So what happens to your function if you do some Kung Fu fighting? Tai Chi Chuan is one of the most extensively studied martial arts and the slow movements place an emphasis on cognitive processing, leading to improvements in memory and function. Those trained in karate show improved one-leg standing balance compared with those in other activities (swimmers) where active balance and postural control are not key. Forearm bone density, handgrip strength, and balance control were shown to be greater in Wing Chun practitioners in comparison to untrained folks. On average, training in martial arts movements lowers the risk of falls while improving quality of life and functional capacity.

I will never forget the amazing stories Master Nance told about the Shaolin monks. These Chinese monks are renowned for their kung fu fighting skills. Lore tells that these Buddhists trained in secret by disguising their training program as chores. They carried water, chopped wood, and hammered nails as a way to prepare to defend their land and temples should it become necessary. Across many decades, these Buddhist monks gained followers to their belief system and had thousands of acres of prime property that more than one Chinese and Russian monarch coveted.

Look at Oren over the past 10 years: they literally went from the Dark Ages to Victorian Europe. I wouldn't be surprised if guns were added to the game at this point, so I don't see why people can't do kung fu chi magic, especially with there being an in-game Asian-based community now.

According to Lopon Jigme Tingdzin, the head administrator of the abbey as well as the dance master who maintains and teaches the dances, the Gyalwang Drukpa entrusted the nuns to perform religious rituals and prayers back in 2001. Then, two years later, he personally began teaching them cham as part of the rituals they were learning. After observing nuns in Vietnam practicing kung fu, he initiated kung fu training for the Drukpa nuns in 2008.

The 350 nuns currently at Druk Amitabha adhere to a demanding schedule. They begin each day at 3 a.m. with meditation and morning puja (ritual). Following breakfast, they attend classes in sacred dance, mandala offerings, English, Tibetan, kung fu, etc. After lunch they carry on with classes, text memorization, evening puja, another two hours of meditation, and bed at 10 p.m. A mere couple of tea breaks punctuate the afternoon and evening.

AdvertisingĀ  Zhang Ziyi once starred in a Visa ad where she is served a soup that is too salty for her, prompting the entire restaurant staff (especially the chef who feels very insulted) to gang up on her, resulting in kung fu mayhem.note In case you're wondering about why there is kung fu, bear in mind that this ad was made not long after Zhang Ziyi found success by starring in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

Anime & MangaĀ  The Dragon Ball series. Everybody from the little old man to the evil bubble gum alien seems to know Kung Fu. The now-defunct MMORPG Dragon Ball Online, set over two centuries after the end of DBZ, justified this: two decades after the end of the series, Gohan published a book which taught the general populace about Ki Manipulation. This lead to Goten and Trunks founding a school centered around ki-control swordfighting; 15 years later, students of this school were instrumental in driving off an invasion attempt by the remnants of Frieza's forces, which lead to a wide-spread interest in Supernatural Martial Arts, which lead to Krillin and Tien Shinhan founding new schools of Turtle- and Crane-style martial arts. Add in wide-spread Saiyan genes, and you have a species that literally has fighting in its blood. Ikki Tousen, good God. Pretty much every person that gets any amount of time can be seen fighting at some point or another (and that's counting the minor ones). Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple. Subverted in some characters, like Niijima or the girl who has a crush on Kenichi, but pretty much the whole cast has knowledge of martial arts, even Shigure's mouse. Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha ViVid gives us a glimpse of what non-military life in Mid-Childa is like through the eyes of Nanoha's daughter. After a few chapters, it becomes this. That duo of girls? Heir to the Dojo of an ancient martial art and a Golem manipulator who could also fight as a Ditto Fighter in close combat The Blithe Spirit nun-in-training? Tonfa-based Warrior Monk Trickster speedster. The Ojou? Literal Magic Knight fighting style passed down from Ancient Belka. The only named new character who hasn't been revealed to have a fighting style of some sort so far is The Ojou's butler, who is a very minor person. The Mons genre in general. Every opponent the main character meet will inevitably have a theme to their item or pet, which they will invariably ALSO be a martial arts master in this style as well. As they scream out the names of the attacks their item or pet does, they will also (pointlessly) perform shadow fighting techniques to point out how kick-ass they are. Perhaps to convince us (and themselves) that they're not just, you know, fighting with cards and plastic toys. Although in the case of Yu-Gi-Oh!, many characters actually are good fighters, which was particularly relevant in the first few volumes of the manga and the Toei anime. Jounouchi is a skilled street fighter who knocks out a trained assassin and keeps up against a Leather Face expy, Honda isn't exactly a wuss either, Kaiba kicks the crap out of a couple of people, Anzu throws some mean punches, Yami Yugi is hinted at being quite capable (particularly in the Toei anime, where he has no troubles slamming his puzzle into the wall or kicking the daylights out of two of Kaiba's mooks who were twice his size (off-screen, sadly) and Yami Bakura wasn't exactly weak either; let's not even start bringing up their past selves, who were all without a doubt trained in combat. Naruto is a justified example, considering that most of the events takes place in hidden villages completely organized around training Highly-Visible Ninja. Ranma . Everyone knows some martial art variation, from Anything Goes Tea Ceremony to Martial Arts Figure Skating. You name it, it's a martial art. Even calligraphy. YuYu Hakusho: The Demon World to the extent that all out war is averted by a tournament that is nearly as violent because no one knows how else to go about things. Even in the Living World, Yusuke and Kuwabara solve their problems by fighting.

