Everybody's got a plan until they get punched in the mouth . - Mike Tyson

But how do I adjust the opponent’s playback speed when I try this in a real fight?

I can’t believe he just gave away the secret to the dreaded death rib-slap!

It’s easy when your opponent throws a slow punch and then stays in that position long enough for you to move and slap them.

I bet the boxer wanted to laugh so HARD! hahahaha

No one: Me: here to learn how to waterbend

“Its an ‘ancient’ way.” 😂 Tai Chi is the most effective marrial art ever... for pushing people away so you have room to run. Seriously, its actually good at that lol

That “slip in” thing is a good way to catch a WICKED right

If your style is actually effective, spar a boxer for a couple rounds. I need real proof.

The fact that he thought he was fast enough that we needed a slow mo 😂

"Part the horse's mane" Umm no actually the ancient chiense grandmasters referred to that move as the "belly bitchslap", god damn amateur smh

That slap on the ribs must be absolutely devastating.

ths looks like it would work perfectly against someone who throws a slow jab and then pauses with their arm extended.

Felt sorry for the boxer. Had to pretend he wouldn't be able to utterly smash this guy. Must've been tough on his ego. Fair play to him.

At 4:06 I didn't realize he actually hit the boxer cause he didn't even flinch. And after he even asks if he's okay lmaooo I'm dying

3:34 bless you! You need a tissue there?

The master of bullshido.

Thanks for the great info! I can now deliver a WICKED backhand slap to his ribs before I get choked out!

These vids are farking brilliant and always ring true. Thanks Jake. ❤️

Thanks for the knowledge sir. Keep up the good work!

This the funniest shit I’ve ever seen 😂😂. This man first attack is back hand slap to the ribs lol

The "Are you ok" part killed me

For all those that laugh at these beginner explanations, it might be interesting to know that Tai chi was originally only taught to those who had mastered all the other levels of kung fu. It wasn't taught to the public. It was the most advanced form of kung Fu. That slap to the solar plexus is nasty enough, but if he misses it can break a rib. And the opponent has to setup all over again. Also, beginners take much more shallow steps. Only the most advanced take deep steps and elongated forms. And btw, he did mention fast twitch muscle use, which needs to specifically developed intentionally. Most people will not get there. Especially if a little older. But even those only interested in the health aspect of tai chi will develop muscle memory and if put into a situation ... That will kick in and they will gate much better. You may, or may not recall that lateral movement in Olympic boxing was brought to the ring by the American boxing team in the 1980s , and they dominated.

🤣😂 "are you ok?, ....c'mon you can take it"

"Are you okay?" 😆😆 "Yeah bro, I'm fine. Spar me for real."

i have been into a lot of streetfights as a teenager,/adolescent, and did a lot of combat sports, boxing, wrestling, etc. the only thing i have experienced for SURE, never underestimate an opponent, and extreme aggression and determination in the first 10 to 30 seconds always has won the fight, even without combat sports experience. Nowadays i try to avoid any fight, because in the end even the winner will loose.

looks great,thanks for the sharing and teaching,appreciate

0:45 “oh man, that’s a lot of power” 😂

Boxers has a training for pain tolerance open hand slap will never hurt them

I´m 50 years old, so potentially no match for young fighters. Still doing Boxing and Kickboxing, had some 50 fights in the 90s and some 1000s sparring rounds with or against fighters from any kind of style. Even with beginners i never saw a boxer throwing one straight left, leaving enough time and space to use a technique like shown in the video. It is obvious that any! fighter would adopt a superior system - but nobody in MMA-professional-fighting is using it, for the simple that it doesn´t work. It´s pretty hard to fight skilled Boxers even when you are a good (low)kicker, their punching-frequency and footwork is impressive and has proven it worth. I´ve never found a single video on YT showing a real fight in which this slapping and pushing works fine - so it will be hard to convince me.

Sign me up for your classes Jake! Love it!

I'm going to say this once, I'm going to say this twice, Tai-chi is not self defense it's just a healthy activity

I love Tai Chi. I use to be really shy around people at the club and other social functions until I started learning Tai Chi. It has given me the confidence I needed and completely changed my life. Now, I usually find myself being the first one on the dance floor with my fancy Tai Chi flow and dance moves. One time, a fight broke out at a club but I just kept calm and continued dancing using my Tai Chi dance moves.

😂😂😂😂 this is why people get killed!!

