A quick article explaining and pointing out the differences between Internal & External Kung Fu ➞ bit.ly/internal-vs-external-kung-fu All courses by the grandmaster ➞ WarriorNeigong.com

I watched you videos, I practiced for 30 years now, Impressive background but as we are the same age, what is impressive is your physical habilities and your global understanding of fighting and of your art. Above all, your kindness, calm and smille are the real qualities of a great master. All my admiration from France

Thank you for having discussions around chinese martial arts. My hun yuan chenstyle tai chi and qi gong movement sets that i learned in my 20s have kept my body healthy for rolling in jujitsu. Spiral sanju jin. Very very good for opening the hios and waist and joints. Keep sharing the knowledge.

According to the reference I read, the Dai Family's Kung Fu is called Xin -Yi Quan (心意拳）, which literally means "Heart-Mind Fist". The Kung Fu Lee Luo-Neng developed based on the Dai Family's Kung Fu is called Xing-Yi Quan (形意拳） which literally means "Shape-Mind Fist". Xin -Yi Quan (心意拳）was firstly invented by a master called Ji, long-feng based on a manual written by a warlord called Yue-fei (March 24, 1103 - January 28, 1142). Ji then shared Xin -Yi Quan (心意拳） with the Shao-lin monks. The monks then modified his kung fu and called this modified version as Xin-Yi Ba （心意把）, which as master Jiang Yu-shan said is known as the most powerful and the highest ranking martial art of the Shao-Lin Temple.

Thank you very much for this, because since your first video about Kung Fu on this yt channel, when I saw these moves which are completely different than what I had seen before in my whole life, I was so impressed and shocked and I immediately saw unbelievable potential in those moves, even as an observer with no experience in fighting/martial arts practice, I mean the energy behind those moves and the explosiveness and so much more, that I immediately started to search for anything that would have even just pieces and would be in at least some way similar to what is in your Kung Fu videos here, trying to put it all together, first as an observer myself, to connect the dots, even as an enthusiast or maybe a person passionate about #movementculture in general, and, to be honest, I have been searching for more and more interesting examples of such moves from the martial arts world ever since, pretty much every single day [or night!], kinda relentlessly trying to figure out even like the main principles/mechanics, even just by observing first, before the practice, and all I can say is that it has been a REALLY fascinating journey so far, you know - like autodidactics through observation first, maybe later imitation, etc., I hope - and then with every single next Kung Fu video here [and the absolutely hard to believe #timing..] I was getting more and more interested in understanding these methods as another way/means/tool thanks to which I can become a better and better version of myself in general, a better person, a better being.. and.. all I really want to say is.. Thank you! Thank you for doing what you do, because it has and is influencing my life in a very very positive way and it helps me understand and try to imagine how much there is that I actually don't understand or know! And this is very precious, because it sets a person in a very good position to actually start learning :) Thank you! Very inspiring, very motivating, very humbling! I will never forget that after all these years, finally, I began my journey with martial arts thanks to you and your videos! Love&Light! Misha from #parkouredukacja

Thank you very much for sharing. It really is a very enlightening talk. The Grandmaster clarifies many dark points in the transmission of the Xin Yi Ba systems and the true meaning and origin of their variants. Please keep sharing!

So happy I subbed. Thank you for this video. Very, very good. The knowledge is humble and staggering.

I once heard a very winning surfer say that practicing meditation allowed him to perform intense physical activity, while maintaining a very calm state of mind. That’s how I understand internal kungfu… half the fight is in your mind.

Your teacher reminds me of my teacher. So much knowledge but so humble and peaceful with a playful sense of humour 🙏

Thank you for the lineage that you give out of this very interesting..

Yeah I got everyone of these. These are amazing. When will we be receiving more material?? I'd happily buy more of them.

such an interesting lesson in kung fu, master Jiang is such an interesting person. I could listen to him talking about the history for hours. i would love to see his thoughts about the other styles, like mantis and crane, and compare them with the monkey style. thank you for bringing this amazing content and keep up the amazing work.

Revealing a person's life background in front of "the public" is ALWAYS a risky business ... Stupid people tend to "use" everythig to discredit ,,, haters are far more than correct poeple...sadly

Can you do a video on how he trains how iron palm? I dont think ive seen him using any type of bag.

