I met him in the 80’s just before his hip surgery. Very approachable unlike so many bad asses. A true practitioner of real martial arts. Very humble and honorable.
I had a friend who built a stretching machine with ropes ,& a tree. But you were at the mercy of who held the ropes. Needless to say more than once they would pull the ropes way too tight, he would cry out in pain. However after several months of stretching he became limber enough to sweep over his head ,& bust lightbulbs out of ceilings. He was already about 6'11when we were 14. I Miss you buddy
my dad use to make me stretch to bill everyday. in one of the videos he says, "don't worry if you can't touch your toes yet, you're mine for a while." he said it with this twinge of insanity in his eyes... love it
I watched superfoot take 3 different black belt instructors for 3 round each in the early 90's. It was an exibition so he was nice. Then one guy got all serious and punched him hard in the face. Bill opened up and kicks him hard in the face 4 or 5 times, it was hard to tell, happens so fast. Axe kick, heal kick, round hose side kick all to face foot never went down. The dudes nose busted, blood gushing, and Bill felt terrible. Prior to getting punched he was all nice and having fun then when the guy hit him it was like a dark cloud covered his face, so cool, he was pissed. Bill was so fast 4 kicks under 2 sec, his foot was as fast as your hand when swatting an angry hornet.
Whoever that was must have been an idiot, why would you switch and try to go all hard on the person training you, especially someone like Bill. Glad the guy got hammered. Hopefully that taught him a lesson.
Mr Wallace , as a beginner at 53 yrs old , im having a hard time learning to stretch nd my ligaments are having a hard time loosening up but im still trying. Will the exercises your teaching be helpful for muscles that are already conditioned or for beginners who have never stretched at all
Bill, you are a legend! I had to play this video really loud to block out all the pain induced grunting and screaming....my legs have always been as flexible as a 4x4.
+Rich Dixon I recall watching the capoeira series of tapes - believe they were made by Panther Production circa 1985 - 95 or there abouts. they had a whole heap of different MA/ training ones
@@Southpawgolfnz Bill was teaching and competing in Memphis when I was doing karate about 32 years ago. I was about 35 then and a student in North Mississippi. He would occasionally show up at some of the tournaments in that area. Bill is about 73 now. If you think he is good in these videos, you should have seen him in person back then! He was feared by everyone. Very few dared to fight him.
You can. It is not easy, no shortcuts, just putting yourself through intense discomfort almost daily to make advancements, which you will slowly but surely. I am in my 30s and have been making improvements in small increments over some months of very consistant training. Not in the splits yet but closer than i've ever been.
Hi Thank you very much teacher!! I have fifteen two years old and I have very difficult to extend my legs!! what do you recommend??? thank you very much!!💪👍💪
If you turn up the volume really high and listen carefully you can hear someone feeding him what to say. 14:08 you hear "goooood one more time now, then Bill says it right after.)
Im here after watching bill throw super fast lightning kicks in his 70s. Clearly whatever he does works. Most 70 year olds can barely get out of their lazyboys.
I met Bill Wallace at one of his exhibitions. He was the a narcissitic bully who intimidated and talked down to most people there. We left after 20 minutes
Just saying your constant "look at the difference. Look at the difference." Is based off your current position i.e. someone's position that was able to do the splits all along. Good stretches though.
I SUSPECT BW was as loose as hell, decades B4 this stretching series video was done! After all my daily HOURS of these types of exercises, Aikido/Jiu Jitsu “knee walking” (Shik-ho!) my legs, hips, knees and back are SHOT! I can’t stand up or walk without great effort and pain. The only pain free physical position I can make is the FETAL position!
when i do this my ankels hurt!!!! i trained on my feet on wooden ground should i use shoes or keep on feet and so they become use to it and get harder ?? can i do this two times a day or is that overkill? i wanna do split so bad for high kicks and flexibilty but im really really stiff :D if i try split i barely can do the V torture the other one i can do alot better the front kicking sit i dont know what its called in english (sorry bad english)but also painfull i just started today and i cant wait to do the split and be flexible left and right and then maintain flexibility just like BIll !
Nice vid ,, Wonder if he ever studied ballet type stretching etc,while at university or else where? where did he begin to learn and develope his stretching? Jeff Smith,Kang Rhee,other? Also,what effect has 2 hip replacement had on the range of motion and stretching?
I did a seminar with him this past fall. He's ancient and still kicking over his head and fast as lightning! He told us he had studied kinesiology, which is the physics of movement (of the body). I'm a PTA by profession and I can tell the depth of his study and understanding. The kinesiology is a huge part of his stretching routines, which are absolutely excellent, and physiologically sound. Not sure about the effect the hip replacement had on him though ... I sure couldn't tell!
White tiger martial arts Superfoot School ,cool, wonder if you would mind doing an interview and ask him about his experience with Bruce Lee? Preferably on video. Thanks in advance.
Messed Chuck up all the time? Bill was a kickboxer and Chuck did full contact. It's 2 different sports. Perhaps they trained together or something at some point but Chuck was never a kickboxer and far as i know bill didn't compete full contact.