I’ve been looking g for the past thirty minutes on a more “effective form” and I finally found it the ones I’ve been finding I wasn’t seeing no “flow of energy” and movement this guy had good posture and Explained or really well planning to get into tai-chi whenever I heal from my ankle Injury I had heard how it helps add strength to the bones

Jake well done nice video I enjoyed:)

Never see a boxer standing still for 4 sec after the jab. Western boxing is lot of fast hard punch and excelent footwork

Cool sidestep. I'm sure you'd have pulled it off equally well if it wasn't slow motion. Must be a true master to understand there is no need to keep your guard up with the other hand, boxers never throw combos and that flaccid wrist slap would break anyone's ribs and incapacitate them. It's a complete mystery why we never see Tia chi masters winning MMA tournaments. Be careful trying this on the street boys and girls, don't want to accidental kill someone by releasing too much chi!

These are some really good demo's and explanations of Tai Chi Martial Application. Props, for clear explanations. That said, he was never taught true Fa Jing. If he had, the boxer would have dropped from those strikes. Popper Fa Jing can be used with any strike, including the back hand.

I tried these moves in a match and got beaten I want a refund

I actually searched for Martial Art, but damn i never saw such a good dance tutorial.

1:10 Great way to start to get knocked out😂😂😂

2:28 what are you doing lol, no damage

its been many years since this videos was post here boxer its still laughing said the legend

Tai Chi is like that one guy whose the pacifist but when shit goes down he's the craziest one.

I'm not one to bash another style because anyone with exceptional skill and understanding can make any style work but on this video. A jab in boxing is used to distract or set up another blow or movement. A professional boxers jab like Ali's would not be able to slip like this without being caught by another left hook or straight right of uppercut. Normally slipping a jab could be dangerous as the boxer could be setting you up for a hard blow.

M thinking how that boxer hold his laugh. 😂.

how bold he was to keep on comments

These moves might work ok in a slap fight.

No boxer throws a hook and freezes for a few seconds for you too do that Pwachaa shit

hey, so i really enjoy your videos. I wish i would've learned a martial arts when i was younger. are you gonna make anymore dvd's? I'm wondering because i have more time to study these days? i'm looking for the tai chi and self defense tai chi....please let me know!

Hey, thanks for adding to the conversation, and being willing to share your passion with the community! It's scary to put yourself out there in front of all the haters.

This will get your ass kicked. Jab is quick. Not gonna have time do all fancy shit

Sorry...but this is out of reality, as a boxer the first thing we learn is to hit and immediately get our guard ready to cover our sides (ribs) face, stomach etc, the hit is like a whip any boxer knows you must never keep your arm extended, so this defense against a jab will never work against a real boxer.

Enjoy all of your videos. Question, have you ever been in a real street fight?

I think if you combine the calm tai chi with something more offensive and technically superior you'll be a very strong fighter

This guy makes the martial art community looks bad

Why am I watching this?

Hi Kung fu, thank you for this cross training. I don't know anything about kung fu nor boxing but i know that cross training are very rewarding for everyone and that there is no discipline less valuable than another. Can you explain to me how you open your heart in Kung fu please ? just liked and subscribed to your channel

Master tai chi, you should try Mma and see how it works out for your plan.

I like how many people learn kung fu tai chi and all that but in a real fight they just punch and kick.

I've been practicing shotokan karate in the 80's, Aikido in 80's, then thai and kick boxing, in qi gong since the 90's. I have much respect for tai chi, but a person who practices tai chi and fight with a boxer, will just get destroyed. Tai chi is a form of qi gong. tai chi has some martial roots in it, but in no way gives any capacity to any person to fight boxers. You live in an illusion if you believe the contrary. tai chi could be a complementary practice for a fighter who already is in thai boxing, or boxing, or full contact martial art. tai chi would give you better balance and better understanding of movements, but if you practice tai chi , even for 10 years, and you think you can fight a boxer with it, you are totally in an illusive world. same applies with most wu shu technic and aikido. Practicing tai chi does not prepare your body to get hit, does not teach you how to strike punches, knees elbow and kicks ... through the angle of real fight and self defense, tai chi is just a system of pointless fancy movements for people who live in a dream ... and you could almost say the same thing with most of aikido and kung fu movements, which does not teach you how to kick and punch, and only require that you grabb opponent arms at very precise moments and spots to be effective, which hapen in fancy training but never in real street combat situation or on a ring. Of course it looks good on videos or in movies; indeed practice tai chi for meditation, breathing, get better health, get bette immune system, get in harmony with the universe and follow the law of tao, but avoid it if you think you can fight just with it cause you will get wrecked...consequently this video is total utter bullshit .. ...namaste

Is this the guy that got smashed in the mma fails when he is on his knees slapping the other guy? 😂😂

Fighting Taiji requires a lot of practice and lots of practical, full contact with realistic speed and strength. Therefore, you need a very strong, fast and agile body to be able to use Taiji in a real fight. You also need a good eye and strong self-confidence to deal properly with an escalating situation. For these reasons, it is easier to learn Taiji for health only. And just aside, what this gentleman prefers here is no taiji and only harms people.

