Real Chinese martial art and culture :)

Thank you for posting that. I wish more people knew that-the origins of their martial arts.

These guys are falling on a thin mat on top of CONCRETE

The shuai jiao breakfalls I learned mostly involve protecting the head and trying to roll with the throw.

I am actually going for my black belt in this style, its deadly! Shuai Jiao (Chinese Wrestling) is the most ancient of all Chinese martial arts with a history of over 4,000 years. Its first recorded use, in a military engagement, was when the Yellow Emperor of China fought against the rebel Chih Yiu and his army, 2,697 BC. take a look on kuoshu under programs and history for Shuai Jiao.

Every indigenous region has its own version of each aspect of the martial arts. Education goes deeper...

Shaoling has a different origin completely. When Bodhidharma came from India, he taught the monks body strengthening yoga that eventually took on martial art forms. However, this account is under dispute. Either way, Chinese Quanfa (fist method, i.e. martial arts) went to Okinawa. In Japanese, Quanfa is Kenpo. Kenpo combined with indigenous arts to become Karate.

SHuai jiao comes from boke which is mongolian wrestling. Mongolians pride themselves on horse back riding and archery. When the chinese adopted it they took all the archery part.

Kalaripayattu is not the first martial art because the first martial arts are wrestling and boxing that originated in the Middle East. Chinese martial arts were around hundreds of years before Shaolin.

So....judo with weird half gis, katas, and running shoes. And bow and arrow work somewhere in there. AWESOME!

this track is awesome

All time epic and awesomely overdramatic intro to Shuai Jiao ! Makes me want to get after it and go train and knock down a brick wall! 🤣🤣

I was reading into the history of Kung Fu and had never heard of this. It's really neat to see some of these exact techniques are in my own training today. I study hung ga

Shuai Jiao was recorded back in c.2696BCE by Huangdi the Yellow Emperor.

Those arm drags are sick.

Ok, here is the break down of the history. First came Jiao Di. From Jiao Di came Shuai Jiao. From Shuai Jiao came Jujitsu (not directly, there were around 2500 years of development from both Chinese and Japanese martial arts). From Jujitsu came Judo. From Judo came Aikido.

@Maxi358 thanks for the lesson. now i know what influenced jujitsu.

shuaijiao is originated from mongol wrestling, so they use the bow as part of traditional training

shuai jiao is the mother of chinese kung fu...the mongols influenced the chinese and vice versa and yes, chinese traders and missionaries taught japanese their version of "chinese boxing". the samurais adopted and modified it. this system is known as jiu-jitsu etc... "shaolin is home to all chinese martial arts."- i do believe in this proverb since chan-buddhism contributed a lot to the spread of unarmed hand to hand combat.

God this is good. I didn't have the patience to learn it alongside wrestling, but it's amazing.

that's real kung Fu ! wrestlers and Judoka could learn something from this.(some already have)

To anyone interested in Shuai Jiao, look up Sifu Chang Tung Sheng and observe his videos.

this looks absolutely awesome. im training in san shou, bjj, and judo; but the san shou class doesnt go over much of this stuff. tho it looks similar, i think shuai jiao is much more practical than judo cuz judo relies a lot on the gi...and nowadays most ppl, japanese or not, dont wear those nemore.

This looks like a lot of fun. From a layman's perspective, it looks similar to judo and hapkido, with unique moves as well.

man that song! so inspiring! all what was needed was a hawk to fly by dramaticaly! i want to train in this form!

Wow Ive never done this or heard of this but judging by what I saw it has very impressive technique and forms.

I knew it! Chinese did have Wrestlin Kung FU! Now if someone proves this in the UFC it can become popular x_X

well as a practitioner of this martial art... if u actually put too much force into ur moves u will end up wasting energy and wear out, but if u keep relaxed and use your head and think about the principles of leverage you will find urself a way to escape or submit ur opponent, thats why its called Gentle or soft art

I want to see one of these guys go to the olympics against the judo guys. that would be interesting

@RichardRee Actually Wong Fei Hung was a traditional doctor, acupuncturist, and a revolutionist against the Qing Dynasty.

