The Truth Behind Traditional Kung Fu
According to China Uncensored, Bruce Lee introduced the West to Kung Fu. Now China Uncensored will introduce you to the history and traditions of Chinese Martial Arts with the help of Master of 7 Star Praying Mantis, Longfei Yang.
In 1996, Longfei Yang was introduced by his father to a man named Mr. Li (Lee). He was a master of a fighting style that focused on meditation, soft movements, and breathing exercises. Longfei was not very impressed in the beginning. Mr. Li was in his sixties and Longfei was in his twenties. Longfei thought it would be easy to beat him in a fight. Mr. Li asked Longfei to fight him. Whenever his fist got near his teacher, he just changed his position and dodged it. Mr. Li was extremely fast. Longfei said it was like fighting with a shadow and not a person. After a few minutes, Longfei was tired. With a push, Mr. Li knocked him back several meters.
