300 Years of Hakka Kung Fu

- “300 Years of Hakka Kung Fu" ( www.plumpub.com...) is a special kind of book: a scholar's book, a collector's book, a lineage-holder's record. This is NOT a training text. It is also a catalogue of a special exhibition on 300 years of Hakka Kung Fu, held in Hong Kong. This beautifully bound hardback edition acquaints us with the Hakka people, "The nomads of China.”
We celebrate the release of this book by compiling some live Hakka style demonstrations, taken from the remarkable two-disk collection “An Evening of Martial Arts.” (www.plumpub.com...)
Taken for the record it is meant to be, this is an extraordinary compilation. The photos of the teachers are done with intensity; the stories of their martial associations cross all the borders-family, social, traditional. Most of these masters have 10 or fewer students at this point in time. And this scholarly work draws from each of them their tightly bound relation to lifelong practice. If you know something about Hakka boxing technique, and want to expose yourself to its stories, dreams and heritage coming from a people famous for mathematics, astrology and storytelling, this will be a text you will return to over and over.
PLUM PUBLICATIONS (www.plumpub.com/) is the address for thousands of DVDs, books, articles and video tutorials focusing on the traditional Chinese Martial Arts.
I am from "north borneo"...heart land of hakkas settler...grew up with unicorn dances and hakka wushu...its all gone now...no effort to keep this unique tradition alive...many young hakkas are ignorant of their cultural heritage...
Respect from indonesia,,I'm hakka too🙏
I AM HAKKANESE AND I LIKE HAKKA KUNG FU.
Awesome really great displays of form
The "playing" mantis sifu (next to last performer) had some interesting material. Seemed to be a lot of knowledge/information in those movements.
the last master perfoming hakka forms his style is very similar to old okinawa karate styles.
Well yes - back when it was Ryuku there was a lot of interaction with China... Including learning martial arts.
Chu Gar "Playing" Mantis. Very interesting. Awesome vid. Thanks for the post.
Very powerful form
Thanks for sharing! Have an awesome day!
Awesome video. Great information.
Thanks for posting this.
Have a great day 😊
Thanks for posting this. I've long been very curious about some of the other Hakka styles, especially Hakka Boxing. That first gentleman appeared to be doing a kind of monkey style. My Jook Lum instructor used to teach something he called the Monkey to advanced students that involved very low to the ground postures and rolling.
Where's the comment step inside the mma cage?
These are great traditional Fung fu systems.
I like kung fu thnk yu
Raymond Chow was Hakka

You mean, rather,
kuntau
looks like it.
These are kuntau's parents.
One parent of many.
Help others jump in your dances
What is the name of the shifu in the image at the start of this video? He was one of the shifu that did the motion capturing, but its hard to find his name.
I would love to know his name...
His name is Yau Wan Wah
I guess he should be Lam Sai Wing - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lam_Sai-wing
Sifu Yau Wan Wah of Iron Ox Praying Mantis
Veery interesting :)

Is this a self-defense system as well? I only ask this because I have an interest in seeing it put into practical form against an adversary who is not being cooperative.
Of course this is a self defense system but I guess its effectiveness depends on how you train against a non cooperative opponent and your own experience fighting. The forms only give you a sense of technique and not really the finer details that a fighter would only pick up in a real fight, knowing personally through testing and feeling things out everyone reacts differently and applies things differently to a degree and is not meant as a one move fits all kinda deal. Knowing things like angles and distances etc
Personally I think I wouldn't look to a Kung Fu practitioner unless they do Sanda/Sanshou for practical use and application but rather trying to spot some of these movements in boxing, muay thai, mma or other styles that test through sport and working from there. They tend to have better pressure testing. In Martial arts Kung Fu practitioners tend to have greater knowledge but not greater experience and applying all that knowledge is hard.
I find a lot of similarities in a Muay Thai stance to how a Hakka styles and Wing Chun stance in that it isn't sideways/bladed but almost square.
There are probably some Qin Na and trapping elements sprinkled in and those really only ever work against inexperienced fighters or those caught of guard. Doesn't work in a sporting environment when an opponent is mentally ready and on guard but if you do use them use them as a finisher.
I would say
Stage 1: Learn the Forms
Stage 2: Study and breakdown the movements compare them to other styles
Stage 3: Test movements and combinations with cooperative opponent.
Stage 4: Which is the hardest part is emptying your cup or creating a sense of no-mind. People have a tendency to overthink or predict movements. People think if opponent does this then I need to do this and that makes a person slow and often why these techniques can fail because our cognitive brains are too slow and you need to adapt and react on the fly.
Stage 5: Fight/Spar noncoperative and free style.
Tested it out and it’s pretty effective
@@LunaticReason well said
It should be... especially since they train with weapons too... swords still are effective
well originally all martial arts were either self defense or military attack systems... Nowadays it is mostly for exercise and competition. But training is what matters. Sanda is probably one of the few still "martial" arts in China - meaning it is meant to kill or maim or disable.
Lạc hậu lắm rồi
I believe this is good for physical and mental health. However, to survive a real street fight , you need to learn something else.
The people who made them and practiced survived life and death attacks through woodland areas etc
To survive a "real street fight" one must learn a great many things. This is just solo forms training, one small aspect of a much larger dynamic.
