So refreshing to see a teacher focus on effective actual real movements. Not just flash and preformance art. To me, if you are gonna learn anything, even if just for a peaceful meditative hobby, you should learn the "real" thing, not some fake pretend-version.

Где такая мастерская? Where is this workshop?

Beautiful the way you manauver those two tonfas

When I was in the Marines in 1975! Always wanted one of these WW2 Da Dao 😳if we did go into the Middle East, which we did 😵‍💫but, was already out of the Corps 😬was into Choy Lee Fut/ Hung Gar at that point 🇺🇸

👍👍👍🙏

Brilliant

where is the website to buy the same exact sword?

“有好事者, 得之朝鮮其勢法, 俱備固知中國失, 而求之四 商不獨西方之等韻, 日本之尙書也. 備載於左.” It is from Korea(朝鮮) and its name is Korean Swordmanship(朝鮮勢法). Why did you omit the correct name?

Where did you purchase your wooden Miao Dao?

有吴殳的著作吗？有无隐录的英文版翻译吗？

I'm a newbie. Pardon to ask, the tools in this video are wood/bamboo in emulating as weapons? Thank you 😊

hola muy bueno los resultados, me encantaria aprender miaodao

Hello, The Okinawa Den Bubishi　（沖縄伝武備志・武備誌） The Okinawa Den Bubishi, an ancient and mysterious work, has been passed down through generations by martial arts masters, primarily in the field of karate. This book contains combat techniques, training methods, and philosophical principles drawn from various Chinese martial arts styles, particularly that of the White Crane. Prominent karate masters such as Matsumura Sōkon, Ankō Itosu, Chōjun Miyagi, Kenwa Mabuni, and Gichin Funakoshi possessed copies of this work and enriched it with their own experiences over time. Reserved for advanced students and the closest disciples of the masters, this enigmatic book is divided into various sections covering breathing techniques, body strengthening exercises, methods of attack and defense, principles of traditional medicine, as well as excerpts from texts related to Chinese military strategy. The Bubishi is encrypted to preserve its esoteric content and prevent outsiders from accessing it. The author revealed the decryption key for this enigmatic book after meticulous analysis that surprised and amazed both Chinese and Japanese researchers. It appears from this study that the Bubishi is encrypted using Vedic mathematics. This discovery sheds new light on the understanding of the content of this hermetic work. th-cam.com/video/OIg0sBpWgQo/w-d-xo.html

Excellent, excellent, excellent research and presentation!!!

Miaodao is the modern derivation of the Changdao in the past. Miaodao sword is pipe backed type sword which is considerably different from Changdao or Dandao in the past. MIaodao as we know today using Pipe backed type sword was not yet known, the construction of Changdao in the past reflected more of the practical battlefield use. While Miaodao of today is much more modern rather than classical. However the best part of this Miaodao Master is teaching using the blunt non flimsy sword. Using flimsy sword in WUshu world is very bad enough, should stop in order truly practising real classical swordmanship

Here before this got animated or even drawn in Shuumatsu no valkyrie

2:04 you can see the conscious and nerve in the katana wielder's face when he tries to strike the Wolf Brush

great video

MUMYOU *SANDANZUKI*

I like a lot your work and the way you interpret these drawings. I've been trying to interpret the staff manual. Could u do a video of the solo sequences that it has please?

Do you have any video showcasing real combat of Zhan Ma dao? It's ridiculously difficult to find

This is amazing. Few teachers are like this one. Where is this school?

The WWII period Dadao weren't built for sword fighting, the idea was to simply to look intimidating and the psychological warfare of decapitating captured enemies. Outside of the skirmish between the Kwang-Tung Army and the Japanese Imperial Army in 1937, swords had become secondary weapons (in truth, swords/sabers have always been secondary weapons, even to spears and halberds). The sad thing is the resisting Chinese needed more ammunition, but the brass just kept sending more dadao. I'm not sure if it was a lack of resources, munitions workers, or what the reason was they kept sending swords instead of bullets.

Been studying Qi Jiguang's manuals for the last couple years, and cutting mats and bamboo with properly weighted miaodao and changdao. Indeed, Chinese Swordmanship is growing rapidly. ⚔

Hey

The forms with true martial heritage always look more beautiful than those modern wushu interpretations. Real skills being displayed.

Essentials of "the fist", most stances are made for "swords and katanas"!? O-o

could you make a video about Hyakkidou-ri?

Beautiful

Aha, so THAT'S how it's supposed to work👍

This is really good, very inspiring

These things could have been pretty useful as bayonets. Would have allowed 18th century musketeers the option to slash and stab whenever they get into melee.

Since the names and drawings of technique are the same, it is definitely copying from one origin. However I think the techniques are originated from China as 1. These are typical Chinese naming style in Ming dynasty; 2. If is is oginated from Japan, it appears weird that the name of technique are sorely in Chinese characters while the description is in Japanese. Thus it is more likely a Japanese translation of Chinese techniques. For the query that why the Japanese version appears to be earlier, I think the reasons may be: 1. The book was written later but claimed that the author is a famous historical character; 2. Even the original book was written earlier, new contents might be included when people are recopying the book.

Why are those swords so floppy? Are the historical ones more rigid?

This is priceless cultural heritage. Thank you for the subtitles!

This was fantastic! Really enjoyed it!

I've got this recommended after watching Yakuza ishin

this is definitely my favorite Chinese weapon besides jian. not only the looks of sword that similar to my favorite Japanese swords, the katana and odachi. but its techniques as well. for jian practitioners, they perform the techniques in calm and gorgeous way. but miao dao. as you see. 2:09, 2:14-2:33 , 2:35, 2:52, 3:05 , 3:50 4:09, 4:29, 4:37-4:57, 5:52-6:20, 6:21 they performed the techniques in aggressive way. you can feels the the seriousness, the fury of practitioners. like their blood are boiling. and ready to stab someone to death. totally badass style!!

Where did you buy this? If you use your right hand on the back of the sword, palm against the back, you can parry with it and slice using both hands to have better control. Alternating between blocks and two handed swings.

More talking

Oh I got recommended after watching Fgo Okita xD

Awesome! I'd like to see more about the instructor. He's great!

Swords were legendary. Now people think it’s nerdy.

Internet Poet continue your efforts to teach the ancient Chinese swords skills.I believe that with close observation of western sword methods you will be able to adapt to rhythm of western swords. While Perfecting the Ancient Chinese sword skills.Its a step by step body and mind process.Spend time visualizing your methods adapting enough to overcome an opponent with different rhythm and very skillful.Also find an expert in western swordsmanship with good character and Temperament.Slowly have friendly sword sessions.With friendship the door to adapting and taking your skills to a higher level is open without the risk of disaster to yourself or exchanging opponent!Have a great day Sword Master!😊

Great video. I'm seeing such ridiculous stuff in HEMA, which is reconstructed from unreliable medieval manuals and only tested against other amateurs reconstructing from unreliable medieval manuals. (Compare to Yu Chenghui. Professional European fight choreographers at last understand the real art, even if their body mechanics are inferior to the Chinese system.) Because most are amateurs, they think about making the strike only, and don't realize that protecting your body with the sword is most important. I was well trained in the Chinese system, and use techniques similar to the teacher in this video. No nonsense, no messing around. Swords are dangerous! (imho, the instructor in this video could take most fencers on the planet with a sturdy rod, just like my teacher. This is the real art.)

能发中文字幕吗

What you guys do is amazing. Thank you for preserving these techniques, they're valuable, and priceless hallmarks of Chinese culture, history, and martial arts.
