Shi Hung Yi seems like a good teacher. I like how he explains the biomechanics of stances and rooting where many others would explain away this skill with Kungfu buzzwords like qi or fa jin. That’s very important to pedagogy since learning something requires the student to first see that is possible.

They are not kung-fu "buzzwords", they are real conceptual frameworks with extreme depth that just gets hollowed out when Westerners start defining these systems according to their own framework, not understanding that they are colonizing alternative knowledge forms and imposing their own western understanding onto these frameworks which have their own completely different way of looking at things. In this way, the "real thing" the "real idea of kung fu" gets destroyed and distorted. Thanks!

Listening to the master talk about tearing down the old to make new again, destruction, their relationship to pain; that section almost brought me to tears, just the wisdom of his words and teachings and deep understanding of the martial arts was beautiful. As a long time student of a Japanese martial art that a large section of it comes straight from China, a lot of what he was saying makes perfect sense to me. I enjoyed this video more so than any of your other videos I've seen thus far. The other one that comes close was when you trained in full yoroi armor with Dr Kacem Zoughari.

I was quite surprised by Shaolin ma bu. The method of tucking in the tail bone/pelvis and rounding the back/sinking the chest, dropping the elbows, relaxing the muscles is exactly the method of most Chinese internal martial arts.

Thank you very much! Absolutely priceless!
This started as just another shallow Discovery channel overview and got rather profound towards the end. Kudos to you, Jesse, for including that part and translating the confusion of a pupil who struggles with the information a bit 👍 As an internal style practitioner, for me styles like Shaolin and GoJiuRyu are on the opposite, most external side of the traditional kung fu spectrum. So it's always fascinating to hear the masters of these schools explain internal mechanics in a way that is rather similar to our own.
Jesse: As an older martial artist who studies shotokan and shorin ryu, i really like the explanation here. Particularly the circular movements sir. The rooting which your teacher describers makes perfect sense from a karate standpoint. Thanks.

At least not in an official monastery, yet he told people he did and that he trains in official matter. After a warning and a law process against them (its a group), they stopped, after years after the scandal he now is more present than ever (in germany it was a big shaolin scandal, being in the newspaper and so on). He doesnt practice shaolin like shaolin masters do and is not near the level of a shaolin. Please dont let this man destroy buddhism. Inform yourself! I suggest everyone to read „shaolin the bodhi path of bodhidharma“ you can google his and read what real shaolin is about. Amithaba 🙏
I think your videos are beautiful, great combination of curiousness, respect and yet good camera work and story!
Great Channel and superb video! I trained karate as a kid, my Sensei gave an emphasis on strike control and stances. It really helped me a lot in mya martial arts training through out my life. As an teenager I begin training Aikido focusing on self-defense, it changed everything and gave me a expanded view of a true life and death situation. After some time I found a traditional Shaolin Kung Fu Master and begin my training with him. Everything that I thought I knew were useful, but lacked that kind of refinement show in your video.
Amazing how such a relatively young master has zero extraneous tension! Amazing. Wise words to remember too. 🙏

@@KARATEbyJesse Very true
Your ability to show humility and respect, with a great spirit is infectious. Dang, that stance thing gives an existential crisis man.... it makes sense though, we are connected to the earth, nothing is behind us, there is only below. We can let force curl downward like a wave. That moment you experienced after is uncomfortable, but critical. A piece of you was given up, and something blossomed in its absence.
Love your videos. Fun and informative. Great to see more than the fighting and self defence aspects - mindfulness, temperament, integration etc that exists in the spectrum of martial arts.

Thanks for watching!
Deep - truly enlightening and great to see such control, even when he speaks. This was beautiful.
I think what I appreciate most in your videos is the humility with which you approach everything and everyone. A great student becomes a great teacher and vice versa.
That's why i love watching shaolin kungfu and karate videos it's not just about the fights but also the meaning, the whole culture behind them I guess i am also a nerd now lol
Amazing how smooth he is, both in thought and movement.
The master is so good. He explains it so well and so beautifully. He has also conquered a mastery, persuasive speech style.
I had a master here in Italy who shows every day these exact concepts and much more. Taichi Chen. What a beautiful gift to find masters who really know such differences. I feel lucky for this because I practiced for 10 years and I saw many talking about taichi and not knowing anything of the real energy. Many times you can hear people talking about qi, energy, in such way that it seems something magical. It is not, it is structure, training, a lot of training. There's no energy without lot of work with the right directions
Finally, a video from you Sensei Jesse that touches me! I am a student of JKA Karate and have watched many of your videos. Sifu's art is beautiful, elegant and strangely quiet. I would have LOVED to become a student of his. (I am South African so not much chance of that happening.) The moment that touched me was when you said "not now...". Clearly, time to reevaluate what you have been doing all these years. I feel the same, what have I been doing all these years? I can tell you one thing though, when I go to dojo later today, my attitude will be different. Much respect!

His name is Shi Heng Yi and Sifu is his title as the head master or am I mistaken ?
The Taint Uppercut is by far the best move Jesse has ever learned. Nothing comes close.
