The show follows Kieren Krygier traveling the far east exploring different martial arts and learning the secret skills and knowledge of the Grandmasters. Each episode will investigate various aspects of each martial art by interviewing the masters and allowing them to demonstrate their style and abilities on film. Giving the viewers a great insight into the martial arts world, and a front-row seat to learn directly from the masters.
the sifu is so kind to teach this pure gold lesson publicly like this. and also thanks martial man for the video.
Glad you enjoyed it
Watched this a couple of years ago and it changed everything, pure gold.
As the martial arts world turns towards more combative/sports applications, it would be a terrible shame if this ancient knowledge were lost. Thank you for helping to document so much of it!
Ancient knowledge of what?
rstyree - stupid ? , Ancient knowledge of internal chi and universal knowledge of yin and yang .👍
@@ponnarajashekhar760 yeah well that yin yang knowledge doesn't work well in an actual fight however it does look good on television
@@rstyree imagine calling someone stupid and citing internal chi in the same sentence
It’s pointless if nobody learns it
Excellent video!! I want to say this clearly, what Master Lin is sharing in this video is pure gold. These secrets have never been available for public consumption until now. Thank you, martial man and master Lin for openly sharing this precious knowledge with us. Thinking about the many years I wasted looking for these answers and to finally have found them here has given me goosebumps. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
I agree with you, this lession is gold :). The principles are available for public.. It's called technical mechanics :)
@@m4nuz Yes, I think in magician circles this would be known as "blowing the gaff" lol. It was always going to be mechanics.
It's not secrets. It's basic Taijiquan principles... (Though it doesn't take anything from the quality of the video and the master's skill)
It's not secret though. He explained the basic principles of everything and gave a very clear example in human dynamic. Nothing more, nothing less. Taiji learns this aspect, well... many years of it until you're a master of taiji (yin and yang)
For example, try pushing a car (neutral gear), don't tension your body. If you don't spiral down to ground to make that one connection, don't even hope to push the car and make it move.
@@trym2121 Some of you guys haven't figured out what's happening. Hint, it won't work on inanimate objects.
The most cogent explanation and demonstration of Fa Jin I have seen. I was fortunate to have studied with Sifu Fong Ha for many years in San Francisco.-12 hours per week in class + my own daily practice. For advanced students-this demonstration is priceless. It takes diligent practice to achieve this level of execution. Situ Fong Ha was a Master of Fa Jin with effortless explosive power .
Glad it was helpful!
My Tai Chi teacher showed me legs and footing are the root to posture and continuous movement.This Man shows some great knowledge and skill of force applied and taken, hence the whole
" What ever is given is returned."
Golden nuggets shared for free. Feel so grateful and respect to the Master.
Yes, Thank you to Master Lin for sharing his knowledge.
These are lumps of coal
Brilliant. So clear and obvious. Very grateful for this video.
Thank you for posting! Gave me a better profound understanding of Yin Yang
You're very welcome!
Very thoughtful and coherent lesson removing all esoteric language and mysticism
Very well explained by the Sifu. Everything is UFC and MMA these days that it’s nice to see such truly ancient knowledge being taught and passed on. Obviously there are frauds out there who claim to know such secrets and charge fees for instruction but it’s clear than Sifu has a deep connection to ying and yang and knows deeply how such equal yet opposing forces work within Tai Chi. Fascinating video as always.
Oh you mean everything has been boiled down to what works and what is complete charlatanism? Yes.
What works for what? To fight under MMA rules in a cage like gladiators relying on brute force and brute speed just for fame and money to end severely injured in your fourthies, if not sooner?
Your kind "evolutionary" mindset is working against you, guys. The MMA boom is getting "old". Many people are looking towards more traditional martial arts because they (we) are tired of the same poor kick boxing + wrestling stuff and the whole spectacle narcissistic hype. Many people are looking for what the MMA combat sports lost in the way. To me that is improving, not "going backwards".