Sorry but tai chi is not effective...why you not show normal sparring vs boxer?

Very UNREALISTIC!

Tai chi is a martial discipline and when practiced correctly can create exceptional energy (chi ) that is centred around the lower belly. The movement builds strength, speed and heightens ones ability to read the telegraphing of an enemy’s attacks. You learn how to create space and readiness when being harassed. But the readiness has to be kept very inconspicuous until the very last moment! Be careful not to antagonise with a flash stance, as it can make a bad situation worse! Be humble and loose, but crack like a whip when needs be. Pacifying is the best form of Defence. Tai chi is taught by many people but its true essence is not. Never compare one discipline against another, but compare the disciplined against the none!

I came here to learn how to 'water bend’ as an avatar the last air bender character and even I’m confused/disappointed

In many years no one had ever thought of dodging a fist by moving 45 degrees. This video is revolutionary. Thank you, master.

He demonstrated two things. A slip followed by a counter and fast twitch muscle training to increase the effectiveness of the counter. This is then compared to boxing. Which also has slips/counters/ and fast twitch muscle training. The key take away is martial arts is composed of combat and art. If you breakdown the art you will be able to see the combative application. Though not all people choose to practice the combative nature of the martial "art" it's still there. Boxing is a sport. It is comprised of special rules such as safety gear (boxing gloves), a ring, rules, and timed bouts. The only way to "beat" a boxer is to be a better boxer than the boxer you are fighting. It's like comparing basketball vs football... they're different they shouldn't be compared at face value. Finally if you just so happened to find yourself in a street fight with a boxer remember boxing is a sport. Street fights comprise of no rules, weapons, the environment, foul play, unfair match ups, and potentially multiple enemies. You could be the best boxer, tai chi dude, mma fighter, etc. At the end of the day a street fight is a street fight. Only the people who understand there are no rules and are willing to do anything to survive will come out on top.

I love Jake, nuff said.

Tai chi is so effective that everyone uses it on the ufc 😂

You would stand no chance. Tai chi it's good for your health and wellbeing, not for fighting. Even though you can use some techniques in a fight but it will not help you against boxer or MMA fighter. You need muscle and fighting skills. Breathe in breathe out will give you black eye and bleeding nose.

Ottimo video finalmente. Ormai fanno vedere solo fantasticherie assurde. Personalmente dico che è un ottimo video perché amo la boxe, la pratico amatorialmente da 30 anni forse di più. Ma da almeno 5 anni studio Tai Chi con uno bravo come nel video in questione. Sembra una stupidaggine ma se questi movimenti li pratichi veramente in caso di pericolo viene poi istintivo e senza che vi rendiate conto vi siete difesi e allontanato l'aggressore il tanto che basta per andarsene se volete andare ovviamente. Ho 41 anni mi reputo una persona corretta, e spesso melo sento dire ,o fare complimenti. Ma i pochi che mi hanno aggredito sono finiti faccia a terra grazie agli allenamenti.

Bravo ! Really fantastic …

I wouldnt advise anyone to use these strategies / techniques against a boxer.

This work perfect, when in slow motion... But impossible in real life

I don't feel the weight, the power of this man's Sneeze lol🤣🤣 3:32 Btw this really cool

4:27 that “part the horses main” would be absolutely devastating

I bet those short, backhand, slaps to the ribs, from a tai chi guy who never hist a bag and never fights would really sting. They would probably leave a red mark on your skin and after knocking out the tai chi master, you might want to put some Bactine on them.

Do that to Deontay Wilder 😂

i’m gonna be honest, boxing is much more realistic and much more effective

The main thing that concerns me about this video, is that a boxers jab comes back very quick and gives time for repositioning and defence. I'd think for it to be more effective against a jab, you'd have to slip and strike at the same time. It would have also been nice to get some input from the boxer about the techniques.

