@@mustafaIZpodrinja that’s what your other hand is for. For protecting in situations such as that.

Marlon Vera pulled this off and finished his choke on the ground in his fight off of a slip, it's not a bullshit technique just rarely applicable compared to the fundamentals

Is that you with the first round KO? 😂

@@rodgerhempfing2921 yes it will. I have done it many times before. This is a demonstration of techniques which means it will be shown step by step. Applications show movements clearly for learning purposes. In fighting the movements are less clean, but still work.

if this had any applications it would've been used in UFC fights already.

​@@coycenit is similar to mawashi uke in karate so it has its function. It is a no gloves technique.

@@Muhammad13389 at the present time, I have some in depth lessons in drunken boxing available in my online classes via Patreon available here: www.patreon.com/rjmamchenry There are also lessons in drunken boxing movements in my latest series “Martial Poetry.” Movements from various styles are covered including our Ma family drunken boxing. Link to the playlist is here: ruclips.net/p/PLlLvXVslePcAfRdXqF6LpztDG1fL-_SRe&si=VgTqfkfnAUyvYztP I can also consider adding more lessons to the channel, but I cannot guarantee on when they will be available. The best bet for right now would be to take advantage of what is currently available in my online classes. I hope this helps.

@@tacolover5000 I’ll see about investing in one. Thanks for the suggestion.

@@mrvgranfield I have a sword and tassel at home. I keep wooden ones around in my school for weapon sparring purposes.

​@@redjademartialartsofmchenryI thought the tassel was to soak up blood, in the good old days.

@@rodgerhempfing2921 certainly. Too much blood exposure leads to a rusty sword. Good to have a handy tassel to dry it off

@@saberserpent1134 I’m totally in. I’d love to do so. I still have you in messenger, we can discuss more details there. This should be a fun time.

@@redjademartialartsofmchenry Excellent! I look forward to working with you and your group!!

Do you also practice white crane Qi gong by any chance?

@@rodgerhempfing2921 it is a form I made myself based on my own experiences weapon sparring as well as including all the key techniques and drills. Though it’s length is largely due to the second half being the same form, but with the sword in the other hand. I don’t practice a specific white crane qigong, but we do have a small system of crane boxing within our Ma family Kung fu.

I did notice you switched hands, very non Eastern.

@@rodgerhempfing2921 it’s actually a secret method in some of the eastern swordsmanship I learned. In forms there were hand movements to represent switching hands, but the form would carry on without doing so. I suspect this was done as a sort of acknowledgment to an unorthodox tactic of switching hands while wishing not to show off the secret to any rivals that might be watching. We were given some hand switching drills to make it fluid and taught all the moments switches were implied.

​@@redjademartialartsofmchenry Switching hands is something I've used efficaciously in actual steel tournaments. If practiced smoothly, it can absolutely score points on same side openings.

@@davidbarnwell6180 that’s exactly it. In Chinese arts, distinguishing between grappling and striking was more a modern phenomenon. Before it was said there are 4 aspects of Chinese arts, Da(hitting), Ti(kicking), Shuai(wrestling/throwing),and Qin na(locking/acupoints Striking). While some arts may prefer one of these methods over others, all 4 still make up the art. And with the constant adherence, there is non-stop pressure on the opponent. Never allowing them a chance to “reset.”

@@redjademartialartsofmchenry Thanks. Yeah, that is what I thought. Your video clarifies so much.

@@davidbarnwell6180 I’m glad it is helpful to you

This would be the grapplers approach to chi sau but there are many other types for example in kung fu there is no limit on adversaries multiple fighters so in a massive brawl depending on it severity (one solution blows) are the recommended solution. Grappling is in that circumstance not a recommended approach as you would get badly cut maimed or killed as it takes to much time and energy and is way to vulnerable while fighting, but is fine one on one .