Excellent, it was the missing part of my understanding in some exercise we practise in another martial art. But some key points my sifu keep repeating but as a student you cannot understand them until you practise them to success. relaxation (breathing and no muscle tention), rooting (energy coming at you to the ground and being send back), intent (force going forward) thanks for this video with this Master Lin Kuancheng on this topic.
Amazing demostration Thankfull
I watched this 4 years ago. I still seek a teacher that I can learn to do it myself.
The best Master with opened mind
and awesome explaining of fa jin
I have been enthusiast every time I watched a video of yours, but this, Kieren, was a real eye opener! Thank you for your hard work. If someday the general public will start to see beyond the misconceptions about internal arts being "not martial arts" it will be thanks to you and people like you who work hard to show what ancient arts were really like.
Thank you for your kind words.
Very interesting. Thank you for sharing
You’re welcome, thanks for watching!
GREAT MOVIE Thank you so much
Love this sifu.. profound understanding of Yin and Yang..
You know, when you pay attention to what he says, it's just physics. I really like how simple his instruction was. Made it very understandable.
These are incredible and invaluable explanations. Thank you to Shifu for explaining and thank you for the video!!!!!
Thankyou for sharing what a wonderful explanation from a master who obviously enjoys sharing his life knowledge and skills with others.
Finally I understand, well to some degree! Thank you so much martial man!
I'm glad the video helped.
This is fantastic! Thank you. I learned so much.
Wow great work, respect to Master Lin and yourself :)>
A gift! Thank you. 🙏
As we learn from these seeming fragile older masters it would appear exemplary of the Yin-Yang philosophy of equal-opposite unanimity of forces given the fragility of his physical stature coupled with the power of his internal faculty. He himself seems the perfect example of Yin and Yang in action. Utterly fascinating Martial Art/Artist.
Really clear and concise explanations, thank you for this!
Wonderful!!! a very helpful video, ying and yang explained in a practical way
Utterly, ineffably superb!! Truely great stuff mate! Phenomenal :)
Absolutely magnificent manifestation conquering deepest concepts of Ying Yang ultimate guide..
14:30 confirms this is real to me. When the arms are that close to body, it is almost impossible to push in that position as your room for leverage is compromised therefore the force must be coming from another source outside of his arms. once again a fantastic interview by the martial man, keep up the good work.
HAHAHA holy shit you have to be kidding me. That shit was about as believable as someone disappearing when they play peek-a-boo.
Thank you for sharing your videos 🙏🏽 All your videos are really interesting and valuable! 🙏🏽 Peace 🙂
Thank you for this brother. It is great to learn about the true nature of Tai Chi. Peace and blessings from NYC! 🕉☯️
Clear cut explanation superb brother and thank you.
Thanks and appreciate for sharing. Its explain that Yin Yang can applied in many ways/direction. Circular up and down, left and right, and back and forth. Excellent explanation by master Lin Kuancheng, very rare a teacher want to open the understanding to outsider .
I’m so glad he displays that the force expands in all directions like a inflating ball. Most don’t get this and can’t get the engine running properly and end up using external force.
Excellent fa jin move thank you so much
Wow, this teacher actually imparts the secrets of Fa Jing to him and also the public!
Beautiful explanation. Thanks for sharing.
Very complete and rare for explain about Fajin 🙏
Excellent video!!! Excellent Teacher!!!
Glad you liked it!
nice work, very honest and surprisingly open too.
I love this channel is so special and so great with sifu teach
love and peace from greece
Sir .your video is very much educational just like teacher teaching students in a class room .thank you sir.
Très bonne explication 👍je joue souvent avec ce principe de spirale et cela m'apporte énormément 👌
Merci pour le partage
This is awesome. Didn’t know that about tai chi. It reminds med of Newton’s first, second and third law.
But tai chi was first :)
Really great content on this channel that you can't find anywhere else.
chinese martial arts are full of wisdom and spirit. greetings from singapore
But no techniques that work.
