Maestro, mi nombre es Nelson, es muy hermoso el estilo Mantis del kung fu que usted presenta. ¿ podría por favor decirnos como se llama cada forma ? O ¿ son una misma ? Me parese que no. Gracias por su respuesta.
El primer Taou Lu es Beng Bu, fundamental en muchos estilos Tang Lang y se dice que fue creado por Wang Lang, el fundador del estilo Mantis. El segundo Tao Lu es Xiao Dao, el tercero es Lanjie, el cuarto es Talu. Luego el vídeo continúa mostrando a Lanjie, la tercera, en detalle.
That's the best, most authentic performance I've ever seen of this style. Really wonderful execution of movements and breath control for speed, power and sensitivity.
@Aiden Fisher obviously you are entitled to your opinion. I used to train with 7 -star Mantis practitioners in different style Kung Fu school in the 80s and 90s in London (the school of Lau Gar sifu Stan Brown), but I'm no expert on the Mantis style. However, I have many years of experience in the martial arts, from 1972 to this day, so I can appreciate a demonstration executed well and there are things that I see that may be different to what another person may see, which is fine. When people talk about lineage in the martial arts, it can be to state something about the particular branch of development and instruction of a school and/or style. This is a good historical reference, but it doesn't necessarily mean that it's better or worse than another, just different. The world of martial arts can become cluttered with claim and counter-claim, which serves little real purpose in my opinion. What is important is what is in the heart of the practitioner, regardless of their particular style, school, teacher etc. Sometimes it's possible to recognise that in others, whereas other times it is not.
Impressive Form, Skill, and execution ! As a old Martial artist I've studied Many styles but not Mantis. Watching you perform makes me wish I had! Beautiful system from a great teacher! Thank You!
Excellent Tang Lang Lan another of my influencial martialarts! Thank you Master Dante Basili for sharing! Great view of a real preying mantis!😊 👍 🍵 🍇 🍑
That was really well done....I can tell you have trained hard! I would love to learn forms like this!! Thanks for inspiring me (a 45 year old Aussie male!)
Some months ago my sifu asked me that I performed a mantis form that he had taught us even though it was a hung gar school (due to the simplicity and usefulness of that form ). But as it wasn't of our style, I hadn't payed much attention to it and performed as it was a hung gar form (strong and considerably paused). So my sifu later said that the mantis is way more fluid and fast, something that I had to train more. I didn't get it till seeing you performing, everything seems clear of what he'd said! I thank you!
Great stances. I do 7 star praying mantis, and it never fails to impress me, the purity of the communication of the forms. I’m in Louisiana United States, but I totally get what you’re doing. Excellent form.
Ciao David. Shandong is the homeland of Tang Lang, in any case north of China ... and a brother of mine from Kung Fu (Emanuele Papa) told me that relations with Tong Bei Quan are very close.
7th of May, 2020. Hope and trust you have been safe and healthy. We cannot afford to lose you. You are a real treasure Danti. Please insure your own well-being. May the Tao and the Buddha bless you with double happiness. Greetings from Wien.
Will this work against a medium boxer ? Or this guy will be knocked down in a few seconds? Is there any video showing how this system works in a real fight? Does it?
What is shown here is the ability to produce power according to his style's principles. And his ability is quite mighty when you know what to look for, but it doesn't tell much about his fighting skills. He can produce power, but using that power in a real fight is another skillset, which comes mostly from sparring. So, as always, the question is not about the style, but the individual fighter.
Excellent response. Ta Ji Mei Hua Tang Lang is another incredible form of wushu. This Master demonstrates this special form in his unique way. The breathing, the movements, the energy, all goes towards keeping us fit and healthy through exercises. In peaceful times, it's like physiotherapy. In the 5000 years of Chinese history, sadly, much was about protection against invaders, bullies, thus a wide variety of self-defence styles were developed by genial practitioners. I applaud this Master in this video for his devotion to Tai Ji Mei Hua Tan Lang chuen. Thank you for uploading. My late GodFather showed me the butterfly form, and it's beautiful.
