      No bad arts just bad practitioners...comments trashing a martial art because you may not understand how to apply it is a sign of the ignorance of the commentator...tai chi is probably not the most practical unarmed self defense for modern times as it was created as an answer for fighting styles of its day in history but that certainly doesn’t mean that it doesn’t hold concepts and maybe even specific techniques that can be useful today...I believe thereby is a Shaolin monk whipping ass in the MMA world....tell him his art is useless

    I´m 50 years old, so potentially no match for young fighters. Still doing Boxing and Kickboxing, had some 50 fights in the 90s and some 1000s sparring rounds with or against fighters from any kind of style. Even with beginners i never saw a boxer throwing one straight left, leaving enough time and space to use a technique like shown in the video. It is obvious that any! fighter would adopt a superior system - but nobody in MMA-professional-fighting is using it, for the simple that it doesn´t work. It´s pretty hard to fight skilled Boxers even when you are a good (low)kicker, their punching-frequency and footwork is impressive and has proven it worth. I´ve never found a single video on YT showing a real fight in which this slapping and pushing works fine - so it will be hard to convince me.

      I think Tai Chi is really supposed to look more like boxing... like this guy (fast forward over the BS at the beginning). You can check out other videos of his students training, and it just looks like a boxing gym-- to me, the "tai chi" aspect is just the focus of training, staying loose to be quick, and then, adding in training what to do when the gloves are touching, tricks to move the opponents hands away, or control the hands and set up the knock out. But nobody in America practices it that way...

      While I agree, this video is just as bad in the opposite direction.
      How does Tai Chi stack up against Boxing?
      Tai Chi vs Boxing
      Tai Chi is the ultimate martial art.
      This sounds like someone out to prove something not training and it immediately gives false impressions.
      Also, while it is commonly accepted that “no right move” truly exists (I.e you have to move as you would in that situation, being natural is key and there is always options) some moves are better, easier or more efficient then others.
      A lot of movements in Tai Chi would (for a majority of people) be stripped away in favour of more direct and forceful moves or styles.
      It’s also key to note that many such “ancient styles” have replaced an overwhelming amount of sparring with rote learning and essentially shadow boxing.
      Those styles were effective mostly because the user was honed and improved through copious amounts of sparring.

    I'm not one to bash another style because anyone with exceptional skill and understanding can make any style work but on this video. A jab in boxing is used to distract or set up another blow or movement. A professional boxers jab like Ali's would not be able to slip like this without being caught by another left hook or straight right of uppercut. Normally slipping a jab could be dangerous as the boxer could be setting you up for a hard blow.

    For all those that laugh at these beginner explanations, it might be interesting to know that Tai chi was originally only taught to those who had mastered all the other levels of kung fu. It wasn't taught to the public. It was the most advanced form of kung Fu. That slap to the solar plexus is nasty enough, but if he misses it can break a rib. And the opponent has to setup all over again. Also, beginners take much more shallow steps. Only the most advanced take deep steps and elongated forms. And btw, he did mention fast twitch muscle use, which needs to specifically developed intentionally. Most people will not get there. Especially if a little older. But even those only interested in the health aspect of tai chi will develop muscle memory and if put into a situation ... That will kick in and they will gate much better. You may, or may not recall that lateral movement in Olympic boxing was brought to the ring by the American boxing team in the 1980s , and they dominated.

So yes it is right. Also when he was doing an introductory, he did tai chi, because and then did it full speed. Then he did it to his helper and took her down.

      TaiChi would dominate a lot of pro boxers today. But only the people who practice TaiChi for its main purpose can do this. Someone who practices taichi with the intent to fight with it, might not be the best taichi fighter. But someone who practices TaiChi for flow, with the primary task at hand is flow and well-being, and view fighting as something that's not primary could dominate. These people practice mainly for the flow, but also learn how to use taichi in different scenarios. And muscle isnt necessarily needed to engage in a pro boxer, if you're a master at taichi. If you aren't a master at it, and you still dont grasp the whole concept and how to apply it to fights, then you might need muscle. TaiChi is powerful my friend, much more powerful that what you think😌