@@brandontodd14 actually there are a lot of technique that works very well
@@Baroxshitposter665 Naw
A very informative video and the art of Fa-Jin
Treasure... I don't think most people understand how this is the secret to Tai Chi, internal martial arts and... Actually all martial arts when one master it. A different side of the same mountain. But a hidden side, very hard to access if not shown the way.
This is amazing, very good. So good to see this. Many people won’t u derstand
I levitated and shot jizz out of my completely flaccid KoK without even laying a finger on it. Most people won't understand.
He's very open to tell these things in public. Not saying that this is bad, but really unusual for Chinese teachers (I know he's from Taiwan, I mean Chinese in a cultural sense). Really treasured knowledge, that he makes openly available.
What really impressed me besides his taichi master class, is that his voice stays steady while breathing heavily; it's a bit like talking normally while running uphill quickly.
Thank you so very much for sharing this, this is so much better than a book because I can see it and not have to imagine it. I am watching this over and over absorbing it so that I can attempt to mimic him. Absolutely fascinating, thank you again my brother it is very much appreciated. (Bows) 🙏 Blessings
Let me know how it goes and if you can replicate what Master Lin is sharing in this video. There are six more videos from this interview available to watch on my website, explaining the method in much more detail. Feel free to check them out in the member's area of my site. themartialman.com/members-only-videos
Sifu, from all of your travels around the world meeting the different masters who’s kung fu was the most memorable?
Please look to travel to San Francisco to seek out Master Cheuk Fung. His level of internal skill far exceeds this teacher. This would make a fantastic edition to this type of applied skill 🙏🏻
Teaching Very frankly . Thankyou so much
Good one thanks! Will check out the member videos now.
ToddFrom RichardsonTx let me know your thoughts on what Master Lin shares in the member’s videos. Enjoy 👍
Will do Kieren. You are 12 hrs my future or I am 12 hrs your past. Yin Yang are everywhere. LOL. Just like the youTube comment section between the believers and nonbelievers. LOL. Blessings 🙏
I always find it frustrating when people post comments declaring something like this fake. These are demonstrations of the martial art's foundation principles, not the art itself. This sifu does not teach students how to sit in a chair and send four people flying with no apparent effort. He is teaching students how to access more power by applying certain techniques rather than just athleticicm and brute force. Once you understand that this man is teaching biophysics, you can quickly see that it isn't "fake" -- it's literally laws of force and motion being applied to self defense situations. It only sounds mystical to you because you perceive that he is trying to claim some kind of otherworldly power... but he's not, he's just using traditional terms to reference various aspects instead of throwing formulas at you (because he didn't learn this as science; he learned it as art).
I have seen principles like this applied to "real fights". So have you, only you missed it because you expected it to look like the chair demonstration rather than a fight. Look at how an older George Foreman fought. He rotated his body rather than just throwing his arm; force backward became force forward. He always used his connection to the floor under his feet. He seemed to take insane punishment without much injury, even from extremely powerful punchers, by staying relaxed and dissipating the force through himself. I won't say that Big George's natural toughness and strength didn't assist him in the application of these principles... but if he just relied on his build, he would not have been nearly as good as he was. And he would not have been able to knock men out with punches that looked like they shouldn't even hurt. George's hands seemed to weigh 300lbs.
Excellent comment and observations. Well said.
@@THEMARTIALMAN I have lived my life studying these arts and I also have to explain over and over again to the ignorant fools out there who do not get it. It's great you share these videos with these good masters on here
I think it probably involves way more than just biophysics. I don't know what that would be, and in the current scientific paradigm it's hard to explain, so people think it's fake.
-
Take a look at Martial Man's videos on Adam Mizner or other masters as well. Clearly it's not just biophysics, if you think what he's doing is real and not just a trick. Which I do think is real, having some martial arts training myself and developing a discernment for what's real or not in a video purely by observation after having researched this area a lot.
-
It floors me how some people who've watched 1, 2, or 3 videos from Martial Man, and then proceed to think that that is the totality of the internal martial arts. Uh, people, what Martial Man has here is called a youtube video channel. You know that thing where you can host and store lots of your videos. Maybe, people, it'd be a good idea to check out a bunch of his other videos.