It comes. Kalaripayattu was the first martial art in the world but then buddhist monk, the great Bodhidarma bringed it to china to zen temple and then we know what came with that: a kung fu.

Otherwise, it's nice to see that the Chinese have a throwing/grappling style. I had always thought their arts were stand up and, strike. But then all I've ever seen were the Kung Fu movies. Grappling is great!

@GuitarDestroyer77777 Technically speaking, shuai jiao is credited with influencing part of the development of early jujutsu. judo is derived from the less dangerous techniques of Tenjin Shinyo-ryu and Kito-ryu jujutsu.

@evanjb92 That is because there are only so many ways the human body can move and fight unarmed. All fighting styles have some amount of convergence. For example, there is this ancient Greek martial art called Pankration where one of the moves is almost exactly the same as the judo tomoe nage.

Shuai jiao was a fighting skill taught to the Chinese imperial army. So it is supposed to be used in real battle. You take down your enemy, then he is dead because you or your comrade can cut him with knife.

The first martial art ever created in fighting form was Pankration from the Greeks. It branched out all over the world until it's reformation in MMA.

It's from the "Once Upon A Time In China" (a.k.a. Wong Fei Hung) soundtrack, if that's any help.

pretty much the same... and as I've read, this is first martial art of human kind.

Very Good

perfect

punching, kicking, throwing. . . you can create as many named styles as you want, but in the end, there are only so many ways to kick and punch and throw people.

i do the chinese wrestling and i love it

Well, most of the striking crafts might had came from kalaripayattu, but shuai jiao, never, because every culture's fighting craft would start out as a wrestling/grappling style.

@Maxi358 Hey how is Shuai Jiao? Is it good for self defense on the street and for protecting your self or is it more for sport?

Id like to see these guys match up against judo practitioners, that would be fun to watch.

very good

Great Wong Fei Hong cover

Not only the moves, but the music is also great. Can I buy at any store? What´s the name of this song? Thanks.

You are wrong. The Indian monk Bodhidharma travelled to China and taught the Shaolin monks several forms of physical training, because they would fall asleep during meditation. Even though the origins of Chinese martial arts date back a few thousand years, the real thing was developed after Bodhidharma by the Shaolin monks.

there is a school of thought that says alexander the great took pancrease to the far east with his empire, it was lost in the west and developed into the eastern arts of today

Not very well known in China, too. It is hard to find a school of CMA even in big Chinese cities. I only found some good in Beijing and Shanghai. In other parts of the country they only teach Taekwondo.

A throw is a throw. The end.

Muito bom vídeo.. também fizemos um aqui no Brasil

To anybody who cares too much about "roots": The techniques derive from physical laws, and we humans have a brain, which gives us the ability to find out how to throw a person on our own, without going to a foreign country.

@Maxi358 what's the difference between those four divisions

cool techniques but what does the editor have against showing a whole throw?

In a sport match, in Shuai Jiao, yes. In this video, the guy keeps going for a single leg takedown. In China it's called hugging the leg, because you "hug" the leg. watch?v=-3e_9h3JHfI

If the Gracies were to find out about shuai jiao in their early years when they were challenging other martial art schools, they would had been crushed by them.

@EletmenticAzn it's a warm-up exercise if they didn't do it, they would possibly harm themselves when throwing others to the floor

quote it please because i can't find it.

from research earliest known martial art in the world.

I NEED TO KNOW SONG NAME.

@Maxi358 I've trained in both as well as Judo and catch wrestling. Of all those I would rate BJJ as the least useful in a real life encounter. That's not to say it's useless but in my experience I've found myself falling back on my other training when I've had to use it. BJJ is great as long as ou can sucker your opponent into taking you to the ground and wanting to stay there.

cool

actually... it may very well might have. I saw some ancient indian martial arts styles that have some similarities to shaolin kung fu, lama pai kung fu, and muay boron ect. These arts share alot in common and could have had a common ancestory from india.

Anyone know any Chinese martial arts movies that has Shuai Jiao in it?

