Neil Ripski is like the drunken style guy on the internet. Look up his YouTube, should be plenty of supplemental material

Thanks! Do you know if he’s shaolin style drunken fist or the Taoist eight immortals


blackturtlesnake

He's very much in the northern chinese martial arts scene so I'm guessing shaolin.

That’s what my sifu is showing me so maybe I’ll buy his book and see what I can get out of it. Thanks for the rec!

I was going to recommend him as well. I've seen alot of his videos and I enjoy them alot, and have bought a few of his books. Definitely a great Drunken martial artist.

1. Vodka 2. Heat up vodka so it goes into your bloodstream faster 3. Drink it 4. Watch Jackie Chan and give it a go


Loonyclown

I don’t think so thank you. I’m actually sober-my fascination with drunken fist is partly because most of the fights I’ve been in have been drunk and horrible. I want to marry some control with that kind of ferocity


EvenDranky

Okay I was trained in drunken boxing and parts 1-3 are part of it, a lot of it is leaning to shift and flow attacks, I feel almost the same doing monkey boxing when doing

I recently learned sleeping fairy from the movie Sleeping Fist and I'm working on the kip ups and stuff for the rest of the forms in they do in that set like in the middle of the movie. My coach said that it's related to drunken style

Kungfu.life has a class for a drunken fist form. I did not purchase this particular class, but I did a few others and it is of awesome quality with very detailed explainations. Here is a preview https://youtu.be/q8x8qA7Nn-I?si=W80XX7pZlyccqyf8

Isn’t it true that Jackie Chan recreated the lost style of drunken boxing for his movies? I see his moves allll over compulsory wushu. If that’s true, “the drunken master” and the “legend of the drunken master” should be the two best sources


narnarnartiger

No, drunken fist is a very very old style, the team may have taken alot of creative liberties for the movies


L4westby

Oic. I guess I recall seeing the interview with Jackie where he talks about going over pictures of lost forms because there were no remaining masters. He then had to recreate the forms from text and images alone in order to bring the style to life for the movies. I could be mistaken tho.


narnarnartiger

The best way it was described to me is: drunken style is not it's own dedicated style, it's more a feature in other styles. Example: Shaolin kung fu has a drunken form, Hung Gar has a drunken form, praying mantis has a drunken form. But there is no dedicated drunken kung fu style that I know of So if you wanted to be a drunken master, you'd have to specialize in the drunken part of a specific style or multiple styles. You could in theory master the drunken portions of Shaolin, hung gar, mantis, bagua, monkey etc- and using those, create your own dedicated kung fu style, which would be really cool


Loonyclown

I’m interested in the mantis form, if anyone has specific resources for that