-
Or that people watch the videos, yet comment as if they didn't watch them at all. In one ear, out the other. (Or is it in one eye, out the other in this case?)
-
If you have watched all his other videos, this then doesn't apply to you. Just a general statement to casual viewers of his videos.
Lin will not last 60 seconds with an MMA fighter.
@James Johnson calm down before that aneurysm pops. if my comment about watching videos doesn't pertain to you, then it doesn't pertain to you. i never said it applied to everyone. But plenty of people watch a video of this or that, but for some reason fail to realize he has a whole channel dedicated to this area with plenty more information
-
And what "alignment with latest trend"? That's got nothing to do with what I said.
Fa Jing is really just the physical manifestation of constructive interference in wave theory. The legs produce some force that is lessened as it travels, but then that wave force hits the hips which add their own force in sync with the leg force, the total force goes up and travels to the shoulders where it has lessened slightly due to moving through the body, the shoulders take up the wave, add their own force to it and let it flow down the arms to the opponent. Force loss through the body is minimized and each part of the body adds its individual force to the total force package delivered to the opponent.
Its not that old masters have some secret power, they have just spent years perfecting their timing of body motions to minimize wasted energy and deliver all available power to an opponent in perfect timing.
dfullerton93 boxer does the same to punch. Nothing special
Perfect balance.
Exactly right. Very simple, but hard to learn I found. There are many more ways of getting it wrong than of getting it right!
AMAZING explanations!
This is very advanced knowledge
But not though...
Thank you Sifu, very interesting, I am definitely studying the other videos, thanks again and Amitofu. 🐦 👻 oops, please pass on this and all the best, oops 🐯
Have you read The Tao by Lao Tzu, I downloaded a pdf and its a awesome read Sifu, I would also recommend anything by Richard Dawkins, often maligned yet it is clinical in its clarity and conclusions, both must reads. Hope you dont think im blowing my own trumpet 🎺 you have gave me something and im trying to level my scales, lol 💀👻💀 🐦 thanks again.
Thanks u Master. Ur a master of Righteous. U are in Christ.
Yes, great explanation and much respect, but show in an ambush, with combat pressure and speed, without a compliant attacker.
thats so nice, thank you mister martial man !
Excellent -“back and forward”
That spiritual energy power waves is really really really on da highest level with that great God 💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💚✅
Which god? I for one worship the booty.
thanks for the important thery explination
Thank you Kieren for this great video! Chen Zhonghua of Chen taiji practical method would be a really interesting interview too..., just a suggestion... Keep walking m8 ;)
psolenius great suggestions. I’m interested in meeting and interviewing them both if it’s possible 👍
I think I sort of stumbled on this from training chow gar tonglong. My sigung incorporated taichi into the system so the heavy bridge mixed with the yielding and pivoting/ sensitivity of taichi seems to develop what he's talking about.
To me, it feels like yin and yang are like open and close, expansion and contraction, expend and conserve, or seek and withdraw. Two different modes for directing your intention or will and when they work together you get extension and direction.
So as a simple example, you can open your hand as wide as you can, or crush it into a first as hard as you can. But if you do both at once, your fingers will extend forwards with an accumulation of tension at your finger tips. It even takes compressive pressure off the joints. But then you'll notice that when you do that, the tension on your elbow changes, then your shoulder, then your neck and chest, then your core, all the way until you follow that line of tension to the tips of your toes.
It doesn't take strength, it takes focus and coordination
This vid is awesome thank you for making and uploading awesome vids. I haven't seen this type of gung fu since the 90's
Thanks for sharing these dynamic concepts
This tai chi master understands up and down!! Most do not...
