Xinyi Liuhe Quan in Malmoe summer 2009
Varje morgon under veckan började vi med antingen Xinyi Liuhe Quan eller Baguazhang. Xinyi är ett anrikt system från Henanprovinsen vilket karakteriseras av 10 djur och sex harmonier. Taktiken i Xinyi är att täcka upp hela sin kropp samtidigt som man störtar rakt in i motståndaren. Systemet är uppbyggt kring många små korta attackformer, vilket sedan kan kombineras i det oändliga.
Master Gao Tieniao började med detta system när han var 18 år. Han har nu tränat detta system dagligen i 45 år. Här i Sverige har vi tränat det i 5 år. Det är en stor glädje för oss att vi har de två bästa utövarna i världen här på regelbunden basis varje år.

Tai Chi Fan – training in Malmoe
Solfjädern är ett klassiskt Kung Fu attribut. Under årtusenden har den fungerat som en sval lättnad under heta sommardagar. Inom den klassiska Wudangtraditionen har den även fungerat som vapen och som underhållning. Wudangs solfjäderform finns i två varianter, kvinnlig och manlig. Den vi fokuserade oss på denna vecka var den kvinnliga. Det är originalversionen och man jobbar här med två stycken solfjädrar. I den maliga versionen använder man bara en. Det gör att den kvinnliga versionen innehåller betydligt fler aspekter än den manliga och är även kordinatoriskt svårare.
Master Gao Tieniao lärde sig denna form av sin mästare Pei Shiron, en av de stora Kung Fu legenderna i Shanghai. Han i sin tur lärde sig formen av taoistiska kvinnor i Wudangtemplet runt 1920. Så denna form förvaltar ett långt arv av taoistisk filosofi och taoistisk träning. Den kvinliga versionen har inte lika uttalade attacker som den manliga, detta för att dölja denna intention. Den kvinliga varianten är lika mycket en dans som en kampkonst. Den utfördes även som taoistisk underhållning vid olika festivaler och högtider. Den är även en träningsform för att odla qi, samt stärka och stretcha kroppen.
Tre av våra duktiga elever här på Malmö Wing Tsun Skola har under veckan lärt sig halva denna form, vilket är gigantisk. Här är nu att träna på under det kommande året. Enligt planerna så kommer Master Gao Tieniao tillbaks igen nästa sommar. Schemat är då utökat till två hela veckor. Här kommer vi då att fortsätta med nästa del. Tack till Master Gao som ville undervisa i denna märkliga och vackra form. En elogé till alla er som kämpat med denna form i värmen. Den är svår, jobbig och lång.

At Ip Man pre-production press conference held on March 31, it’s announced that Ip Man 2 would commence filming officially in August 2009. Producer Raymond Wong and director Wilson Yip express confidence for the sequel which has a bigger budget – 100m yuan, saying that the sequel will be even more exciting. The sequel is set in 1949, right after Ip Man arrives in Hong Kong and is about how Ip Man introduces and propagates Wing Chun in the region, and taking in a few disciples. So, in terms of timeline, there won’t be Bruce Lee, and they hope that there would be Bruce Lee in Ip Man 3. While the initial plot outlines for both are done, they would not be shooting Ip Man 3, which would involve Bruce Lee, back to back with Ip Man 2 as previously intended, as they haven’t finalised negotiations with Bruce Lee descendants on the rights.
Above all, martial arts choreographer Sammo Hung – the mystery heavyweight actor mentioned before – will be playing a Hung Gar master in the sequel, and will again be going toe to toe – or rather, finger to finger as the case might be – with Donnie Yen since SPL. Sammo Hung says, “As boss didn’t pay me in the first, I wouldn’t appear in front of the screen. This time I’m getting paid, so I’ll be playing a role too.”
Upon his arrival in Hong Kong, Ip Man notices that the martial arts schools there operate like triads rather than true institutions of martial arts. To set things right, he starts his own school that teaches not just martial arts but also the right values. However, Wing Chun, as taught by Yip Man, is being viewed as kungfu meant only for girls, while Sammo Hung’s Hung Gar is being seen as a macho form of boxing, resulting in exchanges, conflicts and rivalry between the two, with major clash between the two screen titans being main highlight of the sequel.
Fan Siu Wong and Lam Ka Tung will continue to reprise their roles in Ip Man 2. Lam Ka Tung’s Li Zhe will be enlisted in the police force once again in Hong Kong while Fan Siu Wong’s Jin Shan Zhao will turn over a new leaf and retire from the martial arts world (or more appropriately brigandage), becoming an ordinary citizen, and making friends with Yip Man.
With his latest 2 films, Painted Skin and Ip Man, ruling the roost at the box office, Donnie Yen, has become a “hot commodity”, and apart from a share of profits, is getting a substantial pay rise from 10m yuan to 15m yuan for Ip Man 2, says, “Ip Man is indeed my landmark production, this is the first time I’m getting nomination for Best Actor award. I’m grateful to the director, for giving me so much room, presenting an unseen side of Donnie Yen, and also broadening my acting career. It’s also very rare for a kungfu film to receive 12 nominations.

