There are things in the universe that does,nt need pigeon holing, comparison, words of explanation. like a film, a song, a movement, a poem, a pic, a dance, to name a few. This video for me is timeless. I will enjoy it as it is. Thank you for sharing.
I could spend two years (I can get pretty low already) developing the thigh and hip strength necessary to get to that depth of snake stance. Then I'd just have to break both my ankles to gain the flexibility to maintain root through the transitions. Amazing. And his crane! It looks like he could paint with his foot!
I am a practitioner for many years, but had not seen these moves. As you start working them, your concentration gets sharp, your body struggles, your breathing increases, and there is a wondering sense of calm. As soon as I did the Leopard I was hooked. Yes, it's going to take awhile to get to this level.
The crane is definitely the hardest. Requiring very good balance. Love the music. The way the gentleman is dressed in traditional clothing n topknot. He choose a very old spot to preform. All very nicely done! Thank you!
Wudang Qi Gong performed to perfection.The movements are so smooth and controlled .A real master demonstrating the flow that is the very essence of Daoisim
the chinese belief system does not require perfection as such , as this is also illusion. Strive not the strive.....practice makes permanent never perfection? I am from that heritage.
Truly the most beautiful movements. In order to learn, slow down your videos to .5 or .25. I am finding this makes a difference to follow along with the video. Anyone master the Snake yet?? ha ha These are wonderful poses and high-level difficulty. Thank you so much for recording this and sharing it.
Such an incredible skills and beautiful movement and shapes! I have never seen this style of qi gong before, but I love it! Truly inspiring, thank you!!
I saw my first Crane today sitting very low @11:51 EST. Caught myself from falling trying to advance and really learned the nature of a very patient progression from one form to another. Thank You Sifu Yuan...
Great Video! Anyone who gets into regular Qi Gong practice will find very little to moan about in their everyday life. Outer will circumstances become more and more irrelevant because you will feel sooo good inside!
wonderful.. don't really understand why there are dislikes.. they must be from martial artists who believe martial arts are for violence and oppression instead of truth and self exploration.
+geneticexpert1 Both the fast and slow deserve exploration, but the slow requires wisdom of patience, which the fighters maybe lacking.People afraid to slow down, are only interested in fast happenings.You exercise spirit when you slow down, exercise body when you speed up, and exercise mind when you endure.
@Twin Riddle Sadly, I've observed that in many (Americans, at least), age has not brought openness of spirit. The older people I am close to (over age 60) seem so closed in their thoughts and their opinions of the world and others. In them, age seems only to breed bitterness, and in large part has been the catalyst for my own drive to become more open, lest I end up like them. Instead, I've seen that openness most in children, before they let the aged shape their opinions and tell them who not to trust. Thoughts?
@@jimkeen7674 Sadly it is true. I'm one of the few young Americans who wants to learn all martial arts. I recommend anyone who wants to learn martial arts to start with Tai Chi. It's relaxing and it's better to learn balance and coorination first.
There are several reasons why I want to move out of America. Not having an open mind and discrimination is still pervasive. Hate and greed rules America, not it's hard-working people. I wish I can change the country.
I have watched many 5-animal qigong videos and I must say that this video is exceptional in every way. The subject was well presented by a well-disciplined practitioner. Most impressive. I never start NYR's, but this year, 2025, I am. And I wanted to start with the ancient & authentic form of Qi-gong. Twin friends I practiced forms of martial arts with, in the past, are both gone now. They recently passed, 4 yrs apart. They are responsible for my interest and although I possess a limited understanding of qi-gong, I have a deep respect for these arts and a longing to further educate myself in them. Thank you.
The video is great and the comments given below are very great............ I liked most of the comments... Wich teaches me more than my perception..... Great TH-cam you contributed more to the world......
No problem at all, It's I've become more familiar with the country but what's appealing about is that there's always new (old?) things to be discovered and varying customs, art, history and etc. that I just fell in love with the country I've heard so much about. I guess that romantic sense? But I quickly found that China's silently culturally rich and diverse, and a mystery to everyone (even to themselves). You won't find that in the rest of East Asia, so I agree. Hope you manage to and enjoy it
Thank you. “The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.” (Numbers 6,24- 26)
Sempre fiz esses movimentos,do meu jeito é claro,que na minha cabeça eu estava simplesmente me alongando, porém eu faço esses alongamentos respirando fundo e tudo, minha paz e consciência aumenta parece que eu fico mais consentrado no meu trabalho e vendo esse vídeo eu começo acreditar que esses movimentos faz algumas coisa de bom pra o corpo humano, agora vou me concentrar mais... obrigado por mostrar esse vídeo parcerio🙏✌✌✌🙏
Awesome stretching and warm-up exercises. Breathing is also important aspect. I think you inhale while moving into position, hold breath then exhale as moving back from position. Inhale again and hold for position to other side, exhale when returning to start position.
So beautiful i only wish my legs could do crane but i shall try to practice as much as to the true form as possible what a great set to do thank you so much a humble bow to you master
wu Dan is Taoist (think tai chi) whereas Shaolin is Buddhist which is, most likely, the five animal system you are familiar with. different approaches to the same idea.
Absolutely fascinating.I have watched this short video for ten times, and still I like it as mus as I liked it for the first time. The only difference is, that now I am trying to learn these forms.
I'm able to do all of the forms, save for the Snake. Knees start cussing me out once i reach a certain height. So, I'm going to practice the Snake in stages; getting a bit lower as my knees and hips get used to the movements and get stronger. This will be added to my warmup before i practice my Tai Chi. Thanks for posting!
Hi all! Be careful when doing the snake form, I tore a nerve in my leg over a year of practicing all these forms, it still has yet to heal fully after a year since, don't overextend yourself like I did. The other forms are easy in comparison, take it easy on that one!!! Good exercises for balance/acrobatics nonetheless. Peace all.
The older quality of the video highlights the flow in time with his interpretation of the forms. Even if that is filled in with editing, it is well done.
beautiful! I'm about to join a group to start learning shaolin kung fu in a few months, maybe I could start by doing these exercises daily to get a little taste of it?
I can come close to doing the Crane. It is a Yoga pose actually. It is also a kata created by Soke Tani; amazing. Crane and Snake are my favorite martial arts animals
Snake and crane moves were awesome weight transition from one leg to other leg in snake is great and the crane almost bring his leg like a scorpion hook🎉
Thank you for sharing, I will use these ancient techniques to learn how to walk again\ My Yin & Yang is the oldest and newest information combined. Thank you for the professional work.
Wudang.......so different from the rest like wow...see that dragon spread it's wings....and that crane make a stretch.... very interesting style of kungfu closest to the mystic art I think.
If one were to mimic the motions as if the video was a mirror would this interfere with the effectiveness of the qigong (eg reversing polarities or causing chi to flow in the wrong direction? Thankyou
I was lucky enough to be taught this. With each part you don't do it once per side, but three times. It takes time to be as flexible as him. After 2 years of doing this daily, you will be was flexible as him. The standing meditation in between parts has two variations, one for men and one for women. For men you take your right hand and touch your thumb and middle finger tips together, do the same with your left, but put your right ring knuckle in between them. For women, it's the opposite.

