I Just Won Silver in a Martial Arts Competition!
Added 2024-09-04 18:19:07 +0000 UTCI don't have a chance to talk about it a lot, but I love Chinese culture and I've been practicing traditional Chinese martial arts for over 10 years. I just won silver in a martial arts competition for a stick form, so I thought I'd share the video with you.
I also want to give a shoutout to my friend Byron Jacobs who has done A TON to promote Chinese martial arts and gave me some pointers before the competition. He's got a great YouTube channel which I recommend you check out https://www.youtube.com/@MuShinMartialCulture and an absolutely excellent book on Xing Yi Quan that I also recommend you pick up! https://www.mushinmartialculture.com/

2024-09-05 19:46:13 +0000 UTCVery inspirational. The side spin/flip must be so addictive. I would be doing that all over office.

2024-09-05 16:49:06 +0000 UTCGood job! As someone who has dedicated his life to training and teaching martial arts I knowhow much work is involved. The short staff is my favorite weapons since you can carry it as a walking stick everywhere, you can even not only carry it on a plane, if you have a limp they will board you first.

2024-09-05 16:23:25 +0000 UTCWell done, people don't really understand how much work this takes. I did Wing Chun for 5 years, getting past all 12 student grades to 1st practitioner level before life took over and I could not continue. It's been a while but the foundations are still with me.

2024-09-04 22:17:55 +0000 UTCAwesome performance! Do you practice with other items also (nunchaku, samurai sword, etc.)?

2024-09-04 21:13:43 +0000 UTCWow, you just got even more respect from me, Chris. I mean, it would've been enough even to just hear about it, but after I've seen your stick video, mad skills my friend! I hope you won't have to use these skills too soon.... Except the world is full of bullies trying to force themselves on everyone else. At least now we know you can defend yourself AND teach the possible attackers a lesson! Chris Chappell, a comedian, news anchor, and international man of mystery! etc. etc. Congratulations!
