Those old secret societies are not linked to the triads. The triads were low-life gangs in Shanghai who used to worked for the foreigners as henchmen or enforcers. When the communists won, they fled to Hong Kong and started naming their gangs with those old secret society names. They fled to Hong Kong because they were afraid they would be targeted by the communists for their role in the Shanghai massacre where they, along with the foreign militaries, murdered revolting labourers.

Just asking: do you do reaction videos? cuz as a response to your "All of China's Dynasties on ONE video -- Chinese history 101" I would recommend a couple of playlists from youtuber "胥渡吧": "__"朝群聊 （"__" dynasty group chat） These are generally 7~9 minute edits from different tv dramas, voice-overed and portrayed as group chat. Praising, discussing, jabs, and even dissing each other about the accomplishments and mistakes each other has made. comedic videos in which prompts/encourage to learn/research Chinese history in-depth for more appreciation for its jokes. Very interesting. I would recommend some of the recent playlists: - 宋朝群聊 (Song dynasty group chat) - 汉朝群聊 (Han dynasty group chat) - 三国群聊 (Three Kingdoms group chat) Also, some of these "group chats" are already published as books.

Please do the video of the TEN TIGERS OF CANTON. Thank you 🙏🫡

10 tigers of canton!!!!! I’ve tried looking up info online for the ten tigers but I mostly get the myths and legends of each of the fighters.. looking for more factual details. Please get into this topic!

Jet Li also did a movie where he is Hong Xi Guan carrying a metal retractable spear. 😂 Just couldn't play the nun role though 😂

Ng Mui! Thank you for teaching Yim Wing Chun! I love practicing both Wing Chun & JKD!

Coffee and Kung fu - what a perfect match

So today I have to thank you for your Sponsor and your explanation of its benefits. I’m a physician and over half my patients drink too much coffee. This Daye’s coffee sounds like a very good choice for some of my folks who clinically NEED to give up coffee or cut back on their caffeine intake. I Love your channel and presentations btw. Bravo!

Liked and shared to friends representing Korean, Chinese, and Japanese fighting arts styles. They'll get a kick out of this.

As a Chinese myself, I haven't heard much about these (2:36) either, 😅 well done, thanks.

Another great episode! Thank you so much Ben. I would love an episode about General Qi Jiguang. Author of "Essence of the Fist".

I love hearing about the martial arts legends thanks

少林五祖 is a well-known Kung Fu movie in China, if you are interested in Chinese KungFu, this movie is highly recommended!!!!

Amazing video, really want to learn mandarin when I see your videos.

I'm Absolutely Enjoying this Channel ‼️ It's funny to me how much the Bak Mei Pai has become incredibly popular, given that it's founder was Hated so much that nearly every Chinese Sifu that I personally know that teaches Hung Ga here on the East Coast of the U.S. hated Bak Mei and wanted Nothing to do with the style. I did hear a version of his history were he actually did travel to Emei Mountain. Not much is known of Fong Do Duk except that he created the White Tiger System (Bak Fu Pai). Gee Sim Sin See is suppose to have been the Sifu of Hung Hei Gung and learned Tiger Boxing from him. I read that Fong Sai Yuk died at a very young age as the result of Fire. Side Note: In many of the old Shaw Brothers films they would put both Hung Hei Gung and Fong Sai Yuk together to fight against the ruling Ching however, these Two Great Heroes of Shaolin, never actually met each other. Hung Hei Gung himself died of natural causes in his 70's. Can't Wait for the Guangdong Sup Fu. 🤣🤣🤣

I always heard my dad and other elders say “天下武功出少林” and wondered was it related to the burning down of the shaolin temple and the birth of different martial arts by those monks who survived

You presented 5 names. But only talked about 3.

Excellent. They look as though they may have learned from the Master Himself, the Real Kung Foo, Kwai Chang Caine (RIP). Looked for he could not be seen, reached for he could not be touched. The Way of the Tiger, The Sign of the Dragon

Have you related the history of Ngo Cho Kun or 5 Ancestors Fist?

You're awesome, great info! Please do a video about Beggar So and Drunken Kung-Fu! 🤛🏻🍶🤜🏻

Actually yeah, Drunken style is really interesting to people

1647 1674 1732 north (Henan), South (Fujian) or both Given that Chi Sin Sim Si allegedly built a 3rd Shaolin temple after the burning of the south, the dates make sense. 1647 - either Henan or Fujian temple is burned 1674 - either Henan or Fujian temple is burned 1732 - Chi Sin Sim Si's Jiulian Shan temple is burned.

In the sponser part I was like oh not tea anymore

You have a video on another channel from which I learned that I should not have removed the labels off of the bottles if I want to get 💵 for recycling them. Thanks!

