Jul 19, 2010 - @ShaolinEast It's not a matter of fighting for money. I practice Wing Chun nowadays and I never thought of taking part in a MMA event because I think MMA is a sport and if you want to succeed on MMA then you need to train MMA techniques. So for me, it's a matter of the martial art that you are practicing to be efficient or not when you need to apply it in a real fight. Just that. I just would like to give an advice to you or to anyone: if you want to see if your martial art is efficient or...
IchbinSchalker Says:
Jul 19, 2010 - @ShaolinEast ... not, then just take part in a fighting championship and test it there. This is what I did. Only fighting against other fighters you will be able to see if your martial art or your learning is good or not. There is no other way. But if you just like to practice Shaolin or whatever martial art just for conditioning, wellness, relieving of stress, etc, go ahead and be happy. For me, I can't see any reason on learning a martial art for not applying it. Just that. Good Luck!

ShaolinEast Says:
Jul 21, 2010 - @IchbinSchalker Yeah it's the gloves, i have been doing iron fist for many years now, also what they call Golden sand palm. The gloves mke my type of training pointless. whats the point of making my knuckles and palms 4x harder only to later pad them up its useless. its like muay thai fighter conditioning his shins for years kicking trees only to be told he hs to wear leg pads, if you told a muy thai fighter to pad his legs up he would laugh, thats how i look upon gloves.

Jul 21, 2010 - @IchbinSchalker I do full contact sparring with my training partners, also alot of the shaolin 36th generation teachers compete in whats called San shou bouts. Shi Yanzi my former master competes in them still i think. MMA is fine but those 4 oz gloves still protect people from my iron fist training. I spar with alot of BJJ guys they seem to be the only breed of fighter who take up my challenges. if you know of any full contact non protection comps let me know please.

Jul 23, 2010 - @thfFromRussia sanda is almost like a dance, It has its rules, you wouldnt use this to fight, more like a stamina build. Hence why flipping on your head during a fight isnt practicle, but during training it is. You would never see shou lin do this kind of stuff, but i would love to see a shoulin monk flipp over a boxer, but they dont fight agressivly. thats generally why they sanda
GuamKomudo Says:
Jul 23, 2010 - Look up Sanda, that is fighting form of Shaolin Kung fu.
clivertification Says:
Jul 25, 2010 - if shaolin would develope their kung fu and not only open hand they would be much better because they 've got everything .... strength,really quick .....
MDNSBS Says:
Jul 25, 2010 - @ofer20 sanda if fucking stupid, not real kung fu, its some new age wanna be jiu jitsu. why? idk but you can see a monk basicaly toying with a tkd master in Taekwondo(Korea) vs Kung fu(Shaolin,China), and you see how realaxd and easdily avoiding/deflecting all the tkd guys attacks. all of what they do in their actually kung fu forms is applicable in a real fight.
MDNSBS Says:
Jul 25, 2010 - @thfFromRussia the reason youy dont find sholin monks fighting is because "real kung fu" teaches humility and peace, they dont fight expect to defended themselfs. no im not riping that off the karate kid movie, what they say in that movie just happne to be true
thfFromRussia Says:
Jul 26, 2010 - @MDNSBS there are some mythical ancient stories - for example about 13(if im not mistaken) shaolin monks who beaten whole emperror's army to release their mentor. As i know kung fu created by monks to defend from rogues and robbers. So it seems that almost all (if not all) we can see on youtube it's not the real mastery. It's impressive but i'm sure that the true possibilities of spiritually developed human are incomparable with that. They just don't need to jump in front of camera :)

Jul 27, 2010 - this is why Africans cannot study Kungfu. Their balls will brake during traning.

Jul 31, 2010 - oh great, So if I'll learn that I can join the circus

IchbinSchalker Says:
Jul 19, 2010 - @ShaolinEast ... doesn't. But when you have to face someone who fights another martial art like Muai Thai, Chinese Boxing, Kickboxing, Taekwondo, etc, then the things are much different, because you are facing someone who also knows how to punch, how to kick, when to do it, and how to defend himself. So I could say to you that my 8 years of Shaolin practice were useless and I entered the ring and have to face a guy who was a very good boxer. That's why I practice Wing Chun nowadays.