@@mrvgranfield many associate the word grappling with wraps and locks and while it is that, it isn’t limited to that. Simple single throws are a part of it as well. This sticky hands exercise is about building sensitivity and swarming/sticking ability while fighting. It would apply the same to multiple opponent situations. The only difference is the weaving in and out of opponents and changing who you are sticking to at any given moment. As the video is presenting it in a one on one scenario and not showing how it would be done with multiple opponents, it is understandable that there would be misunderstandings about its application to multiple opponents. But we have to understand that the idea that this is solely for one on one is a misunderstanding. About grappling in multiple opponent fights, grappling is extremely effective, but not in the way some might understand grappling as being “entangled” with an opponent. Our Cheng style Baguazhang for example covers this well. It is essentially a wrestling style on wheels. Running and weaving footwork with quick, nasty throws. It’s approach to multiple opponents is to use its weaving footwork to get to the outer edge of the group and throw down the opponents one by one, continuing to weave to the outside so that we are only ever engaging one at a time. Considering that the earth is a non forgiving weapon when being thrown onto it, for many it will damage and take them time to get back up. In the time that one gets up, another is thrown.

@@rodgerhempfing2921 in the next 5 episodes I have planned out, we will be doing another Yang Taiji movement. The applications video will follow once these 5 episodes are released.

@@rodgerhempfing2921 it is also a popular Bajiquan movement. I like to see how so many various styles have so much crossover.

@@rodgerhempfing2921 I practice a golden lotus meditation, but I think it is different from what you are describing. Though I practice 18 Lohan Qigong which does have martial applications. It is a version of what is believed to be one of the three exercises Damo taught at the shaolin temple. It is a qigong system that also is a martial art. Though the emphasis is on it as a health practice.

@@redjademartialartsofmchenry do you post videos of those applications?

@@rodgerhempfing2921 the first of the applications videos associated with the Martial Poetry series has one. “Lohan dawns the robe”

@@redjademartialartsofmchenry yes, saw that

@@rodgerhempfing2921 I’ve had a lot of luck in this regard. I’ve had three Chinese martial arts teachers that I officially/formally trained under as well as quite a few teachers I’ve met under less formal means. It was due to all these experiences that I came to train so many systems.

Thanks, I am practicing Yang 108 at the moment, not old Yang.

@@rodgerhempfing2921 the Lohan hand from our 18lohan qigong system is officially named the ox tongue palm. It is named this because of how the palm engages the meat on the palm and how it resembles the thick tongue of an ox. The application of it in a qigong sense is in closing off Lao Gong acupoint in the palms to trap the Qi at the palms to build up heat in the hands. The fighting application of this hand shape is that the positioning of the hand thickens then meat around the palm for impact. It is to reinforce the palm so that it doesn’t break upon heavy impacts

​@@redjademartialartsofmchenryI thought the index finger targeted the stomach 9 point in the neck, good to know your explanation.

@@rodgerhempfing2921 not on the channel yet. These applications videos are follow up videos covering the applications of movements that have been covered in an episode of my Martial Poetry series. Cloud hands hasn’t been covered yet, but it is inevitable that I will cover it in the future as it is definitely on my list of moves to cover.

​@@redjademartialartsofmchenrythanks.

@@rodgerhempfing2921 you’re very welcome! I’m glad you benefited from it.

@@moepanetta9028 it absolutely can. This context takes reincarnation to be “transformation.” Like shape-shifting. It promotes the idea of clean and smooth transition from shape to shape or technique to technique. Many talk about correcting the shapes and the postures, but the majority of Kung fu exists within the transition moments from move to move. So absolutely is can be applied to Pak Hok Pai.

@@redjademartialartsofmchenry thanks so much for the warm reply, I am now subscriber.

@@Simplygungfu me too. Line drills make up about 80% of my technique/form practice right now.