The PRC is well known for being biased to their own ideals after the revolution. So for all we know pak mei is probably not as evil as they depicted him. Just a guy who didnt want to take part in any rebellion. Pai mei was the one who developed the style named after him which is an aggressive version of wing chun. It's genuinely a cool and beautiful style which was used for the game sifu. It's surprising how the style is not really used in any kung fu films.

I am a member of the Hung Mun. Sworn Brother. The OTHER 5 monks that were also in Shaolin are Choy Dak Jung, Fong Dai Hung, Mah Chiu Hing, Wu Duk Dai, and Lee Sik Hoi. These were the 5 that actually survived the temples destruction. I am a member of Fong Dai Hung's tong/lodge. Fong Dai Hung is also an ancestor to my kung fu style, Hung Sing Choy Lee Fut. Personally, I believe Choy Dak Jung, and Lee Sik Hoi are also of my kung fu history and lineage. Those 5 monks spread out all over China and established their own personal Tongs/Lodges. Fong Dai Hung's people came to San Francisco and established a major branch of the tong in our Chinatown. But they also went to any country in the world that had a Chinese community and established their tongs as well. A deeper look into THOSE 5 monks specifically, would be something i'd watch.

Were they the 5 that survived the burning of the Northern or Southern Shaolin Temple? If it's the Northern Temple, why replace or state "actually" and/or "really" the 5 presented in this video? I'm very interested. Can you elaborate.

@hungsingkwoonusa650

2 ай бұрын

there is so much confusion because martial arts wise, there seems to be two sets of 5 ancestors. the one from the Hung Mun states it happened in the norther,n temple, but moved to the south because the southern one was a major hub for the Hung Mun revolutionaries. the hung mun version, happens around 1761

10 tigers, yes please!

@learnchinesenow - Can you please make a video about the Ancient Chinese Martial Arts of “Shuai Jiao”?

Interesting 🤔

xiexie/do jie for these videos I really love to hear the history of my Wing Chun, now if I can just learn the language, I'd be sitting pretty but for now I'm chuffed to converse in Gaelic

Looks like people have been against crystalizing styles for a longer than I thought .

Never thought id learn kung-fu from a white boy lol; 2 sifus i trained with were white. Speaking of coffee i reccomend Ka'u coffee, what i grew "southern style" (yes most southern point of the US) where i was training. Good video, thanks 🤙

Choi Lay Fut/ Choi Li Fut/ Cai Li Fo Did not come out of the Shaolin Temple.

I can tell you my kung fu schools experience with Bruce Lee. In 1959 at 19 years old, bruce came back to SF thinking he was going to be the first to bring "KUNG FU" to America. Little did he know, he was late by at least 40 years. The first person to bring Kung Fu and teach it in America was Professor Lau Bun of the Hung Sing Kwoon, est OFFICIALLY in 1939. Unofficially since the 1920's where it was ONLY taught to triad members. In 1959, Prof. Lau Bun was 68 years old when Bruce Lee showed up on his doorstep. He tried to challenge the old man to a fight, and the old man looked at bruce and told him and I quote "Boy, I am an old man now. I have no time to play with you. I will K*ll you!!!! then scolded him for embarrassing Ip Man in this fashion. For the old man, kung fu from his day was only intended to end someone's life. he would have taken bruce's life in a heart beat and think nothing of it. that day, bruce left the hung Sing kwoon with his head hanging low without another word. other incidents happened, but that's for another day.

I never like videos but if you’re gonna talk about the 10 tigers …🔥🔥🔥🔥

There Were none nun called Ng Mui. The real history of Wing Chun goes back at least 2 generations Before Gee Shim and Ng Mui.

Of all the combat arts, it seems Kung Fu is the most impotent.

probably the biggest thign about CHinese Hiostory is that much of the writing s were destroys wehe nthe Japanese invaded the burns pretty much every book scroll anything tha tthe ycould find so much of the hostorty was memorized and then those people tha tmemorized things also escaped then rewrote the scrolls and teachings

I think its beautful and badass and cool Shaolin Kung Fu. But this is just a movie, not real life. Kung Fu movies is just for entertierment, not realistic. I think if you wanna learn how to fight in REAL Life, but you also wanna learn and experiance the roots of Kung Fu is Sanda or Sanshou. Sanda or Sanshou is very good for fighting, its also have some traditional Kung Fu techniques.

Sanda is an after effect of KUNG FU and is NOT the roots of Kung Fu.

San da is just a sport version of Kung Fu with a set of rules. i.e. you can punch, kick and throw. So yeah, if you are a Kung Fu practitioner who has practiced actual combat application, you should be able to join a San Da competition and do ok. But the moves used by a Kung Fu practitioner in a real fight would probably be quite different to a San Da competition. No gloves means you can grapple and do much more with the hands.

Bruce Lee (Yun Fun) was a halfbreed and was not actually taught by Yip Man himself.
