Internal Kung Fu Power - REAL or FAKE? - Part 1

*** IMPORTANT NOTE: This video was not made with the intention to disrespect any art or any teacher/practitioner within or out of this video. It is merely an opinion on the sometimes unrealistic level of compliance by the students and training partners and a suggestion to apply a more realistic force or resistance to the demonstrator ***

In this Part 1 of the 2 part clip, Grandmaster Chu Shong Tin tests his power against an Olympic weight lifter nearly 3 times his size. You can judge for yourself the realism of this compared to other powerful demonstrations.

Here, as mentioned above, we discuss the reason why some people play the game of compliance when they are at the end of their teacher's movement. Nima share's his opinion on why this is not good for Kung Fu, the student, nor the teacher.

Kung Fu's internal power is real but some are turning it out to be mystical and playing the game of compliance which has been played for many decades if not centuries. This happens within the CST lineage a lot as well so again, this is not to point fingers to any person or method in particular but its a general issue within the Internal Arts. It gives Kung Fu a bad name in this day and age and it takes realism away from the demonstrations cause people are smart and can see when something is over exaggerated and put on.

So, perhaps this compliant way of testing each other's movements is one 'tradition' that we should break because it is not beneficial for the arts. The only benefit of giving compliant force is when teaching as described in the 10minute mark of this video...
