Yang Mian System – Explosive Internal Power you can Hear, See & Feel –
Develop a powerful & more durable body whilst healing serious debilitating injuries, limitations & weaknesses. Increase body function potential, resilience to impact, joint strength/ mobility, speed, elastic force, stronger bones, tendons and ligaments, strengthen rooting power, improve immune system, power & awareness, build confidence & self defense skills which are gained quickly with Yang Mian training.
Steel Hand – Develops hands, fingers, wrists & arms so they can deliver devastating power without injury, in addition power is administered @ high speed with relaxed arms, giving the impression the arms are made of flexible rubber which feels like steel. The source of power is spring power & centrifugal force.
Steel hand work is dedicated towards serious self defense. It is not a sport. Development in this area allows normal looking hands to break river rocks with just 2 fingers. Power that will stay with you even after you’ve stopped training as it’s developed in what is known as the ‘living way’
Elbow System – The Calligraphy Elbow System is initially based on 10 pairs of elbows that are powered by instant, explosive power connected through your 3 Dimensional link to the DanTian.
This is a Chinese style of kung fu which incorporates Principles of Shaolin & Taoist Gong Fu.
Y.M.S is a relaxed & free flowing internal style that develops and utilises chi. Simulating the brush strokes of Chinese Calligraphy writing, a practitioners movements flow like water, spontaneous, fast and powerful.
Y.M.S is Based on Principles, not forms. Once you comprehend this internal art (Nei Kung) movements will come naturally as your kinetic chain becomes highly developed. Power will emanate from within naturally drawing people to your positive energy.
These Calligraphy Elbows can be linked to any other system within Yang Mian including Steel Body, Calligraphy Grappling and Reflex Mind. This system gives an exceptional result for smaller male and female practitioners. This is due to the sharp and heavy nature of elbowing and the base power behind their delivery. The linking of these elbows is artistic in nature, looking like you are sculpting or painting.
The Calligraphy Elbow System has three separate levels of development, shown below;
- Basic elbows: this is each elbow being generated from the Dantian, with a power sound. This is the foundation of the elbow system and advancement cannot occur until this is complete.
- Linked elbows: this is the elbows joined together in 3 to 7 linked movements. This training creates an automatic response in an attack situation with one elbow hooking onto the next. The minimum delivery time for three elbows is one second.
- Dragon Elbow: this is all the elbows linked together, through unbroken three-dimensional movement. These elbows are generated from within the Dantian and are merely a shadow of it. Because of the ‘wave-like’ pressure and speed generated by Dragon Elbow, an attacker will be over-whelmed as each one cuts and sculpts their body.
Freestyle – is the basic step towards the development of reflex mind. Before being able achieve reflex mind the practitioner needs to understand how to drive their body, arms, hands and legs. This also includes the internal organs and Dantian (Action Mind) as the driving force. Yang Mian’s freestyle method teaches how to move without stopping.
As the feeling of ‘not stopping’ begins, the practitioner starts to set up cell’s memory through a connection to the Dantian. This means that Qi (accumulated at the Dantian) is starting to circulate through the body’s movements. Once the practitioner has linked together continued, unbroken movement, the Dantian and Qi circulation then Fa-jing can be applied to any movement, or action, instantly. This includes the application, and synergising, of fa-jing in the calligraphy elbow system, calligraphy grappling, steel body and hand.
Freestyle can be observed and performed as a ‘moving meditation’. It is also directly linked to the health and vitality of the human body. This is facilitated by commanding the three base circulations of the body; blood circulation (Qi), mental circulation (non-stopping) and digestive circulation (internal organs).
Calligraphy Grappling – Developed through three philosophies;
- Unbroken, three-dimensional Chinese Calligraphy (continued, unbroken writing).
- The dynamics of an eel in the water; wrapping itself around any joint in the human body, breaking it subconsciously with explosive Fa-jing.
- Sensitivity or “Ting-jing” feeling. This is reaching into the realm of pre-cognition and is the type of sensitivity that does not require eyesight.
This system is powered by Dantian Fa-jing and moulds to the movement or body position of the opponent, with the ability to change direction automatically to match. This is why sensitivity is such a necessary component of Calligraphy Grappling.
Calligraphy Grappling does not rely on physical strength instead it is a combination of Dantian/Fa-jing, together with strength. This Fa-jing power is what makes Calligraphy Grappling so devastating. Joints, ligaments and tendons are broken, snapped, or even removed in a three-dimensional spiral that leaves permanent, life-long damage. Because this system is based on Master Yang’s principal point, it links to his other areas of elbows, steel body and reflex mind.
Healing – A mix of powerful and gentle exercise (Neijia, Nei Kung) are used to open the body, regulate
blood flow, release muscular tension, lengthen & strengthen tendons & ligaments, improve blood
oxygenation to combat asthma etc, also improving immune system and organ function. The results are
always impressive.
SUMMARY
The foundations of the Yang Mian system are commenced in the cultivation of “base power”. This is power you can hear, see and feel. Anyone standing within 50m of you will hear this power and is similar to a bomb going off. This is also known as instant fa-jing. The longer this is practiced; the louder the sound becomes, and the more explosive and stronger your power is generated. This power can be built up quickly (within 12 months) and once you have this, it stays with you for the rest of your life. This is because the training has been programmed into your ‘cell’s memory’ or DNA blueprint.
The Yang Mian™ System is a unique internal martial arts system that develops internal energy through natural movement. This is then expressed, combatively, in a living, three-dimensional way. It teaches to store, cultivate, produce and utilise this internal energy which is unlimited in its application. It can be applied in the martial arts, manifesting externally as instant explosive power, speed, power transfer and Fa-jing. Likewise it can be used internally, manifesting as health, healing, vitality and longevity.
This internal, instant Fa-jing is the fuel of martial arts and a key factor that is missed by most external martial systems. This is the martial arts highest level; where the practitioner can control explosive power, at will, into any action. This is not the same as physical strength, which can never be ‘owned’ and diminishes with age. Yang Mian is an expert in teaching this explosive base power method. We guarantee this result through correct training through a certified instructor.
Once base power has been established, Yang Mian starts developing linked movement. These movements are very quick; flowing in a soft, unbroken manner (the same philosophy as unbroken Chinese calligraphy writing) and finding their way, through an opponent, like water flowing down a hillside. The driving force, or engine, behind the strikes and flowing movements is the Dantian or ‘Action Mind’ energy centre of the body. Over time, the training manifests in what is known as ‘reflex mind’, which is a precursor to the much coveted ’empty mind’.
The Yang Mian System transforms the body, making it ‘rubber-like’. Combining this physiological state with base power allows for instant power transfer into any target. This penetrates internally, like a hammer driving a nail into a piece of wood. The training develops the ability of the body to both deliver and absorb great shocks and heavy blows without injury to itself. Moreover, its healing potential is amazing and rejuvenates the body’s joints, ligaments, tendons and muscles through improved blood and oxygen circulation.
The Yang Mian System has no age, body shape/weight, or gender limitations. This is because once internal energy has been cultivated your power will be strong and dangerous, regardless of those conditions. Our training can be tailored to meet your needs. Moreover, movements are all economical, effective and have multiple uses. Additionally they;
- Can be practiced alone
- Require no equipment
- Require no gymnasiums
- Increase bodily tolerance to impact
- Improve explosive momentum
- Increase well-being