      Most real tai chi guys will say that tai chi is about health and wellness, not necessarily fighting. That doesn’t mean that it can’t be used for fighting. You can’t say that tai chi would never work because there are some legit tai chi guys that fight in sanda matches often and use striking and grappling effectively. Pull the sparrow by the tail and part the horses mane are basic tai chi movements and are basically a pull down and throw.
      Cutetiger there are plenty of guys who have dabbled in tai chi that fight in MMA, and some traditionalists that can use their art to full effect. Not discounting bjj, boxing, wrestling, and Muay Thai of course, but taiji is good for us older guys who want an interesting workout that won’t hurt us. You young guns can have all that other stuff.

Once you can achieve his patience ,endurance, focus, self control, and undertake true Shaolin training, then, and only then would I concern myself about your opinions of this man or any Martial Artist.

    I've been practicing shotokan karate in the 80's, Aikido in 80's, then thai and kick boxing, in qi gong since the 90's. I have much respect for tai chi, but a person who practices tai chi and fight with a boxer, will just get destroyed. Tai chi is a form of qi gong. tai chi has some martial roots in it, but in no way gives any capacity to any person to fight boxers. You live in an illusion if you believe the contrary. tai chi could be a complementary practice for a fighter who already is in thai boxing, or boxing, or full contact martial art. tai chi would give you better balance and better understanding of movements, but if you practice tai chi , even for 10 years, and you think you can fight a boxer with it, you are totally in an illusive world. same applies with most wu shu technic and aikido. Practicing tai chi does not prepare your body to get hit, does not teach you how to strike punches, knees elbow and kicks ... through the angle of real fight and self defense, tai chi is just a system of pointless fancy movements for people who live in a dream ... and you could almost say the same thing with most of aikido and kung fu movements, which does not teach you how to kick and punch, and only require that you grabb opponent arms at very precise moments and spots to be effective, which hapen in fancy training but never in real street combat situation or on a ring. Of course it looks good on videos or in movies; indeed practice tai chi for meditation, breathing, get better health, get bette immune system, get in harmony with the universe and follow the law of tao, but avoid it if you think you can fight just with it cause you will get wrecked...consequently this video is total utter bullshit .. ...namaste

Health benefits are a plus. Qi gong to Taijiquan is like push ups and crunches to a boxer. Would you watch a boxer doing push ups and say that's not going to work in a fight? You don't practice Taijiquan for meditation. You meditate, and to be accurate you don't meditate, you simply sit, or stand but that's another post, to improve your skills by quieting the mind. Watch the films of Ali in his prime. His speed comes from his stillness. A simple concept difficult to practice.

      Juaquin Trumpet You’re thinking of bobbing and weaving. The point of B&W is to get out of the way of the strikes without lining yourself up for another which is why boxers often go down, not laterally. If the opponent knows you’re gonna “slip” inside, they can bait you with a flinch then spin your jaw around the back of your head.

      @@aliteralflamingpileofgarba6236 i dont know about a flinch, but boxes call it a faint if thats what you mean. i didnt mean slip inside. i just meant slipping punches. you can slip laterally or utilize angles to get to the side of your opponent and then counter off their punches thrown, and yes thats why my coach always says to fake to one side then go the other way. Ive gotten caught many times cause I became predictable going the same way all the time

      If I was doing normal sparring vs a Boxer I would be throwing kicks, sweeps, palms, elbows, knees, joint manipulation, throws, and takedowns. These are ALL found in Tai Chi but since Boxing is a sport it is limited to punches only! Boxers are amazing and if we sparred using Boxing rules then the Boxer may win! But, for general sparring or fighting, Tai Chi has many, many, many more weapons at it's disposal making it a more complete fighting system!!! :)

      Kung Fu & Tai Chi Center w/ Jake Mace Im not sure what to say but since the video features a tai chi fighter vs a boxer, sure i can see this technique as viable because boxers dont use elbows, on the other hand i dont know how Jake Mace would react using this technique against a fighter of a different style.
      In Jujutsu (Samurai martial art) and Ninjutsu (Ninja martial art) i would use the basic step/dodge but i would make sure that my opponent wouldn't be able to use his arm again (yes that means break it) using my elbow against his elbow while my left arm pushed his wrist, i dont know if i described it well, sorry about that xD.