FilmĀ  In Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, every anchorman apparently keeps weapons on their person, at all times. Happens quite frequently in the Burton/Schumacher Batman films. While roughly half the arch-villains (Joker, Penguin and Riddler especially) are very unathletic and/or physically weak, their Mooks are often improbably masters of kung fu, karate, and various other styles, some of them even wielding katanas. For Batman Returns, Burton even had to hire ten (mostly) nameless guys from a Hollywood dojo specifically for a fight scene. Gets really ridiculous in Batman Forever, where an entire street gang who spend most of their time threatening and mugging teenage girls are all skilled at kendo and various forms of hand-to-hand combat. A more realistic approach was taken in Nolan's Batman films, where the Mooks for the most part don't know how to fight and just rely on guns. Blade has Blade repeatedly fighting scores of mooks with martial arts. Vampires don't seem to hand out many guns to their minions. The climax of Blazing Saddles. After the "fake Rock Ridge" is blown up by the Waco Kid, Sheriff Bart leads every single one of the townspeople in a wild and confused attack on Hedley Lamarr's gang. Even the women throw punches, the preacher knees some guy in the groin (immediately asking God to forgive him for that), and the town drunk knocks a thug simply by breathing on him. The free-for-all eventually literally Breaks The Fourth Wall - not that there was much of one, to begin with - onto the Warner Brothers studio lot where Blazing Saddles is being filmed, with other productions being swept up in the turmoil and everyone eventually fighting their way into the studio cafeteria, where one of the cooks just happens to have a huge tray of custard pies handy so the entire cast can throw pies at each other. Lampshaded at the end of Bowfinger. They're making a film in Taiwan, where all the locals know kung-fu. The Westerners are shown as painfully bad at it, but still mowing through mobs of extras. Chocolate, another Thai martial-arts film from the director of Ong-Bak. Everyone on the streets of Bangkok, from warehouse laborers to butchers to gangsters, is a martial artist of some kind (except for the transvestite gangbangers, who use guns). Almost all of them have their ass handed to them by an autistic teenaged girl. Enter the Dragon ends with a massive kung fu battle. On one side you have Han's army of martial arts students, trained to kill mercilessly with their bare hands. On the other side you have... a bunch of vagrants and runaways, kidnapped from the streets of Hong Kong and freshly released from Han's dungeons. And Bruce Lee. The two sides appear to be about evenly matched. One of the staples of Jackie Chan's films is him playing a kung fu fighting cop. Jackie Chan's opponents tend to come from all walks of life, including accountants. It's never really explained why there just happens to be a Kung Fu school in the middle of a 6th-century English town, in King Arthur: Legend of the Sword but it is very convenient when Arthur is being chased by the Evil King's men, is on the verge of being overrun and needs refuge and back up in order to escape. Played to hilarious, awesome excess in Kung Fu Hustle. The local mobsters make the mistake of trying to extort money from an apartment building where no less than six people are kung fu masters. Kung Fu Hip Hop features kung fu fighting hip hop dancers. Miami Connection is the simple timeless story of a taekwondo rock band having to fight against street thugs and drug-dealing biker ninjas. Nearly everyone in it knows martial arts, even a nightclub owner and assorted extras. You can easily tell that most of the characters are played by martial artists, not actors. Justified in The Matrix due to the training programs, where people can simply download the necessary skills. The Raid: It seems that every single petty criminal inside the slummy apartment run by a drug lord that the movie takes place in is well versed in martial arts. It just so happens that the protagonist is better at them. Rising Sun: Since Japan Takes Over the World, everyone is apparently learning karate as well. The Japanophile Connor is an expert, and the ordinary cop Web is also inexplicably an expert. The pair bypass a bouncer who brags about his black belt via some Combat Pragmatism. The film also adds a gratuitous scene where Connor and Web fistfight some mooks sent by the Japanese. Happens a little more than two-thirds of the way through Disney's The Rocketeer when some gangsters try to shake down a diner. A fistfight breaks out, and everyone in the diner joins the action, including the kitchen staff who come out swinging their frying pans. Rush Hour 3: Carter clearly knows how to fight by now against other fighting experts. He even breaks into song afterward. A plot point in the movie Shaolin Soccer: the hero wants to spread Shaolin Kung Fu and points out to a soccer coach how it could be used to improve peoples' lives (like avoiding Banana Peels and parallel parking). After they win a soccer tournament with an entire team of Shaolin monks, the hero gets his wish, and we get a Montage of people using kung fu in their everyday lives. In the English dub, the song that plays in the background is a cover of "Kung Fu Fighting" by Carl Douglas. The film also features a woman who uses tai chi to cook and play goalie. Basically every Shaw Brothers martial arts films with the word "Shaolin" in it's title, ever since the success of The Shaolin Temple (1976) and The 36th Chamber of Shaolin. Everyone is a fighter, may they be waiters, labourers, cooks... Played with in the 2008 Speed Racer film, as everyone in the Racer family is able to prodigiously defend themselves against enemy racers, ninjas, etc. Most of them somehow know Kung Fu, although Pops uses his wrestling pedigree to kick ass with Good Old Fisticuffs. The exception is the Racers' mechanic Sparky, who is totally useless in a fight and repeatedly has to be bailed out by his infinitely more skilled companions. 2351a5e196