The richest, the genius and the variety of Chinese martial arts is beyond words. A true cultural gift to the world.
lol People love to buy into the nonsense
@@mortgagefinancing5558 Are ideograms non sense ? Then then, martial arts only are ideograms in movement.
Just don't use it in a fight :D
You had two fathers so you should know about that.

i COULD BE WRONG, TAI CHI IS AT ONE WITH NATURE THERFORE WHEN THERE IS NO RIGID FORM AND EXPECTIONS, YOU ARE YOU, YOU ARE FREE.

This is so beautiful. I'm perfecting my animal form: sloth.
El Joelo. Funny!
reminds me my dads old joke:
when i practiced origami, he said "i'll teach you one, it's called origami rock" and crumpled it into a ball
hahhh

The music is beautiful 🖤
He reminds me of one of the soilders from the terrocotta army. Come back to life. This guy surely is a master. Love the music to go with it as well.
I was in bin ma yaou..west of Beijin...bsck in 2006...and yes indeed..you are 100%.

Me senti bem só de ver tal bela arte .Gratidão ☯️
This is excellent, and beautiful too. Love the music.
Astonishing leg strength, balance and flexibility! Wow! Beautiful.

This is so Beautiful and Elegant! I love the music and my favorite is the snake form. Appreciation!! Thank you for sharing!
Pasan los años y sigo admirando esta forma y tu condición técnica. Gracias Shifu !!!
Hello Wudang, how many répétitions you may recomend for good training session ? Thank you.
Really gentle and powerful,
Grazie tante ancora Master Yuan Xiu Gang, and You for let available these precious contents even for us..
❤🙏
This is the hardest to do and the easiest to watch thing on TH-cam!
Hahaha.... yah especially the snake!.
agreed
Its a great form, breath in when you push, breath out when you pull. You dont have to do it slowly.
The harmony of Chinese QiGong movements, relaxing and enjoyable 😻🙏
such fluidity and depth of the stances... incredible! Really pure bliss to watch, I can only imagine the sensations...
Amazing! I learned alot on my visit to this masters school. Changed my life.
Lucky you. Did you travel to Wudang Mountain?
I wish that, Master Yuan would redo the video again on a better picture resolution. Thank you for sharing with us your masterful skills and knowledge.
two great master in my world Master Yuan and Shi Heng Yi....the depth of technique and deep knowledge astounding..
Marvelous strength, power, control, grace and fluidity.
Beautiful movements; flexible and strong. Never seen it before. Thanks.
Time, space, music and movement: Beautiful!
The video is great and the comments given below are very great............
I liked most of the comments...
Wich teaches me more than my perception.....
Great TH-cam you contributed more to the world......
This man's movements are better than textbook perfect...
Maravillosa Presentación, Muchas gracias por su aporte al Qigong
wondeful !!smooth and light move of master yuan.thanks...
Love his flexibility. Definite Tai Chi influence. Snake was marvellous, very Chen style.
No problem at all, It's I've become more familiar with the country but what's appealing about is that there's always new (old?) things to be discovered and varying customs, art, history and etc. that I just fell in love with the country I've heard so much about. I guess that romantic sense? But I quickly found that China's silently culturally rich and diverse, and a mystery to everyone (even to themselves). You won't find that in the rest of East Asia, so I agree. Hope you manage to and enjoy it
The music is of a style I like very much indeed . Thank you for sharing the Lesson ,much gratitude I have for you good sir !
The snake and the crane are simply beyond words! You would have to write a poem to describe it!
How would you write a poem if their "beyond words"

Very different from the 5 animal frolics I've learned elsewhere, but very beautiful and striking. The practitioner is obviously very skilled!