@@АлександрАнтонович-м6д Greetings, certainly ,I see your point of view. However, what I can discern is a sharing of style and knowledge. Without learned individuals like You and Master Dante, this form of exercise may fade into oblivion. Like a mother's favourite recipe, if we don't share and pass down to the next generation, the art of dedication and passion can be overtaken by 21st century technology and engineering, used in movies for our entertainment. Real mastery comes from selfless sharing and continuance in education. I'm glad for your comment, I'm open to constructive input. So thank you, I'd very much like to learn sharp visionary skills from you. God bless.
Grazie Angelo per il consiglio! Per il ritorno economico lavoro come un operaio, ma prendo di meno, nonostante che per studiare in Cina abbia speso più che andare all'università. Però da 28 anni vivo di quello che mi piace. Quando passi da queste parti vieni a fare due tiri con l'arco tradizionale... è divertente, essenziale e tirando insieme si riesce a capire come sono fatte veramente le persone sotto l'apparenza:) Con stima, buona musica ed un abbraccio.
I don't know if I understand the question. However, correct practice preserves the body and keeps it healthy, including the knees. I am no longer young and correct practice has kept me healthy. The videos do not show the real parameters of the execution.
@@TheDrago111 I agree that having a straight leg would invite the enemy to strike it, but this is never used at a distance. This is all close range. A couple times in this form, you will see a footsweep that is performed exactly like Judo's de ashi barai. It is impossible to have bent leg when you put your foot behind your opponent when you standing up against them in an upright grapple. I don't know what experience you have with BJJ or Judo, but you often do footsweeps with straight legs. Sometimes your leg comes down.
ciao Dante, da altri tuoi video, ho visto che pratichi ed insegni anche BA GUA ZHANG, WING CHUN, TAI JI QUAN ecc.ecc. come fai a conciliare il tutto? io con il solo QI XING TANG LANG QUAN sono impegnatissimo! e spesso il tempo non mi basta per poterlo mantenere e padroneggiare tutto, a volte avrei bisogno che i giorni durassero 36 ore. tu invece, vedo che riesci a trovare tutto il tempo a te necessario per padroneggiare ed insegnare ben 8 stili diversi, ma come fai? quale è il tuo segreto?.
Ciao Dante! Vorrei sapere se fai dei seminari? Ho guardato sul sito ma non ho visto nulla! Ho fatto qualcosa anni fa e sto ricominciando . Mi ricordo un seminario che feci con te e mi è rimasto impresso! Ne vorrei fare altri! Grazie maestro!
Tang Lang Quan style can be effectively used in self defense. In combat with rules you have to make a choice of techniques. Here an example of applications: ruclips.net/video/ChiPygxoMAg/видео.html
@@DanteBasili good, thats good, there was a time i learned a bit, not much. But i saw, i felt, at least its much better for body and soul then all what "modern socity" offers today.
@@DanteBasili but what in end is the purpose? If the body is to live 120 years, meanwhile, in this time of choice, would the cultivating of body movement be the way? The purpose of life? No disrespect at all, i ask cause it sits on my thought when i think about it. What do u say on all that?
I had an instructor who did handstand push ups on his wrists. He was a serious mantis practitioner who used it when fighting in AAU karate tournaments at Madison Square garden back in the day. When I get the film footage we'll post it on you tube and inform ypu.
mi pare di capire che il maestro basili, faccia un pò di QI XING T.LQ., un pò di TAI JI T.L.Q. , un pò di MEI HUA T.L.Q. e un pò di LIU HE T.L.Q..

You demonstrate the cruelty and beauty of the movements of this system incredibly...
Very crisp and smooth movement.
NICE!!!!You can see the many sweeps and arm control.
this is one of the best lan jie opening i have ever seen outside china
Grazie Marcell :)
I concur. You are a credit to yourself and your teacher. Love the plain setting with no gimmicks, just excellent Kung Fu!
Lan jie, that move set brings back memories. That style if you know how to really use it and what the move set represents can be used on a real fight.
It's True
That was really well done....I can tell you have trained hard! I would love to learn forms like this!! Thanks for inspiring me (a 45 year old Aussie male!)

Taiji Meihua Tang Lang