    I trained in traditional Shotokan / Aikido / Ninpo tai-jutsu since I was 13, hustled 4 different p/t thru HS, rode my bicycle thru rain, sleet or snow to HS, home to prep dinners I NEVER got to eat, then off the the dojo, THEN work afterwards until 11 or midnight, thru rain, sleet or snow & got thru HS on 4-5 hours sleep per night.
    OK, summer was more hours worked & a bit more sleep, but I had to pay for class-tuition, uniforms, tests, weapons, food, dental, medical, contacts, guitar lessons, clothing and bike tires 3+x yearly.
    My HS prom night, I taught / assisted the tail-end of a 90 minute children's class (my warm up), did the 90 minute 6pm class, then rode off to 7-11 to work until 1am, turning down beer sales to my HS classmates.
    Long Island winter snowstorms were RARE: NOT to have a good 2-footer at least once, and I showed up for a 6pm adult class on my 10-speed during a 2-footer, ZERO adults showed in their cars & I got a "private lesson" with my sensei, then he took me out for dinner afterwards . .
    At 16 y/old. as a brown belt, I taught adult classes with several black belts as "students", when my sensei got caught up in traffic, picking up his classmates from the airport.
    So, I guess you can say, I've "been around the block", a few times.
    WHAT you did to this beginner VICTIM: June 14, 2017, (student is a real stretch, because UNLESS he is your brother-in-law & he'll be "back for more freebies", I'd be SHOCKED to see this guy return for more humiliation & exploitation from you), was NOTHING short of mocking his lack of stamina / fitness and self aggrandizing your innate athletic ability.
    Because: THAT is ALL you did, in this video. Which is KIND of like a sociopath.
    Gee, did you "set the stage" by suggesting he down a hefty breakfast, before you did a 40+ minute abdominal-crush routine on him??
    Do YOU have any recollection of your first weeks or month of training??
    Do you give ANY thought to a moderate warm-up, progressing into a feel-out-your-student's agility, before jumping into a stress test?
    I saw an EASY dozen opportunities for YOU to suggest / correct his breathing patterns, where YOU clearly exhaled during an exertion, then smirked & smiled as he held his breath
    during each kick, punch or torsional twist . .
    And that sociopathic SMIRK got even bigger, when he paused to hold down his vomit.
    And you showed complete INDIFFERENCE when he BEGAN to puke.
    Even a gay-boy-lover would hold his head while vomiting, after he'd mouth raped his throat.
    But YOU, Jake . . you made him VOMIT, then gloated & titled the video how "he wanted to fight . . I made him vomit".
    Class fucking act.
    You know what they say??
    "Those that CAN fight, DO".
    I walked away from 3X 3-on-1 fights before I was 11, BEFORE I could start working to pay for Budo instruction, 6 nights weekly.
    "Those that CAN'T fight, teach" . . which is a REAL stretch in YOUR case, since IF you were a half-assed DECENT sifu, you'd have 1 or more successful schools, and a few hundred loyal students.
    But INSTEAD . .
    You flash your psychopath colors & post videos of how athletic you are, and crush any/all potential beginner-students, by monetizing their 1st day attempts.
    NOTE: I said you ARE athletic . . . but attributing any martial SKILL SETS to you would be a REAL fucking stretch.
    Master Ken's Private Parts offers BETTER instruction on YT, than you.

    • @NakMuayify
      @NakMuayify 9 років тому +2

      +Shunga Munga Martial Arts, particularly in the East, are generally divided into two broad categories: External and Internal.
      A few good examples of external Martial Arts is Judo, Sanda Kung Fu, Muay Thai, Chinese Wrestling (Shuai Jiao) etc. The focus of external martial arts is usually geared more towards fighting, but not necessarily so. Competition Wushu (as its called in English) is focused on performance as opposed to actual fighting but it is still an external martial art.
      The ultimate example of internal martial arts its Tai Qi, in which one develops one's own personal abilities. There is of course, combat Tai Qi but its really not the main focus of Tai Chi. Qi Gong is another example.
      In the West we focus almost entirely on external martial arts.
      To generalize, internal martial arts are more focused on health of body and mind whereas external are more focused on affecting someone else's body.
      I'd love to answer any more questions you have regarding the subject.