El Shuai Jiao es mucho más antiguo que el JUDO, de hecho sus origenes estarían en Mongolia y de ahí pasarían a China, siendo la primera forma de arte marcial conocido en China (Anterior a Shaolin y Tamo). Se ve más limpio porque es un video promocional, nada más

cool looks a lot like judo doe it have a good ground game

@hmasias : gracias por la respuesta, aveces esta uno mal informado... gracias otra vez, saludos

song name pls?

Wow

supongo que es la version china del judo. pero: ¿porque la técnica se ve mucho mas limpia?

SONG NAME PLEASE

were can i find the song? what is the name of this song?

Very true.

oh... finally i know where the judo and jiu jitsu come from...it came to japan with the chinese..:)

I am not talking about small groups of monks i am talking about the bigger picture.

@Reido2828: it works great! I've used it a couple of times and I have yet to encounter someone who actually gets up! There are self defense and sport versions but both work well! ~Maxi358

I don't get your point. Shuai Jiao also came from somewhere... Mongolian wrestling. Besides, you might like the model T-Ford, but I will take the F-150. Grappling has evolved, and has been improved and refined as time goes on.

lol. Well my guess is why he onsluaghted the Japanese guy was because of *ahem* the things Japan did to China during the WW2 era. As for Thais, it was said that Muay Thai was the only ALIVE fighting eastern martial art. So, thats why a lot of westerners take it and say "BJJ AND Muay Thai is the best combo". Of course Liu Hailong disproves it.

the cinder block training seems very simmilar to kettlebell training

yeah like in the art of war fc or something like that

Has Liu Hailong fought anyone trained in both BJJ and Muay Thai in a MMA style tournament? If not, how does he disprove that this combo is not the best?

Ah, my kung fu school is adding shuai jiao into the fighters' curriculum. Hurray! :D Throwing people is fun.

@redlycan1978 its equally suitable they did a magazin article about a shua jiao jguy going in to mma

pangyf, judo and bjj are based off of samurai ju jutsu which is, like shuai jiao, thousands of years old...

No, you're the one who's wrong because there were a small amount of monks that already knew physical training because they originally soldiers of the Chinese army.

can you attack the legs and use clinch takedowns? i think that u cant in judo is one of itsbiggest flaws

So Liu Hailong has never fought someone trained in the combination of Muay Thai and BJJ, has he? As for Cung "I want to be a movie star" Le, he is also trained in BJJ and wrestling. At least he seems to understand what it takes to be a successful fighter today.

welli doubt that shuai jiao fighters like these one could learn from sports arts like judo etc. it`s a complete art and chang`s baoding style even contains striking and so on.

yes

i agree but you can tell there different

it's called "on the general's orders" but it is not colloquially referred to as "wong fei hung." Named after a historical Chinese actor/doctor/everything else and folk hero. kidna like how a kleenex is now a tissue.

Calm down babeh =O

@Bournetolive agreed, just like Bruce Lee said, there is no such thing as Chinese, Japanese or Western way of fighting since all humans regardless of race are physically same (2 hands, 2 legs etc). In the end we are just utilizing the most of our body :)

@risingsun08107 that's true, however, technique does matter, fighting is very deep, more than just punching and kicking, anyone can throw a punch or a kick, without proper technique you only use a small fraction of your current power, Martial Arts takes a lot of physical and mental conditioning, which you don't see any more sadly, in America at least, the moments before a fight can greatly influence the outcome, it really just depends, but I know for a fact that combat runs deep

@Maxi358 There really should be NO doubt that jujitsu was influenced by Shuai Jiao and Chi Na just as Karate was influenced by other forms of Chinese martial arts and many other aspects of Japanese culture. I find people want to argue this mainly because they think if jujitsu was influenced by Shuai Jiao, that some how makes it less Japanese or less its own martial art. This simply isn't true. That'd be like saying Germany isn't original because it uses the Roman alphabet. Well, my 2 cents.

@TheAikidoBoy: Not a problem man!

Again, you'd have to read the forum, which is where the artist stated fighting a guy of both styles. But you don't seem to understand that. Like deathclok said, Liu claimed to have apparently fought some mixed martial artist who did the two, and beat them. Vid maybe somewhere, but who the fighter was I don't know. I've told you this a dozen times. You don't seem to grasp it, do you?
