Thank you so much for the kind words. I am a student for life. I really appreciate it.

I agree 110%!

Thank you very much! I believe in martial arts we are all family.

Btw, I'm originally from Simi Valley!

Thank you very much for your kind words. I am very blessed to have Sifu Lee as my teacher. Thank you for supporting my channel!

Yes I remember you and Andy

@@russelltrabakino1314 Russell? Didn't you drive a Porsche and had a Jeep?

Thanks for watching the video I really appreciate it! No I actually haven't seen any of his DVDs.

First became a disciple of Sifu Chan Pui, northern Shaolin praying mantis in 1990.

@@LouMires The Disney character Mulan was modeled after his daughter, who did the physical movements that the animators overlayed with the cartoon character. Master Chan Pui helped Henry Yee get started in setting up a "formal" school, I believe. Our class used to visit his Wah Lum Temple in Orlando occasionally.

Thanks so much for watching! I am a martial artist that loves good food. You got good eyes to spot the silat on my tshirt. I practice silat southern praying mantis and baguazhang. Thanks for supporting the channel.

thanks for watching! i've actually been practicing more of my circle type steps recently. have a great day!

Awesome! Thank you so much for supporting the channel I really appreciate it! Who is your Sifu? You still practice SPM?

@@AuthenticallyCharles I’ve recently dove back into training SPM. My Sifu is here in St Louis. (Pete Scheers). He learned from SIFU Lee.

Ahh very nice. We are in the same family!

@@AuthenticallyCharles HECKYESSS!!!!! :-)

Thank you so much for subscribing. Its great to see someone who enjoys martial arts content. If you follow me on instagram @authenticallycharles I post a bit more on my personal martial arts practice. I do plan on eventually making some martial arts related content on this channel in the future. More of a documentary style video once I figure out how to do it. thanks again for the support.

@@AuthenticallyCharles that's awesome. I'll give you a follow. You're slowly climbing up my ladder for favorites on KZfaq. Keep it up man!

Thank you. Sifu Lee was GM Henry Poo Yee student.

Gordon Bryce, if you can criticize his performance. The least you could do is post a video and show us he right way how you would do it? Do you even study southern mantis or are you critiquing an art you never studied ? Looking forward to your southern mantis demo on your page doing the same exact form! We are all waiting to see your performance.

@@viperman2454 The main focus of Mantis, as you will be aware, is body shifting , grabbing hands , striking gow choi, and use of the rat step in closing distance. His shock power is good but the other qualities and techniques are less in evidence.For this combination to be successful your weight should drop so that you can maintain speed and stamina. My critique is fair and I recommend the Australian Mantis School for comparison.

@@gordonbryce you are trying to teach this man how to do his own art that he has been doing over 20 years. You can correct me if if I am wrong. But, You do not know his particular mantis style nor have you studied it. If feel like you can critique this mans performance. Then you must be able to do what he is doing even better otherwise you should not be criticizing him and trying to correct him. Forget about this form he was demonstrating because I am guessing you don't know it. Why not make a video demonstrating the same short shock power he was demonstrating. I would be very very impressed if you can even demonstrate 10 percent of this young mans skills you are trying to instruct. Just 10 percent!! If you can demonstrate better than this man I will apologize for calling you out and listen to what ever you have to teach. Because you can back up what you say and teach. 🙏

I love that hashtag!
