One of my favorite videos on youtube. I have hypermobility syndrome and my hips are really hypermobile. I find it difficult to really get into a position that I can feel my hip flexors getting stretched. But this routine does it. I watch it / follow it a few times a month. It has been apart of my fitness journey. Thankyou

Shifu, your joy is contagious!! Loved the video, and I'm pretty sure my stretching will get an upgrade with the techniques you taught.

@o00oZu1o00o 3 жыл бұрын

He's cool, but the way he teaches the front split is not right. If you do it this way, your psoas and quad of the back leg will remain super tight and you will never get to the point where you can rest your rear foot on your shoulders, do natarajasana, the diamond, the scorpion... the split basically becomes a hamstring exercise, waste of time... Apart from that, lovely place and clothes, and the other exercises were fine.

I always find it kind of funny when people believe they have to improve on Shaolin traditions, that have been working for 1500 years.... what you say is totally taken out of context.

Wonderful as always. I can get as far as 10:00 one difficulty I and I think many people have with this is the ankle flexibility. It's impossible for me to do it with the feet pointed directly forward, I have to keep them angled outward, then it's much "easier" (but not *easy*)

Hello Tomas :) take time (Kung Fu is Time) especially you were injuryed its will pay you back for your work. being saying that you can start just little of the movements instead doing same as me or find even simple light stretchings that helps & recovery your injury first when you are recovered and getting stronger then doing more :)

Man... My Pu But stance is trash. I'm pretty sure I'm doing it wrong somewhere but I also noticed that I simple don't have any lower back strength. Even on Ma Bu I have trouble straighting my back, it's like when my muscles are fatigued due excessive work out, you know? They don't work at all... If you see this, Sifu, can you recommend any of your videos so I can work out and get more strength on my lower back?