I'd rather use an ordianry boxing slip than that complicated 45 slip Tai Chi. I try doing that. Its slower and seldomly works.

this dude is bogus

THANK U. SLIPPING THE PUNCHES , TIMING THE PUNCHES ARE THE BEGINNING SKILL FROM THERE THE ATTACKS I. WILL BE PRACTICING

That vibration punch looks like a good workout.

It's stagnant drills like this that makes a lot of traditional martial arts useless in a real fight. It's all an illusion. If you really want to test a technique, you need to make sure the guy punching you is really trying to punch you😀 It's not about the system you're training in per se, rather it's about your methodology of training.

When my Character attacks in a video game 3:35

When you vibrate, are you not lessening the kinetic energy that could be used in a more powerful strike?

are this moves are only effective for fights that needs pauses or u have to practice stopping time to do this in reality ?

Do it in real speed! Slow motion boxing doesn't exist. Jab cross left hook. Jab cross low kick. That is what boxing is about. Combos. In full speed it's devastating.

😂😂😂 tai chi guys get beaten up everywhere

Jake . . I trained in traditional Shotokan / Aikido / Ninpo tai-jutsu since I was 13, hustled 4 different p/t thru HS, rode my bicycle thru rain, sleet or snow to HS, home to prep dinners I NEVER got to eat, then off the the dojo, THEN work afterwards until 11 or midnight, thru rain, sleet or snow & got thru HS on 4-5 hours sleep per night. OK, summer was more hours worked & a bit more sleep, but I had to pay for class-tuition, uniforms, tests, weapons, food, dental, medical, contacts, guitar lessons, clothing and bike tires 3+x yearly. My HS prom night, I taught / assisted the tail-end of a 90 minute children's class (my warm up), did the 90 minute 6pm class, then rode off to 7-11 to work until 1am, turning down beer sales to my HS classmates. Long Island winter snowstorms were RARE: NOT to have a good 2-footer at least once, and I showed up for a 6pm adult class on my 10-speed during a 2-footer, ZERO adults showed in their cars & I got a "private lesson" with my sensei, then he took me out for dinner afterwards . . At 16 y/old. as a brown belt, I taught adult classes with several black belts as "students", when my sensei got caught up in traffic, picking up his classmates from the airport. So, I guess you can say, I've "been around the block", a few times. WHAT you did to this beginner VICTIM: June 14, 2017, (student is a real stretch, because UNLESS he is your brother-in-law & he'll be "back for more freebies", I'd be SHOCKED to see this guy return for more humiliation & exploitation from you), was NOTHING short of mocking his lack of stamina / fitness and self aggrandizing your innate athletic ability. Because: THAT is ALL you did, in this video. Which is KIND of like a sociopath. Gee, did you "set the stage" by suggesting he down a hefty breakfast, before you did a 40+ minute abdominal-crush routine on him?? Do YOU have any recollection of your first weeks or month of training?? Do you give ANY thought to a moderate warm-up, progressing into a feel-out-your-student's agility, before jumping into a stress test? I saw an EASY dozen opportunities for YOU to suggest / correct his breathing patterns, where YOU clearly exhaled during an exertion, then smirked & smiled as he held his breath during each kick, punch or torsional twist . . And that sociopathic SMIRK got even bigger, when he paused to hold down his vomit. And you showed complete INDIFFERENCE when he BEGAN to puke. Even a gay-boy-lover would hold his head while vomiting, after he'd mouth raped his throat. But YOU, Jake . . you made him VOMIT, then gloated & titled the video how "he wanted to fight . . I made him vomit". Class fucking act. You know what they say?? "Those that CAN fight, DO". I walked away from 3X 3-on-1 fights before I was 11, BEFORE I could start working to pay for Budo instruction, 6 nights weekly. "Those that CAN'T fight, teach" . . which is a REAL stretch in YOUR case, since IF you were a half-assed DECENT sifu, you'd have 1 or more successful schools, and a few hundred loyal students. But INSTEAD . . You flash your psychopath colors & post videos of how athletic you are, and crush any/all potential beginner-students, by monetizing their 1st day attempts. NOTE: I said you ARE athletic . . . but attributing any martial SKILL SETS to you would be a REAL fucking stretch. Master Ken's Private Parts offers BETTER instruction on YT, than you. I'd have wiped your snot off the mats, when I was 15 as a purple belt. Try speeding up your video feeds, it'll make you appear more . . ade
