February 20, 200620 yr Nice, but I wonder how this martial art (whatever it is) would fare in a real street confrontation. What do you think?
February 20, 200620 yr It's a very rare form of kung fu called Shaolin Xin Yi Ba. "street confrontation" depends on about 700 things. like: Where? Do they have a gun, a knife, brass knuckles? Are they bigger, smaller? Do they have martial arts experience? Boxer? Wrestler? Is there an element of reasonable force? Intent to kill, maim, injure?Basically, it depends wholly on the situation. Nearly every martial art is good for a street confrontation, it just depends on a whole lot of factors.

March 17, 200620 yr Yes, I can see alot of that being very effective in the streets, he is obviously a skilled individual. Nice Clip! "One of the lessons of history is that nothing is often a good thing to do and always a clever thing to say." - Will Durant
March 17, 200620 yr Nice, but I wonder how this martial art (whatever it is) would fare in a real street confrontation. What do you think?It would fare extremely well in a street confrontation maybe even too well, that is well enough to get one arrested. You wouldn't believe how many of those techniques could kill an adversary, if applied without any control. Kung Fu is a real martial art and was devised to help one win - or at least survive-battles in many scenarios, which nowadays includes the street. Obviously, one needs to be a skilled kung fu exponent to make these techniques work. Use your time on an art that is worthwhile and not on a dozen irrelevant "ways".
March 17, 200620 yr Yea I must agree, some serious training and hard work here.I think it would successful in a street or real life confrontation.Entertaining to watch also . "Time is what we want most, but what we use worst"William Penn
