Mr. Chen, this is excellent Chinese weapons instruction, thanks very much. I particularly enjoy the manual, which is absent in many modern martial arts instructions
@HamsterPants522 Yes! And the movie was appropiate for this video too! Because the movie was based in Ming Dynasty China, and it's about Chinese swordsmen and Japanese swordsmen. ;-)
You all might find the Traditional Chinese Sword League interesting, yearly beginners & open full contact swordplay tournaments in America & Europe using full weight wooden weapons (no plastic swords). The next open will be October 2, 2010 in Washington, DC.
It depends on whether you can understand the essence & principles behind the movement or not. Sometimes the movement may be flowery, but it's the lessons behind it that's important.

i'm not trying to offend anybody
is it me or is that the name of Cheng's teacher name's written 雪 but not 雲?
@jackchn I accidentally removed my message. hahah
And I agree. It's very fitting.
I heard that master Cheng learned these techniques from his teacher who gained them from a Japanese Shinkage-ryu sword scroll. Is this accurate?
@cryodragoon The music is from a anime movie called "sword of the stranger". It's the last battle theme, you can searh for it on youtube
hi, Jack Chen. What is your opinion between the ancient sword martial arts and modern dancing sword arts which are show in many movies?
