- In this video, Master Yap Boh Heong shares his encounter with Dr. Ortwin Lüers, a master of the ancient art of Wu Ji Quan and how their meeting and the subsequent exploration into a martial art once thought lost to time.
In this interview, Master Yap recounts his initial skepticism about the existence of Wu Ji Quan until a chance encounter with Dr. Ortwin in Berlin changed his preconceptions.

Great to see how the world is still full of co- and other happy incedences! And how wonderful that this ancient knowledge is not yet lost.
I hope you find masters of XingYi and BaQua to have the opportunity to pass them on. Your effort is great in contributing to maintaining the ancient martial arts to avoid being lost.❤
I hope so too!
What wonderful news to regain such a treasure back into the world. I am thankful for you and too you for bringing this lost art to all of us.
I feel so blessed: I am at at a workshop with Dr. Ortwin Lüers this weekend. He is such a humble gentleman and an excellent teacher. The course on the website is on my list for next week! Thank you for sharing the art on your platform. 🙏🏼
Wonderful!
Thanks you so much. you are so great.
Thank you too!
Thank you very much for sharing 👊
My pleasure!!
Yes. It has been alive and kicking in the UK and Ireland since your father and Grandmaster Chee taught us it from sometime in the late 70’s. That’s when I began learning it, and then under under Grandmaster Han’s tutelage across the decades. Grandmaster Han taught many people in the Uk the art. It was often taught as a complement to Five Ancestors, but not always. I’m sure we all have valuable lessons to learn from each other. I’d certainly be very happy indeed to talk with Dr Luers. Maybe that could happen one day. I also know that I have only a good chunk of the art, but nowhere near the full system.
I have to say I was quite surprised to hear Mr. Yap saying he thought Wuji had died out, given both Grandmaster Chee and Grandmaster Han taught it in the UK and here in Ireland.
At one point in my training at the headquarters in Kuala Lumpur (1996), i was feeling a bit overwhelmed by the amount of material I was trying to process. Half in humour I asked Grandmaster Chee if i had to learn the Wuji, in order to unlock the full benefits of Wuzuquan. Interestingly he said no, not if you fully understand the Five Elements.
Nonetheless, my capacity to open my body and release tension in Wuzu was greatly improved by what little Wuji practise I did. And I have to say I still enjoy playing the Wuji jian.
Beautiful video. Very exciting. Sounds like a truly fantastic practice and a wonderful bridge from Tai Chi to other similar arts.
Thank you both for sharing.
🙂🙏🏼👊🏼☯️
Thank you very much!
Wonderful news 😊 Congrats to everyone involved 👍
Hi Kieren,
Thanks a lot for the invaluable knowledge on martial arts you are sharing with the world, your efforts help transform people into better copies of themselves.
I have a suggestion if I may: I believe it would be useful and more productive marketing-wise to have at least one lesson in your site available and open, for those interested to enroll in the course. I checked the link in the description and hoped to have at least a teaser or something with the teacher talking about the art.
Just an opinion 😉
Have a wonderful day
Thank you for the suggestion. I've already filmed an interview with Sifu Ortwin, which will be published on this channel in the coming weeks. This interview will offer viewers a better understanding of Wu Ji Quan and, Sifu Ortwin himself. Additionally, I'll consider your suggestion to make one of the lessons available from the course. Thanks again.
@@THEMARTIALMAN Dear Kieren, thanks a lot for the feedback.
All the best :)
That's an excellent idea. Need a taste test 😃
Would like to know what the difference is between wu ji and other chi based skills
They still have Wu Chi art in Vietnam. It is practiced very early in the morning, and very powerful for healing. But also practically applicable, as well - though that is much more difficult. It contains the Shaolin 5 Animals still, but, with a very unique understanding of the bodywork and articulation.
Thus it is said A time will come when the wisdom of the East will have to be brought back from the West!
Đúng vậy , ở châu á các bậc thầy không truyền phổ cập và tốn rất nhiều thời gian và công sức mới được dạy. Nên nhiều thứ cũng đã biến mất. Giờ những người châu á như tôi phải đi học từ phương tây những giá trị châu á. Nhưng may mắn là chúng vẫn còn.
Great ❤
Will the medical part have an online course too?
Yes, all being well.
Wow
❤
Good stuff
Appreciate it
this is interesting, but what are the fruits? are these "masters" living longer? looking young at an old age? able to defeat all challenges? buzzing people with your chi is something an electric eel can do much better than a chi master... what's the benefit shown in real life? also Bodhidharma was a blue eyed caucasian foreigner who brought his teachings from outside of China, probably from Tartaria as people are learning now and reading about in old books, so qigong and kung fu are really a Tartarian art, and this is new historical info that is just being revealed, thought you might want to know. China was ruled by Tartaria for some time and Tartaria and China shared an identical naval flag around the 1600's of a black dragon on a yellow background. Additionally Ruthenian (old slavic/Russian language) is mutually understandable between Sanskrit speakers and Russians pointing at an earlier union between the two, see video: "Russian and Sanskrit are one and the same language. English subtitles."
Loooool origin of kung fu is from Tartaria? Bodhidarma a blue eyed caucasian!?!? what the actual hell
You are trying to rebrand someone elses culture and sell it off as discovering something new.
@@JingyJingJing According to the principal Chinese sources, Bodhidharma came from the Western Regions,[5][6] which typically refers to Central Asia but can also include the Indian subcontinent, and is described as either a "Persian Central Asian"[5] or a "South Indian [...] the third son of a great Indian king."[6][note 2] Throughout Buddhist art, Bodhidharma is depicted as an ill-tempered, large-nosed, profusely-bearded, wide-eyed non-Chinese person. He is referred to as "The Blue-Eyed Barbarian" (Chinese: 碧眼胡; pinyin: Bìyǎnhú) in Chan texts.[11] - Wikipedia
We are now discovering things like the word China comes from the Russian word hetmanschina or hettmanschyna and that the area to the west of China was Tartaria and China itself was Tartaria for a long period of time, many centuries.