Not only 'Superfoot', but a super teacher. Great instruction technique- good pace, good tone, good content.
I have tried the training. It appears to be great for fighting against the old age, one of our worse enemy. Thanks a lot !
I met him in the 80’s just before his hip surgery. Very approachable unlike so many bad asses. A true practitioner of real martial arts. Very humble and honorable.
Bill Wallace & BENNY THEJET and Joe Lewis !! The FEW who actually fought FULL CONTACT AND HAD OUTSTANDING RECORDS!! REAL BADASSES!! OF MARTIAL ARTS!😉
You forget Dennis Alexio and Don 'the dragon' Wilson.

Are you still flexible?
Travis Kraft yes
Did you manage to get the splits with his stretching routine?
@@poolboyinla at 40 I can almost put both feet behind my head. Still flexible.
@@macIain I could do the forward splits. Never could quite do the side splits. But at 40 I'm still in shape and flexible.
If only we had internet when I was doing this 30- 40 years ago
Best comprehensive yet simple stretching advice .
Explained masterfully
Excellent video
Thank you
Sensei Wallace
You are the real thing
this guy is not only a true badass but a great teacher too!
He's still this good today, I've attended a seminar recently. Great energy.
Jimmy sevendy Yes I love flexibility
Bill Wallace was the greatest karate fighter of all time!
I have watched superfoot Wallace for years and he is still in great shape and super fast. Thanks Wallace
Thanks for posting these videos. Bill Wallace is a legend and a class act.
What a fascinating gentleman. His kicks have always been quite inspiring, what a guy.
Bill, you are a living legend for sure! Great to see your video on TH-cam.
Nice to see a balance approach between methods and methodologies towards training, thanks for the insights.
You're still teaching, I'm still learning.
ONE OF THE FEW ORIGINAL FULL CONTACT LEGENDS !😉
Love it! Thank you sir! I can already get down about 2 inches off of the ground, and now I feel that I will be able to go all of the way down!
This will help keep me more flexible especially demonstrating kicking drills and.on focus pads.
Have meet him several times at BOA to be a bad ass like he is ... he is the nicest guy you will ever meet ... AND THE KING OF KICKERS
for his age this man is unreal ,,i realy hope im that fit at his age ,,respect,,,
This guy is amazing why would anyone dislike the video.
Thanks sir for your stretching advice, God bless...

deltamv Man I really wish I could meet bill in person.
deltamv I wish that was caught on tape!
well don judge the book y the cover cause somoene iz polite that does nnot mean they kannot switch on ya ass
Whoever that was must have been an idiot, why would you switch and try to go all hard on the person training you, especially someone like Bill. Glad the guy got hammered. Hopefully that taught him a lesson.
Wonderful for superfoot to share this, thank you….we do this in our taekwondo
Fantastic stuff. And I HAVE felt it, Mr. Wallace.
Thank you so much for posting this! Bill's stretches are the best :D
Hey!!! where's part 3/3 for the stretching?! Thanks!!!
Thanks Bill...great instructional video.
Mr Wallace , as a beginner at 53 yrs old , im having a hard time learning to stretch nd my ligaments are having a hard time loosening up but im still trying. Will the exercises your teaching be helpful for muscles that are already conditioned or for beginners who have never stretched at all
How is it going for you?
Bill the LEGEND.wallace.A great Martial Artist and An instructer par excellence
Bill, you are a legend!
I had to play this video really loud to block out all the pain induced grunting and screaming....my legs have always been as flexible as a 4x4.
Great exercise I do every day
Bill Wallace is the most obnoxious bully I have met. That is his real personality.
Only do 90deg but Bill's 90 deg is 120deg !
Old person but one in millions!
Very good teaching thankyou.
Did you do warm up before that?
Learned alot from this, thank you!
thanks for sharing F22Videos
Great vids, thanks for posting. Does anyone know the date of production on these videos or Bill's age? He is an amazing middle aged athlete.

