic snatch and HIT - Bodybuilding.
      However at the end in fighting the practice and routine will survive all tricks and techniques, that can be copied immediately today.

      The German SS had educated the Lama Tibet in war practice and military education. However the lamas had their own (secret) martial arts tradition that spread out to different Mongolian countries (e.g. Nepal). UNESCO now tries to conserve original martial culture heritage, according to special conditions. From there might come some interesting ideas. (The same in strength sport, where Scotland contributed a lot by its highland games.)
      Of course at the end they want the "ultimate fight", "the truth" - MMA.
      However there is an advantage to have learned one style properly to a certain higher level, to have more confidence in your own advantage. Jon Bluming began honestly with a construction to begin directly and seriously with MMA, Bruce Lee was an artist of body expression.

    The event of this type of Wrestling is called The sheep scratching competition (挠羊赛) ,and the origin of this holiday is somewhat contradictory, but the vast majority of the sources I saw claim that it originated in the song dynasty when a subordinate soldier of Yuei Fei, angry and sad about his death, went to his hometown (shanxi) and I teach wrestling and fight techniques.
    The great thing about Shanxi style is that it is literally the Nogi version of Shuai Jiao.

      It's because there are many variations that can lead to death.
      What folks don't realize is traditional martial arts forms are supposed to be full of grappling.
      For example the throw at 2:49
      It's essentially more about pulling the head then lifting the leg but depending on angle and height that person will land flat on their head.
      Thus when it was codified as a sport they chose the safest versions of those throwing concepts.
      The rest were left for the closed door or combat department.
      My Shuai Jiao instructor in Chicago was who kung fu instructors would come to to get that closed door training.
      So I'm just repeating from the horses mouth in way because I wasn't a kung fu guy.
      I'm a Silat and Kali guy. Fun fact that concept of head pulling is called putar kapala and from experience the one you can see online is nothing compared to the versions that can have you in front of a judge.
      Anyway
      When my training ended in those I went to a kung fu school so I could kickbox and GM Tsai sent me to the praying mantis school to meet the Tai Chi instructor.
      Personally I think I was just a training dummy because I'm ambidextrous but I do love Shuai Jiao.
      But take it with a grain of salt because I'm biased. 😊

    This is a provincial wrestling competition called the Náoyáng Festival"/“挠羊赛” held in/near Xīnzhōu city/ 忻州, in Shānxī province/山西.
    Shanxi borders Inner Mongolia to the north.
    Shanxi wrestling also called “挠羊”摔跤/Náo yáng shuāijiāo.
    挠羊/ Náoyáng in Shanxi colloquially means to lift aloft a sheep.
    In the last competition in May 2023, the winner got RMB 3,000 as prize and the title “挠羊汉” or Sheep-raising man."
    Originally the winner got a live sheep hence the name of the competition and the white sheep statue in the background. In more local competitions the winner still gets a live sheep. :-)

    Thanks Chadi. This is another example of why I continue my study of Chinese boxing. There is a rich diversity in martial arts there and the study of techniques is deep. You may look into the throws of Pa Kua Chang if you can find some good examples to share with your viewers. They tend to have very flowery names for their techniques, this to obfuscate their real intention. Techniques such as "Monkey out of cave." "Green Dragon spits out tongue." "Phoenix rising from the ashes". Wouldn't give you a clue how the form is used, until your teacher demonstrates. Fortunately today most teachers are far more open with their knowledge. Train for life.
    Thanks again for sharing with us.

    Someone was saying that traditional wushu and Taiji became more popular than shuaijiao in mid to late Qing dynasty is that the so called wushu masters had theories or “stories” that can connect their fighting styles to Tao philosophy and qi. The Qing elites and royal families loved those stories. ( they had too much time and money). On the contrary, shuaijiao masters could not come up with those stories. It is sad that after Qing dynasty, many shuaijiao masters became street performers, but many Wushu masters continued to enjoy their fame and wealth.

    Another Awesome video from Mr. Chadi. I always enjoy seeing the similarities and differences between Chinese and Japanese approaches to martial techniques.
    @Chadi, I have a question for you. Im looking for a reference book or books for Japanese grappling techniques.
    Im interested in all forms of Japanese and Okinawan grappling, but I have a particular interest in Judo, Aikido, Jujutsu, and Sumo/Sumai. Im wondering if you have any recommendations. As to my preference, I would probably say the more techniques the better. But I would also like books that have a sort of cohesive progression of techniques in the book, to give it a sort of narrative.
    I would also be interested in any books on Chinese and surrounding area's grappling. Books on Chin Na, Shuai Jiao etc. And any books covering indigenous grappling styles from around the world. If youve got anything you think would be worth taking a look at, I would greatly appreciate you informing me.
    Cheers from Indiana :)

Its a little different in that you lose the match if any part of your body other than your feet touch the mat. In that regard its a lot like sumo, but they use leg attacks like shuai jiao or american folkstyle.

    To conclude this nonsense question why wrestlers have biceps and judokas and olympic weightlifters less is that they use these muscles sometimes without explosive power when they are fighting. This is in the case that they have to form the grip around the body of the opponent to lift him while judoka has his grip in the gi where he can pull as explosively as an Olympic lifter in snatch.
    In judo randori as well as in boxing sparring other muscles are strengthened.
    The wrestlers work with fireman grip. If the opponent is too far it is no more possible to reach the other hand for the tight grip. That's the reason for the weight limit under 130 kg
    The olympic amateur sports judo, wrestling and weight lifting must work together.