@@saberserpent1134 I think I got mine from eBay. I don’t remember the seller. But they sold per ring. One piece of advice I wish I had before though is to make sure the size of the rings are good for your hands and wrists. I bought a bunch and realized very quickly that with their size and my small wrists that a single punch would have them fly off. So it is good to get a pair of a smaller size to use as a stopper in that case. Luckily my tv did not have to learn that lesson for me. ;)

​@@redjademartialartsofmchenryhey look at that! Nice. There are some key points to controlling the ring. Looks like you are on the path.

@@jgarris0577 I’m glad you enjoyed it! Indeed it is the same like in the one inch punch.

@@Pasture_Prime more than that if you have an inquiring mind.

@@rodgerhempfing2921 Only if you have access to a teacher otherwise pretty dances

​@@Pasture_Primea teacher certainly helps.

You’re welcome. And thanks for watching!

I teach online via my patreon if you can’t attend local classes. We are actually going through a wooden dummy form right now in the latest videos. Link to the patreon is here: www.patreon.com/rjmamchenry

You’re welcome! :)

Do it! Martial poems have so much potential benefit for martial practice. I look forward to what you put out.

Thank you! Melon hammers is quite a nostalgic favorite of mine. As you have said, there is a lot of cross over between these and other double weapons. Most of the principles and movements are the same. Some only notable differences is in melon hammers needing more momentum based movement rather than draw cutting and the lack of need for edge control. But the development of the body in practicing these is fantastic.

@@redjademartialartsofmchenry I should have added... I have been into another northern kung fu style for about 5 years now--mizong luohan. The double hammers have always fascinated me, and I am currently making a pair just for fun. I will be practicing with them pretty soon. Your video convinced me to go one step further. :-)

Go for it and have fun! I suspect you won’t be disappointed.

Yes, I agree. However that is not what we are showing here. This is a breakdown of movements to show how they can be applied in a basic manner. This demonstration was never meant to demonstrate as actual fighting, but rather breaking it down to understand the fundamentals. Applications are like learning the ABCs while sparring is learning to converse and write. I also agree that many traditional martial arts practitioners lack sparring experience and it is a problem in the larger martial arts community. Though it is not a problem at my school. Everything I teach now was beaten into me through sparring under my teacher and his students and I do the same for mine. This video however is not about sparring, but about learning.

All of them are of Chinese martial arts. Spoken in English of course.

This is a wrestling type drill in which we try not to move our feet. This teaches control of our own body and how to control the opponent’s body and neutralize their force. When applied in a martial scenario we are obviously able to move our feet. So this would become an overwhelming force of strikes, destabilizing methods and throws. The theory in this training is that for every step you force the opponent to make that was not their intention to make and for every moment they are fighting for their balance, their attention is divided between fighting you and maintaining balance which means their fighting ability and options are reduced. In combat, elbows would be included in all that, but for this drill it is focusing on developing those wrestling type principles. And of course the heaviness spoken of here would also be applied to elbow striking.

@@redjademartialartsofmchenry ah i get it. I'm not familiar with wrestling, i have experience in karate but i know a few things about wing chun too

@@-kekmacska-48 those are great martial arts to be a part of.

I love the martial arts , alot of the techniques I learned are super impractical in a real fight and made me wonder why learn a technique that's possibly going to get me killed just trying to attempted. Luckily my school taught us alot of ground and pound and joint locks take downs.

Right? I’m a Nak Muay and amateur boxer. I’d love to spar these guys

Look up “little raven studios.” That’s where I got most of my wooden weapons. They’re expensive and take some time, but each item is made with high quality and are durable.

Would you happen to know where to find any plastic/poly pudao/guandao?

Unfortunately I do not know of any poly/plastic guan dao, but the wooden ones work quite well.

Honestly I just wish the blade was longer. Is the blade 21 inches? It just looks shorter than that on video I guess

@@thebiggestboi_art906 yep 21 inches. There are several variants on the site to choose from. Also a pu dao. I got this variant in the video because it lines up closer in dimensions to my steel blade guan dao.