It’s rare that a sequel surpasses the original, but a recent casting announcement concerning the follow-up to Ip Man (see Reed’s review here) seems to indicate that director Wilson Yip is gearing up to do just that. Legendary action star Sammo Hung has signed on as Donnie Yen’s opponent in the film, playing a macho master of Hung Gar who takes exception to Ip Man’s introduction of Wing Chun to the streets of Hong Kong, a style dismissed as being too feminine. I’m a great admirer of Sammo Hung, having spent the past few months going over some of his early work, so this is quite possibly the best movie news I’ve heard so far this year.

Wilson Yip’s IP Man, a biopic based on the life story Bruce Lee’s first martial arts teacher, won best film at the Hong Kong film awards. No luck for Donnie Yen to make it a double for the flick though, as he failed to scoop the best actor accolade. That honour went to Nick Cheung for his performance in Dante Lam’s gritty action cop drama ‘The beast stalker.’ Perhaps the Don-meister will have better luck next time around. “Ip Man 2” is already scheduled to start production in June, with principal photography expected to last until October. IP2 will continue the story of martial- arts expert Ip Man’s escape from Japanese occupied China into Hong Kong. Director Wilson Yip and Yen are both back on board and the pic is aiming for a release towards the end of 2010. Full winners list below:

Master Gao Master Gao Tie-Niao was born in Wujin, Jiang Su Province, in China in 1948. He showed great interests in martial arts even when he was very little. Early on he became the apprentice of famous Shaolin master Jin Xiang-Bao.
He studied all sorts of external styles such as Shaolin Quan and all kinds of weapons, including sword, broadsword, spear, staff, hook etc. After practicing very hard he built up a strong martial arts foundation and received the essence of master Jin’s teachings.
At the age of 18, he was recommended to study with master Pei Xi-Rong, who was a very famous official descendant of Wudang style martial arts and Qigong in Shanghai. Master Gao then started practicing Wudang internal martial arts, such as Xingyiquan, Baguazhang, Taijiquan, Qigong and other internal gongfu (skills). He also studied traditional Daoism theories, I Ching (book of changes), Chinese medicine, acupuncture, Tuina (Chinese traditional massage).
Master Gao is very talented and diligent. After studying very hard and close with master Pei for more than 40 years he has gained a very wide and deep knowledge of the internal style martial arts, he excels and masters it both in practice and in it’s theories. His movements are powerful, swift and beautiful.
He is a well-liked teacher with a good eye for details, is generous in his teachings and patient with his students. As the official inheritor of master Pei’s arts he hopes very much to fulfill his masters last wish, to promote the skills, morals and virtues of Chinese traditional martial arts and culture.
To do this master Gao has contributed his efforts to promote Chinese traditional Wushu and Qigong both in China and abroad. He is working for many different organizations, to name a few, as chairman and main coach of Shanghai Baguazhang Association, as chairman of Shanghai Wudang Qigong Study Institute and as secretary of Shanghai Wudang Martial Arts Institute. He has students in China, USA, Canada, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Japan, Singapore and Hongkong.

Internal Kung Fu Summercamp 2009 med Master Gao Tieniao
Master Gao är en av de ledande instruktörerna i Shanghai. I över 50 år har han utövat sina färdigheter och är idag en kunnig mästare inom ett antal stilar och dicipliner. Kung Fu Hälsa kom i kontakt med honom i Stockholm och blev imponerad av hans kunskaper. Det är därför nu extra roligt att vi kan ha honom här i Malmö. Detta är en unik mölighet att få kunskap om traditionell kinesisk kampkonst.
De stilar som han blivit ombedd att undervisa i är Xinyi Liuhe Quan, Baguazhang och Tai Chi Chuans solfjäderform. Tre träningsformer med helt olika karaktär. Alla underbara på sitt sätt. Traditionellt är alla dessa beprövade kung fu stilar för strid och kamp. Nu för tiden har de utvecklats till stora hälsotraditioner vilket främjar en sund kropp och ett långt friskt liv.
Xinyi Liuhe Quan med karaktären av en stolt tupp, mjuk midja som draken, axlar som en björn, och huvud som en tiger. Detta är kung funs anfader. Bilden av två stridstuppar som anfaller med sina klor snabbt och ursinningslöst.
Baguazhang med sina märkliga steg i en cirkel, med drakens skruvande och ringlande kropp och ett rörelsemönster med armrörelser som är så komplext att det nästan inte går att förstå.
Tai Chi Chuans solfjäder med sina mjuka fläktande rörelser från tranans vingar och sina dödliga stötar med ormens precisionssäkerhet. Graciöst som en sommarkväll men i gräset lurar faran.

SAO PAULO, Brazil – Helio Gracie, one of the main creators of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu that gained worldwide popularity, has died. He was 95. Gracie died Thursday morning and was buried in the afternoon near his home in the mountain resort town of Petropolis near Rio de Janeiro, according to a short statement posted on the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Academy Web site. The Agencia Estado news service said he died of pneumonia. Gracie introduced a series of adaptations to traditional Japanese Jiu-Jitsu that emphasized leverage and position as a way to compensate for size differences among opponents. More than 40 sons and grandsons of Gracie and his brother Carlos helped popularize the mixed martial art around the world. One of Gracie’s sons, Rorion, was a founder of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, a hugely popular martial-arts combat sport in the United States, where it is seen as a more exciting alternative to boxing and wrestling. Gracie is survived by his wife and nine children.
