An interesting thing to focus on is the performers back. Although it is a martial art that promotes a high degree of flexibility, Wushu (and onther chinese martial arts) require having a straight back. Its like an immovable pillar at the center of a tempest of movement. Pretty cool.

Excellent presentation of skill and lifelong commitment to Kung Fu. I have practiced Shaolin Kung Fu but only for combat reasons. I have practiced these techniques using the jian. I must admit watching u perform makes my technique better.

In Jian forms the empty hand uses two finger to point where the blade will strike or is striking. It may seems weird that you would let your oponent know where you were about to strike but it's part of what makes the jian the gentleman's sword.

Great form! This is an excellent display of modern jian shu! Nice sword, as well. I think I can see a central spine in the blade to offer higher durability to the sword, while keeping it lightweight.

They are wobbly because they make the blade somewhat thin for demonstration purposes. So yes, they are lighter on the blade end

@TsunamiNoir Adding to wushu297 comment. Holding the fingers togeather has a few reasons. 1. The two fingers are held togeather to represent the type of blade being used. (ie. if you are using a broad sword (aka a machette) or in chinese a dao the blade only has one side so the proper hand posture is an open palm. 2. The non sword hand is used as a counter balance to the weight of the sword and an opposite (in the sense of a yin yang) and where u are attacking u are covering ur openings.

@TsunamiNoir it derives from daoist mystic practices. they the "sword fingers" as a "mystic sword" to fight evil spirits. now days the tradition is just carried over (though some also state that it's to strike pressure points).

Traditional training swords are either limp like this or made of wood, because martial artists are not idiots and know that when you train in a complicated routine you should not risk cutting your ears or fingers off, Real swords were saved for battle so if you plan on going into battle anytime soon I would advise you use a real sword (but you should probably use modern weaponry) but in training you should be safe and use a practice weapon.

Hey man you might be one of those people that likes to correct people. Anyways. I'm talking about the exhibit performance which only soul calibur had. Soul Blade didn't and newer installment of SC don't have them anymore. Hwang was pretty much replaced by Yun Seong from SC2-4. Hwang and Han Myong is the only 2 handed wielder in the entire SC series including SB. But this exhibit is by Xiang Hua and imo chinese and japanese martial arts are most popular and the best in the world.

Adding to wushu297... the chinese swords are more versatile and flexable because the way the chinese sword is used is not to impale but to cut the opponent on specific points on the body that are in conjunction with major artories.... Therefore when you are fighting a chinese swords man he is looking to make you bleed to death rather than to impale you.

the term dan (pronounced and spelled 'duan' in chinese romanization) is just the level of th form. when u have mastered the sixth duan, u are judged as a master. the seventh duan makes u a grandmaster and is (obviously) much harder to get.

@whsskdhkf to help with the fa-jing problem you might be confining your force in the sword too much...in the sense that the fa-jing force needs a focal/release point (usually the tip of the blade). This can be acheived by moving the handle faster than the blade of focusing on the tip. Hope this helps because i use a fa-jing force all the time and it does not ruin my blade.

Umm, no offense for the practitioner, but everyone knows that Wudang Sword is the ultimate sword form. There's no better form, this is just flashier and better for show, like most forms in modern wushu. I admit I also like how modern wushu looks and I'd like to try a few forms, but it's mostly just for show.

uuuh how do you think they made the game sweety? they record the people doing the demostration then they program it to a computer and animate it tbh there really isnt much of a difference between these things in games and in real life well as far as the BASICS aspects like kicking demos and things like that :P especially with technology these now and days you can literally record and throw it on there

@jimmyjamesWang I dunno about wushu, but in Tai Chi, usage of Fa-Jing completely ruins the weapons because you're sending in vibration to the handle and blade. My Kwan Dao's head flew off sometime ago :/ Shame I paid 200 dollars for that. So i'm not risking it anymore. Maybe if I get a custom weapon for couple of grands that's completely welded and the handle is just two pieces of wood slapped on the the metal. But i'm too poor to get that. So i'm good with light, durable wushu weapon for now

you're mistaken. Those spring-steel swords are strictly for performance and practice only. Real Chinese swords are made from cold steel. checkout this vid (retype the dot): youtube(dot)com/watch?v=sP0oW8b71vE