I have never heard the history like he gives it the Chinese history in that the Dynasty is that were in China at the time very interesting divulging the history is important dissecting it to what you need in it is the most important.. thank you

The ultimate purpose of internal kung fu comes down to this: It enables one to transcend his/her physical limitations - meaning a smaller or weaker built person can overcome opponents who are physically much heavier and stronger. We do this by tapping into and utilizing a different system of power and body mechanics that today's science hasn't really looked into. And to develop this internal system in you, you have to become aware of your body and mind, getting in touch with the core of your being - your Jing, Qi, Shen as coined by Daoists. This is why as you get further into the practise, it becomes much more than just a fighting skill, and it transform you in incredible ways. That said, the fighting skill needs to be always there in order to truly go down this path, and internal force and its effects can be expressed and tested. Hardening is one aspect of internal strength or Neizhuang, but it's different to Neijin, internal force. When it comes to internal force for combat, the basic three energies need to be present: long energy, listening energy, and short energy. There are of course the highest level energies like light energy and all-sensing energy, as described by internal scriptures, but after seeking out masters in China during my 10 years living there, and having watched hundreds of videos of internal practitioners demonstrate their abilities, I've still yet to see anybody display the highest level. This is one of the important reasons I've started to make videos myself, to showcase the 3 internal forces mentioned, so that seekers of the internal path can engage and exchange to potentially work toward the higher level together.

Wow, exactly what I wanted! Stories about the real history of martial arts. I need MORE!! :)) Thank You Sifu Jiang and VAHVA team.

Fascinating conversation! Enjoyed and learned so much. Thanks.

May i ask, if you can share instruction to practise a correct iron palm? What kind of medicine is needed? And how to apply it? I think im in the class of those who has always done it incorrectly...

VAHVA Fitness i have decided to choose wing chun and sanda because there good and effective for self defense and fighting and work in mma but i have decided to choose sanda

any information on Bear style Kung Fu ? I have heard a variety of things including Eagle style is called Bear style when a bigger person does it, that there is no style related to bears but some exercise modeled after how they move and that there is a verified style that they researched to make Kung Fu Panda....I dislike conflicting info lol

hey man, would you mind asking the Grand master and share with us, some online resource about the origins of those eastern tradition martial arts etc. I really want to learn more about the culture of those ancient people over there in the Chinese region. Hope to hear back from you

Excellent video. He talks about what I usually say as well. Great job.

Great job. Thanks for sharing loads of good wisdoms

Thanks a lot! Great chat.

How do you strengthen hands for striking?

How does Baguazhang fit in to the lineage ??

Knowledge and wisdom! Much appreciated!

His movement are amazing. softly and powerful.

I trained northern shaolin and then 7 star praying mantis when young. Then I trained with Hungi Shiang's hsingi - bagua lineage, then Lo De Shui's bagua. So my sifus that trained in Taiwan had video of a guy they called "the monkey man". I don't know his Chinese name, but he was a small man, but these guys were hurting their hands striking his lower Dan tien. I'm curious if your monkey door kung fu came from him. If so, can you talk about him????

Thanks for real cool video. Do you guys heard of 大聖門 Tai Shin Mun monkey kung fu and how is it related in the history tree did it also come from Dai family.

Can the master talk about Bruce Lee in the up coming episode? His techniques, his ideas, thinking...etc...

One thing I like about this guy he's a realist the real thing in the street giving you the the realistic approach... it's like when I travel to Colombia in South America and to meet people who try to challenge you with Kung Fu who don't really know it they do fancy kicks but what if somebody's keeps you out from the other leg and put you down on the ground and then they're on top of you that's something I learned over there really quick some people like to challenge you just because you're a foreigner but like he said you don't want to take it too far ahead you do that people will disrespect you cuz you're not part of their people or culture... but it is a dangerous country I spent nine years going back and forth of there and I did learn their language and I still speak it today Spanish is pretty easy I think but a lot of people can't learn it it's hard to read and write it for some people it wasn't that hard for me I think that coming to a Crossroads in my life where I start to see the things that I need at 51 but I didn't ever think I'd be in this kind of shape I've never drank and smoked ...

