What luck, for the kungfu teacher he found to be Gao style master Ge Guo-liang! I wonder if he realises what a good fighting reputation Gao style has overseas......

[windwalker]

Thought he showed a lot of "heart & soul"

His teacher watched him for 2 yrs.....
before asking him to join the CMA brother hood...

Was in Tianjin, a long while back.....met some interesting CMA practitioners there.

small story

Watching a Chen stylist push hands, he seeing me asked if I wanted to try....
Was able to toss him out,,,,with out to much trouble.

Out of what seemed like nowhere a lady comes up, taking his place .

Talking to him directly

"no not like that, like this " As she tossed me out.....

Haha! Too funny. How embarrassing for him, and he'll no doubt never hear the end of her critical commentary on his poor performance. Thanks, Mom! LOL

Should mention he must have been in his 20s, his mom probably in her mid 40s...

Lots of interesting CMA practitioners...

One who caught my eye, said he taught and practice something called "dao ja" if memory serves me.

At the time I met him, he working with a student from Japan,,,going through some stepping practiced with what looked like the standard pung, lu, ji, an, push hand, practice in a moving format going from a twisting horse to standing up, stepping , back to twisting horse..


He was able to get into extreme positions..mentioning there was 5 movements or sets...
Said he wouldn't teach anyone under 25 feeling they would not have the commitment he was looking for...


Very nice watching,,,,

Some of the positions similar to the poses shown

Might Look deceptively easy to some...

He had amazing control over his center of gravity....
allowing him to do things one would think not possible...