    • @shungamunga
      @shungamunga 9 років тому +2

      With all respect, I think you have this wrong. The differences between an external art and an internal art are quite simple, at least in theoretically, though not in practice. An external art is wholly dependent on physicality. This is primarily what Rydberg does in these shitty vids of his. Internal arts are a combination of physiology and psychology. Physicality is the low hanging fruit. It's easy to grab onto, sells easily and to the untrained eye looks the part.
      Internal arts are less outwardly dynamic, except when applied in actual situations. We've all heard about the old Tai Chi guy making people fly off his hands like magic. Well, there's no magic just a combination of structure, position, leverage exploiting his opponents intent. And all without relying on physical strength, but internal mechanics, chi, and mind.
      Meditation has huge health benefits. BUt in the arts it's used to calm the mind and lose the ego. Why? Because as in Daoist though, movement can only come from stillness, and stillness comes from sitting, or practicing standing postures. In essence one becomes a better fighter by doing nothing and becoming nothing.
      Everyone says the practice of Tai Chi has health benefits, but if asked how or why most would be stumped. Taijiquan is a fighting art, one of the three brothers, the others being Bagua and Xingyi. Their intent is fighting. Xingyi is the only true combat art of the three, as it was taught to military personal, and taught weapons before empty hand. Xingyi boxers dominated fighting competitions in southern China during the early 20th Century. Though as Robert Smith observed, when the internal aspects are removed it's just bad boxing.
      I practiced Hung Gar for many years. In the beginning it's taught as external, but as one progresses in skill and understanding the internal training replaces the external.
      Wing Chun is an internal art. Bak Mei is an internal art. Mantis is an internal art. Muay Boran, coming from a Buddhist place would have been internal as well. Muay Thai is sport fighting.
      Taijiquan is in purpose and intent a fighting art, but it's effectiveness is compromised with the practice of wuji. The Daoist realized health and longevity though the practice of Taijiquan but the practice was primarily martial not health.
      What Jake the Fake does here has no real health or martial benefit. It is essentially a waste of one's time.

    • @NakMuayify
      @NakMuayify 9 років тому

      Shunga Munga You absolutely nailed it on the head. Thank you for correcting my generalizations. All martial arts have internal and external aspects but most lean one way or another.
      One key objection though with regards to Martial Arts...specifically Taijiquan and Daoists. The old practice was primarily martial but due to iconoclasm and censorship most of the old battlefield Kung Fu has been lost or destroyed. What is left is the health and performance focused arts. The shift was most dramatic during the "barbarian" dynasties due to their taste for exciting performances as opposed to hearings poems and watching regular plays. Also governments made extensive efforts to keep the martial power in the hands of the military. The most modern example that I can think of is Shaolin Temple's relationship with Chinese governments and dynasties.
      And yes, this channel misses the point and is dangerous. Orientalist to the max...what can one expect from Arizona though? :P

This guy's a fraud who'd get murdered by "F" level bantamweights, that movie shit only works in the movies.

      Bullshit! A highly trained martial artist, and tai chi IS a martial art, will have developed the technique to defend himself and inflict great damage. I am not talking 90 dao wonders. A true martial artist devotes himself to his art and studies, trains, applies his techniques. I don't say if he does then I do that, I train myself to react sub-consiously to the attack as I can defend and counter as I desire. It doesn't happen overnight; it takes years of intense training. During those years skills are built to defend against multiple attachers

      Most moves in forms are practical for a fight. Maybe if you actually took the time to understand eastern martial arts than you would know this. My shaolin monk doesn't just teach forms, he also teaches basic combos for a fight to be beginners who don't know much about forms. He also teaches chin na which is joint locks and how to escape from grabs etc etc etc. Shaolin monks do more than just forms, but there is a reason why they do master forms. But this guy, Fake Mace, is a fraud and is teaching fake kung fu. Fake Mace hardly ever tells what the applications of his so called "forms" are. He tells what the move in the form is for, but he doesn't demonstrate it on a real person. I can't confirm that everything he teaches doesn't work, because he is a fraud. Some or none of his shit might be practical, idk because i've only done real kung fu for about six months. No one mustn't trust what he is teaching because he is a scam artist and has no permission from his superiors to be teaching.
      Hope ya'll took something from my comment.