When I finish saving, I'm trying to decide if I want to do the Qigong course or the Monkey style course. This is amazing!

how can I learn hadooken?

what federation /association / board gave him the "9th dan"?

Sifu Mark Rasmus talks about internal power. He is pretty intense, and many times I don't understand what he is talking about.

Excellent video. I'd be curious his thoughts on Wu Gu Luns Xin Yi Ba lineage and where that fits in with the transmission history. Cheers

Medicine AFTER Conditioning... damn...no one has ever told me that... when (more than 20yrs ago) I was practicing Thai Boxing and Kick Boxing, I made a lot of leg conditioning...Really a lot...same thing when I was a student of Shin Dae Wong master ( pakua and tang lang kung fu from Korea), I almost break my arms training without medicines... ONLY now I have the confirmation that was a wrong and incomplete way of learning... SO SAD... Thank you ... now I have a son, and I want to have something Right and Good to teach Him... Makiwara in shotokan for years...also that... and I Stopped because it was more a damage for me than the benefits for my learning path

徐晓东师父也是练传统功夫的… Xu Xiaodong's teacher (Master) also practices traditional Kung Fu…

Is there any training anyone heard about to connect your body and mind? Being oneness... what if its floating on a boat, in the water, learning to feel the waves or something as you move around a very flimsy boat, doing kung fu movements, practicing balance and feel your surroundings. Or Maybe something else. How would you train this secret, hidden technique

thank you Eero Thank you Mister Master Hisham

People still asking what style are the best , the best is military style , instant kill moves , no mercy and no rules , hit every weak point , problem of this style is you can end up in jail because you killed someone

When I was in martial arts here and you start out here in karate or whatever Taekwondo they try to keep you in a long. Of time $$ of your training and training in training but by the time you get to where you're going and it's in the same thing about trophy..and then people say what if you learn the things this guy's teaching you do end up killing somebody that's not true! because when I went to Colombia., I learned what Kung Fu was and I had already had Street technique coming with me so when I find somebody with a fancy kick you got their other leg. Or sweep.. that they got to stand on to get that fancy kick up there you just got to be able to see it coming.. I'd say you got to be ready for anything that's why I like studying under someone like this who thinks that way I would say it's a mindset survival that's what martial arts was designed to be in the first place because you haven't had oppressive governments who got in the way of the people that were there and disarm them and then you say had no other choice but to have some sort of martial arts to defend themself if people lost sight of that and think this is a game... it's not some video game this is real life and this man offers the way out of the world that we see on a television or on KZfaq to the real thing that you have to learn in life to be prepared for anything give you enough discipline to walk you through different points of your life and that's where I'm at now at 51 I think it's important to be like that.. this is my observation...

I’m in!

I dont want to discredit him but i just want to point out that the taiji bagua etc have a different definition of internal skills. It is based on the daoism principle of 天地人 so heaven-men-earth. So u are trying to develop song and with song comes jing so force. Calmnes averness etc come as side effect automatically if u train it

ach ja: KLASSE VIDEO.

It's amazing that this guy speaks German, Chinese and English. All very different languages. It shows he is very smart.

Chinese masters have a "chinese style" pedagogy, which is why you may not understand the way they convey information to you. Westerners are in the speculative way and wait for everything to be explained to them - and I don't think that was even the case in ancient Europe (ex : companionship) - The masters of the traditional style have remained in the ancient transmission : it is the meaning of "traditional" ... A true master knows what the disciple needs to know, and it is for the latter to develop on this basis, and to find by himself, because only an experienced knowledge is a TRUE knowledge (in French : knowledge= Co-naissance = to born with) ... So if you don't understand this pedagogy you can believe that "he hides"... He hides nothing to you that you cannot already find by yourself... What is more, why the masters would want to cover up secular disciplines which disappear for lack of dedicated practitioners ? (practicing neijia for 18 years, Baguazhang, Shi ji Dong direct lineage)

External focuses on external conditioning, such as bone hardening, body building, stamina. Internal focus on mental works, such as concentration, similar to witchcraft. Moving Qi Gong is lower level of static Qi Gong meditation which is pure mental work. I consider reflex training such as speed bag to be Internal, it conditions neuron system. Kendo is also internal as Zen is integrated part of Kendo to develop super reflex.

