Sal Canzonieri - Teaching seminar on Shaolin martial arts - 2


In Valencia Spain, a few years back, teaching a seminar on Shaolin Chan Yuan Qigong (for Johan's class), explaining the self defense aspects hidden in the Qigong movements. Chan Yuan means "Zen' Circular Skills. It pre-dates Taiji Quan and has similar movements and ideas within it.

Shaolin Wu Bu Quan body mechanics workshop by Sal Canzonieri


This video was from a workshop I did last year about improper body mechanics and how to do them correctly instead. For this clip, I was showing a Long Fist training set and next the Shaolin Wu Bu Quan as an example. I explained detail by detail instructions during the rest of the workshop and helped people to correct the bad habits or incorrect information they received. I showed tons of applications and usage of the postural movements, on each level: first fist and kicks, then as takedowns. Note: I didn't know I was being taped by the student, hence the jokes and silly comments. As you can see, I keep things casual. (BTW, I am over 50 years old, started learning in 1975)

After breaking up, guitarist Sal Canzonieri went on to form the popular garage punk group, Electric Frankenstein. Visit their Myspace: www.myspace.com

Luohan Quan Qi Lu - Liu Zhenhai


Luohan Quan Qi Lu - from Liu Zhenhai series of Luohan Quan 7 VCDs For some weird reason this set is essentially the same as the first HALF of the Shaolin Da Mei Hua Quan set. I think that the set was mislabeled as a Luohan set, as I see no specific Luohan Quan postures in this set at all. It has all Mei Hua Quan posters.

Shaolin Chan Yuan Quan 少林禅圆拳


Description (by student of Zhu Tian Xi) of Shaolin Chan Yuan Quan (Zen / Chan Circle Boxing, a type of Rou Quan soft boxing method for both self defense and Nei Gong health exercises. "Chan Yuan" also means "circular", using a different character for "Chan" (most likely the original way). Shown are stepping methods, body moving methods, hand methods, footwork methods, whole body movement, etc. This is REAL authentic ancient style Shaolin, before it turned to dance routines and acrobatics. This is for kicking ass .

Shaolin Luohan Quan Yi Lu (from Shi Degen lineage)


This is a short version of the real Shaolin Luohan Quan Yi Lu set that was originally taught by Shi Degen. Zhu Tian Xi teaches this set as well (he was direct disciple of Shi Degen). This set is not the like what modern Shaolin calls Xiao Luohan Quan (which is just an abbreviated version of the much bigger Da Luohan Quan set). This video is of the original set that is called Xiao Luohan Quan in the Tagou books. Too bad it is not the full version with all the postures shown.

Shaolin Luohan Quan San Lu - Liu Zhenhai (same as 1st part of Luohan Quan Yi Lu of Shi DeGen )


Shaolin Luohan Quan San Lu from Liu Zhenhai series of Luohan Quan 7 vcds. This set is the same as the 1st part of the Luohan Quan Yi Lu that was taught by Shi DeGen and Zhu Tianxi (and also the same as the first part of the Xiao Luohan set shown in the Tagou school books). It covers the first 39 postures of the Yi Lu set, but is very much abbreviated.

Shaolin Tongbi Quan from Liu Zhenhai vcds - sections 1, 2, & 3


Shaolin Tongbi Quan from Liu Zhenhai vcds - sections 1, 2, & 3. Referred to as Xiao Tongbi Quan in his vcds, but it is not the same as the usual set that is called Shaolin Xiao Tongbi Quan (also called the Shaolin Tongbi Quan Yi Lu set) everywhere else. Right now what these three sets are and their relationship to what is commonly known as Shaolin Xiao and Dao Tongbi Quan is a mystery to me. I recently discovered that the ER LU set shown here (middle set) is the same as the Shaolin Tai Zu Chang Quan ER LU set. Very strange!