They say the waist is the commander. That is what spirals. Between the pelvis and the bottom of the rib cage there is no support except for the spine and the various abdominal muscles. So the abdominal muscles are used to create a waist twist which is the spiral he is talking about. Stand up straight and rotate your rib cage without moving your arms but simply by using your abdominal muscles. Let your arms hang at your sides. It takes a while to feel it. The rotation or spiral or twist of the abdomen is very slight but it's there.
i like learning taichi but in the end as a martial art for self defence where does any of this assist when an attacker doesn't want to hold your arms, and is coming at you with skilled strikes aimed at your head, kicks from various angles...who doesn't want to comply and is unpredictable... in a real fight you have split seconds to react. I worry people are losing faith in these fighting methods because we see very little in the way of real sparring...you can't even find any real sparring videos where the master wears protective gear against an attacker who wears protective gear but is asked to genuinely attack, no holding back...videos that shows the students how taichi can overcome any real life attack. I had to leave my class because i saw students after 10 years of training show no usable skills in self defence...I still meditate for long hours and practice my form as i feel strong Chi throughout these exercises, it feels like pure ecstacy, powerful, magnetic, warm, fluid... so i know Chi is real within me and i can direct it...but transferring it's use into real life self defence applications has not materialised 'yet'...i am hoping that continuous awareness of our life force can allow us to sense another persons Chi and allow me to evade and attack on the basis of this Chi interaction...that would be very useful :) ... but i am going to also train in a more physical art as i could get attacked any day...and Tai Chi at the moment for me is only going to get me hurt that help me defend myself..
I reckon this may be best explained using Newton’s first law: action and reaction are opposite and equal. When the leg is pressing downwards on the ground, the reaction generated from the ground is rising upwards in equal amount. The main secret is to understand the origin of force is not from any parts of the body but from the leg. Taiji theory 太极拳论 states: 其根在脚，发于腿, 主宰于腰, 形于手， rooting in foot, transfer to leg, control in waist, manifest in hand. Thanks for sharing this video as the master uses the gadget to explain well the Yin Yang theory, supplement by the sparring to demo the theory and its application.
Thanks for watching!
If his legs are generating the power, how is it that he did it to several people at once while *seated?*
More likely, his volunteers are just in on it and deliberately jumping away, and this particular guy has all the credibility of Uri Geller.
Please interview Master Dr. Yang Jwing Ming
yang jwing mking is excellent
I very much enjoyed my time at the retreat center with Dr. Yang. Funny guy too
The theory stuff I don't know if it's real or not but the demonstration at beginning is not real. The students definitely jump back, you can see their legs jump back as the master pushes. Maybe the master tells the students to exaggerate so that the audience understand what he is doing, but there should be no exaggeration in martial art, everything must be clear as daylight. Otherwise, people will look left and right and don't know what is real and who to trust, like NOW.
Awesome. I know this method and it comes in handy without using dantian
Great 👍
Good stuff
15:10 the cameraman's breathing is heavier than the sifus.
I believe that is actually the sifu's laboured breathing. He is wearing a lapel mic.
The absorbing of force through his body, thats the golden bell cover isnt it
No, it is not the "Golden bell", that is something different. What Master Lin is demonstrating is 'Hua Jin'
I would like to have an instructor like master Lin Kuancheng. Are ther teachers like him in California. Thanks. Mehran from San Diego.
This is 100% fake martial arts that only works on brainwashed students . Look up the Tai Chi and Gung Fu masters and lineage holders who have been getting their asses kicked by amateur and self taught fighters . If you want to join a cult , follow these guys . If you want to learn to fight look elsewhere. This is now referred to a s fantasy based martial arts versus combat based martial arts. Waste of time. Look up Xu Xiaodong, a self taught fighter . He’s been effortlessly beating these guys.
Can we please focus on saving arts by showing how they actually work in fighting?
It's a good thing you have another translator, because the woman who was trying to translate is apparently missing some key details.
Good video, thanks!
Well, leg push the earth as earth wont move body will move instead, hand push the opponent from body, combined, so basically fajin is kaeru punch. But for me, in the opening vid. Still feel like the students are jumping of from the master not pushed by.