I think the shaolin temple was helped to be rebuilt after it was destroyed by a master from India. Am I right? This is so interesting because it helps to understand how it was in the old days in China.

On the internal vs external comparison, I have been doing martial arts since the late 1980's. I have dabbled in a lot of systems. I have had a lot of teachers. In comparison, the internal and external styles share most of all the same qualities (relaxation, softness, alignment etc...). Even most of the body mechanics are shared. The ONLY difference I can see, is that the internal arts include the Dantien in its bio mechanical power generation. This is accomplished in either an expansion/contraction, accordion like motion, or in a compressing/coiling, explosive release kind of power generation. It can also be done in the upper back. That's it. Everything else is present in everything.

The Vahva guy should've used what the master says instead of trying to market it....it would've came out better

I wish to study with you, Sifu

health & fighting neigong soft & hard qi gong internal & external transform

Pretty sure 'internal' styles refers to those of Chinese origin, like wu dang arts, whilst 'external' refers to those brought in from India originally and elsewhere, like Shaolin styles?

Wang said that the best martail artist he met was Wu Wui Hui

To add , I was able to get out of situations. Thank God, thank, Sifu Nelson Chan of Wha-lum , Northern Praying Mantis. ( no pads , black eyes, broken ribs . ) this was a choice.

The. Bjj competitions is sport with a lot of rules. It is not about fighting. To use bjj for serious fighting you need other skills, but everyone knows that.

This man had a St Paul conversion

Where do he orginally came from? India?

A very impressive master indeed, in spite of his humility his power and intelligence shine through. I think his mixed German-Arabic background has gifted him in that area, but I have a feeling that he is a repository of a lot more knowledge that he presents here...One can also sense that he is talking from hands-on experience.

Much love, in the past I was in a fighting Kung- fu school. ( not a false sense of confidence. ) that is really important if you join a fighting school. Also, be aware, martia 44:16 l arts geeks . They think the art they are in is the best .. .Do not f- with real Monkey style, is no joke . Ok, just for example, meet a free hand rock climber and ask them to grab your forearm.

I think it is related to our western mindset to judge martial arts for its practicality on "smashing peoples face",specially with this UFC fever going on. You really dont need to be versed in martial arts to punch someone in the face,its helps but its not required.And to think that you pratice MA just to punch someone is reducing thousands of years of tradition, all the non combative benefects of MA to something that isnt really the point of it.Not everyone train to be a killing machine,some people just want to follow the "do" part of a MA.

wie alt bist Du eigentlich Hisham ? Oder ist diese Frage zu persönlich ?? Ich bin fast 70 !!!

The conversation about LuSong the Master of Muslim Kungfu remained incomplete,how the lineage of Dao family is different from Muslim kungfu, The four hammer belong to which lineage?

Vin Diesel Master Kung Fu 😱

This is sooooooooooooooo true

Muốn làm đệ tử của Ngộ Không ?!.

Asked him one question and he talked about something else... Not interested....or willing to watch for another hour to see if he answers... The link to Internal v external is BS...

Good techer good Kong fu

If one wish to challenge, don't bring camera. Challenge them in private. Esse quam videri... To be rather than to be seen. If one wish to test themselves, they did it not for the purpose so others can see it. With the culture this so called social media era, many people do things only to be seen not to be. Challenge with respect. To be martial artist than to be seen as martial artist. Thank you for sharing your Kungfu sir, I very much obliged. Gin,

also VAHVA Fitness you should check out sanda is a mix of shaolin kung fu,wushu and other stuff it is like the best self defence and fighting kung fu style again better and more effective than wing chun and shaolin kung fu and works in mma

J aimerai bien les voir en vrai combat ça m'a l'air pipo

The blonde one has minimal interview skill. Observation; do not interject. A written list of questions should be followed. Please use split screen instead of switching back and forth. There is no interest in the interviewer.

Bruce lee in the later times did not believe in different styles.

What this great grandmaster is saying .It's all based on quality of what you know not quantity.There certainly is fake martial arts masters.

oO we germans lost a great person here
