He's like 80 and moves like a dam ninja. I gotta get in on some Arnis

[myballshurt]

Hes actually showing his skills in real time not in slow mo like others. Truly a man of skill

[michaelskasick]

Zero wasted movement. Maximum results with minimum energy invested. Absolutely gorgeous to watch.

Bro found the perfect stick as a kid and never let it go

[gaijininja]

Right at the end, Grandmaster had a slight smile. You could see he was happy at the student’s improvement.

First thing I thought is, "now that's a real master". So many fakes and here is a man who doesn't just have skill, he has speed and reflexes after a life of mastering his art. I love watching clips like this

[cyruahawkins]

“Imma take it easy on this old guy” -Famous last words

[mrhawkins]

If his hands move like that at his current age, that man definitely handicapped some folks in his prime 😂

[squallx]

Some masters speak really fast while explaining the quick moves yet this Master was explaining it as if he is just having a conversation while drinking tea. A real master indeed.

[scottnepereny]

It strikes me how calm his voice is during this.

[hannotn]

That's a genuine fighting system. Not an art, but a very efficient way to approach physical conflict with another human being.

[I_HAD]

Master Oogway really just out here finding the next dragon warrior.

[CameronkAK]

Can we al just appreciate how skilled the other guy was as well. He may have been folded but he still folds all of us.

[fxst]

One of the greatest martial arts teacher of all time. BALINTAWAK. Thank you sir.

[jordanplatt]

The man is a legend and a master If I am ever able to meet him no words just bow to him out of absolute respect. 👍🙏

[whostolemynick]

If star wars needed another jedi master, he's the one

[couhqsy]

I see the master never stopped teaching his young students❤

[ramslucas]

Been doing eskrima sense I was 8 I’m 43 and still loving it!

This is the guy that trains Call of Duty operators to use the Kali sticks.