Amazing work out

Bill would be a great PE Teacher.
goodness 8 years later.. cuz i see my old comment.... Im back on it this time im getting my splits. goodness about to be 38!
Excellent teacher.
omg in my 40´s streching dreaming make the split in some years lol

I am in my 30s and have been making improvements in small increments over some months of very consistant training. Not in the splits yet but closer than i've ever been.
Like the video but way too many ads. Will look for another source.
I used to use his stretching machine, despite only having 2 years as a black belt, I defeated other black belt with more years of experience
awesome knowledge thanks for sharing.
Great instructions!
Not much good for me, when he starts doing splits I cant get anywhere near them angles.
THANKS FOR THE TIPS
Hi Thank you very much teacher!! I have fifteen two years old and I have very difficult to extend my legs!! what do you recommend??? thank you very much!!💪👍💪
my pants ripped

Where is 3/3?
I can see he has a old injury to his right knee i have the same injury. cant put my knee all the way flat in the floor
Im here after watching bill throw super fast lightning kicks in his 70s. Clearly whatever he does works. Most 70 year olds can barely get out of their lazyboys.
Me gusta el metodo es practico y efectivo😅😅😅
I met Bill Wallace at one of his exhibitions. He was the a narcissitic bully who intimidated and talked down to most people there. We left after 20 minutes
I met Bill Wallace at the battle of atlanta, he was very engaging and charming.
I wish to see this 37 years ago.
a good stretch!
Great vid. Very technical.
He is awesome wallace you rock
WE ARE LOOKING AT ONE OF THE BAD AZZES OF ALL TIME.
should i do this everyday all three videos?
how do you guys keep your knees from hurting doing this stretching?
*****
That insult didn't even make sense. Queer.
i use 2 towels
Iben & Brian Meilandt how so?
Under the knee i slide better
Dont lock your knees out. You are hurting probably cause your tendons and ligaments are being stretched.
Awesome advise
Bill Wallace.... same as Joe Lewis..... great guys
i love you bill wallace
fabulously hard and effective!
I have met bill Wallis loads of times
+rubiks15 haha!
Our stretching was more hardcore and less beneficial I am thinking and greater risk of injury.
You kiddies out there just don't know.
Just saying your constant "look at the difference. Look at the difference." Is based off your current position i.e. someone's position that was able to do the splits all along. Good stretches though.
What brand of shoe is that?
awesome video

Jeff Smith,Kang Rhee,other?

No more than 90 degree angle he says as he goes out into at least a 120 degree angle
Gooood!
Reminds me.of Van Damme!
Flexibility off the charts.
Anybody know how to contact Bill Wallace or know him?
I know bill I own one of his schools and a black belt under him
White tiger martial arts Superfoot School ,cool, wonder if you would mind doing an interview and ask him about his experience with Bruce Lee? Preferably on video. Thanks in advance.
i'll see him again August 29th...i'll be sure to ask him
+White tiger martial arts Superfoot School Are you still under Bill Superfoot Wallace? I've always been a big fan
Yes
Dude he missed up chucky Norris back in the day in tournaments.
So he beat chuck all the time? Did Chuck beat him?
I imagine Bill would be at the mercy of whoever was able to get inside his leg.
Messed Chuck up all the time? Bill was a kickboxer and Chuck did full contact. It's 2 different sports. Perhaps they trained together or something at some point but Chuck was never a kickboxer and far as i know bill didn't compete full contact.
I went to a Bill Wallace seminar and found him to be an angry bully and a scammer.
simple ?
billy boy had double hip replacement in 2002 .
what does that say ??
+FUSSYMUAYTHAI It means after 40/50 years of training you may wear them out, but guess what? he's still spliting and kicking with his new hips boom!
+GeoffVanDamage ooooooohhh !!! #rekt
FUSSYMUAYTHAI so have the majority of old guys his age what does that tell you ....absolutely fuckin nothing
FUSSYMUAYTHAI and that was after like 30+ years of kicking
Man that guy knows how to stretch.gonna use this stuff see what it does
Oooww my legs hurt
8:29 You'll feel it in your left head phone
preachhh sUPerFOOt
Legend!
1:06
when i'm old i'll be like bill wallace
"I'm working the ligaments".... almost impossible to stretch ligaments. Good stuff, but needs to be updated.
👍