    The main thing that concerns me about this video, is that a boxers jab comes back very quick and gives time for repositioning and defence. I'd think for it to be more effective against a jab, you'd have to slip and strike at the same time. It would have also been nice to get some input from the boxer about the techniques.

    He demonstrated two things. A slip followed by a counter and fast twitch muscle training to increase the effectiveness of the counter. This is then compared to boxing. Which also has slips/counters/ and fast twitch muscle training. The key take away is martial arts is composed of combat and art. If you breakdown the art you will be able to see the combative application. Though not all people choose to practice the combative nature of the martial "art" it's still there.
    Boxing is a sport. It is comprised of special rules such as safety gear (boxing gloves), a ring, rules, and timed bouts. The only way to "beat" a boxer is to be a better boxer than the boxer you are fighting. It's like comparing basketball vs football... they're different they shouldn't be compared at face value.
    Finally if you just so happened to find yourself in a street fight with a boxer remember boxing is a sport. Street fights comprise of no rules, weapons, the environment, foul play, unfair match ups, and potentially multiple enemies. You could be the best boxer, tai chi dude, mma fighter, etc. At the end of the day a street fight is a street fight. Only the people who understand there are no rules and are willing to do anything to survive will come out on top.

      Left Right Yeah, I don't like that this guy's showing people moves that will most likely give them confidence in a fight and, at the same time, help them get their own ass kicked! I took Ken Po about 14 years ago, and they based a lot of their moves on jeet kune do. They taught a LOT of snap backfist moves to the face and front snap kicks to the groin. The snap backfists are quick, but I doubt it will do more than leave a bruise on most people, if that. Maybe it could stun your opponent, if they're absolutely out of shape and have no fight experience... or are much smaller than you which is kinda messed up :) A quick boxing jab is much more efficient in accuracy and power. However, Ken Po did teach me how to kick quite effectively for which I am forever greatful.

      istvankm plus something that none of these instructors point out. Most likely the person attacking you is probably going to be much bigger and stronger bc they see you as an easy target. These can be guys that you could full power punch to the face and they barely stagger. All the snap backfists and rib slaps are useless against that. Or that in real fights that person is on you like a rabid dog meaning flurries of strikes with them trying to run through you. Stuff like this will just end with you on the ground with them on top of you beating you to death

    @richardgoldsmith226 3 роки тому +2

    Tai chi is a martial discipline and when practiced correctly can create exceptional energy (chi ) that is centred around the lower belly. The movement builds strength, speed and heightens ones ability to read the telegraphing of an enemy’s attacks. You learn how to create space and readiness when being harassed.
    But the readiness has to be kept very inconspicuous until the very last moment! Be careful not to antagonise with a flash stance, as it can make a bad situation worse!
    Be humble and loose, but crack like a whip when needs be.
    Pacifying is the best form of Defence.
    Tai chi is taught by many people but its true essence is not.
    Never compare one discipline against another, but compare the disciplined against the none!

    Tai Chi is not practical for fighting at all. Boxing is I would say 90% practical in actual combat. To give u one example, just look at the first technique in this video. When the jab is thrown, he will barely start to react to it, and when he STARTS to go for that 45 degree angle step, the jab is already on its way back (that is if he didnt get hit by the jab). So, essentially, a three step process described here "react, step (pick your foot off the ground and move it to a different location and place it) and punch" will ALWAYS be slower than just "punch and retract" In a real life combat situation, we're talking in milliseconds. Remember that. Tai Chi is a very good (seems to me like a non impact) exercise for elders.
