What do you get when you cross Kung Fu with Basketball? You get a rhythmic and enchanting blend of sports showmanship unlike any you've ever seen before. Beijing local Shen Guoqing and his troupe showcased his newly invented sport, a unique mix of Kung-Fu and Basketball, during a practice session in the city on Friday. Demonstrating the sport at the Free Heart Freestyle Basketball Club, an association he founded to spread the practice to the Chinese population, Guoqing said that the idea was inspired by a Tai Chi Ball practice he was shown at university. Since then, he has gathered together a team of martial arts practitioners and worked overtime to develop the new Kung Fu basketball sport. Kung Fu basketball isn't the first time that martial arts masters have mixed Kung Fu with a Western Sport. Does anyone remember the cult classic Shaolin Soccer? According to legend, Chinese martial arts first began around the year 2700 BC. However, the first documented references to Kung Fu can be dated back to the 5th century BC. Basketball is becoming increasingly popular in China in large part thanks to Chinese all-star Yao Ming. Kung Fu basketball hopes to connect the excitement to Chinese culture. Who wants to see these Kung Fu basketball masters take on the Harlem Globetrotters?
Have you ever heard the phrase 'balls of steel'? Well, Chinese Kung Fu Master Wei Yaobin has spent the last 10 years building a reputation as the incarnation of that phrase. He teaches his extreme style, called ‘Iron Crotch Kung Fu,’ in the Chinese city of Luoyang, where he owns and runs a Kung Fu studio. His specialty is teaching students how to take powerful hits to one's nether-regions. Students of ‘Iron Crotch Kung Fu’ subject themselves to repeated strong blows to their genitalia with all sorts of different objects, including bricks and even log rams. Contrary to your instincts, this jaw-dropping practice is actually believed to be good for male sexual health. 'Iron Crotch Kung Fu' enthusiasts say the practice could cure erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation. Do you think you could handle Iron Crotch Kung Fu?
Kung fu masters in Beijing fear that martial arts will die out as they struggle to ensure the art form is passed on to the next generation.