While he’s still alive why can all the skeptical people tries his ability? So next time when he dies they won’t say bad things anymore. And don’t forget to make the video if his ability was real or can’t be used in real fights.
Great work martial man really great man. Finally sifu explained how the internal force is generated. Two opposing very small movement create massive force. But what about chi ?????
There are various methods in the internal arts. The method Master Lin teaches focuses on is the theory of Yin Yang to create the Jin. There is no mention of Qi (chi) in this method. Thank you for the positive feedback.
themartialman.com/the-six-levels-of-the-internal-arts-a-universal-method-for-the-internal-martial-arts-practitioner
@@THEMARTIALMAN Thank you for sharing. I have added a comment there also. This is similar to what Dr. Yang Jwing Ming has described in detail in Qi Gong foundation lectures. He has described the way to Qi Gong is Body, Breathing, Mind, Qi, Soul. Regulate your body with mind until it you can regulate without thinking (practicing form), Same goes for breathing and mind. Then we can feel the Qi. Please try go get an interview from him. He has even described in Qi Gong foundation how to move Qi with breathing and intent to heal the body or to use it for martial purpose. I am thinking to get a yearly membership in your website next month.
Chi most be harvest,stored and transfer or release.But to do that you most be hard on the inside soft on the outside.Its wat you call internal explosive power.So the body become gest the tool expressing the chi force.
Very cool shit. Now do it fast. (I'm sure he can) Also, you need to achieve a certain mental/emotional state to be able to do this in an actual violent encounter or the physical technique and particularly the energy technique, will not work. To be that relaxed in the middle of a violent encounter requires a ton of training.
james pisano you raised some good points and I agree with what you said. Achieving the correct mental state is key if you wish to use these skills in a violent encounter. For some, the idea of using these skills in combat is not so important, however, they certainly have the potential to be used in that way if you train for it 👍
@@THEMARTIALMAN The good news is, as you train, you reap enormous mental/emotional and spiritual benefits. In fact, the spiritual benefit can really only be gleaned when you practice the martial aspect of the internal arts. Some people just want to play Tai Chi to feel good and don't study the martial side. They won't get the full, spiritual benefit.
@True WingChun I'm not sure I understand what you're saying besides recommending a video.
@Martin Freiwild I never asked a question. No worries.
@Martin Freiwild No worries. I'm too specific. My bad.
Great cultivation
Emphasis on the "cult" part.
My understanding as of now : You shape your structure dynamically using a spiral form that transmits the opponents force to the ground, at the same time (or in time) you adjust your form so that the the applied force bounces back from the earth through the readjusted form (from the foot to the hand) and the structure simultaneously returns the force to the opponent. I am guessing that with time and practice only an infinetesmal imperceptible adjustment is needed. Please correct me where I'm off
Interesting
But I'm sorry to say that opening demo looks extremely fake, not that it IS fake, it LOOKS similar to something very fake. It's those kinds of appearances that give the "disbelievers" fuel for disgust. Now the one-on-one demos that make up most of this vid is actually impressive to me, I really wish to learn a bit more. And I don't see him "spiraling back" at all as he is saying, what exactly does he mean?
Oh it's fake alright lol
This has become a rather esoteric journey.
You seem to be concentrating on the "internal arts" to the exclusion of the intricacies of purely physical expression.
It would be interesting to see you in a Muay Thai camp, Peter Consterdine's Thursday night class or one of Lee Morrison's sessions and see how you respond to that, as well as how those practitioners of the martial arts work with the internal guys when they are brought together.
He's right in his explanation, but at the true internal level, your body will not move, internal power is issued & your expelled.
Incredible.
vidéo très intéressante sur le principe interne du Yin Yang
I wonder how often he trains at this stage in his life or is it not necessary to train in order to have the power that he has? What I am asking is does it get to the point where you don't really need to practice in order to keep it up? I noticed that sifu was out of breath, which I find a bit strange considering he is hardly using any muscle force at all. What is really going on inside of him?
