Channel Title: Monkey Steals Peach Channel Description: My name is Will and for the past 15 yearsI have been travelling Asia seeking out, documenting and researching old styles of martial arts. I want to share my training, travel & martial arts research and experiences with you, in the hope I may be able to dispell some myths, and make it more accessible. In the age of the internet, there's a lot of hype, clickbait and misleading information. Through Monkey Steals Peach®, I set out to do the complete opposite: to present Chinese martial arts "warts and all", to show how they are practiced, what their revelance is today, and what is their place in modern Asia. <video> Luoyang: One of the oldest cities in all of Asia Description: Luoyang was the capital of China for many dynasties, going right back to the earliest parts of history. In this video I look at the Sui Dynasty, a period when much of the culture that would characterise the Tang stated to take hold.

For the past decade I have been travelling Asia seeking out, documenting and researching old styles of martial arts. I want to share my training, travel & martial arts research and experiences with you, in the hope I may be able to dispell some myths, and make it more accessible. In the age of the internet, there's a lot of hype, clickbait and misleading information. Through my website and Youtube channel, I set out to the complete opposite: to present Chinese martial arts "warts and all", to show how they are practiced, what their revelance is to Chinese history, and what is their place in modern China. This will be an ongoing project, but will begin with some interviews here in China where I'm based. This will focus on northern Chinese kung fu styles and will showcase authentic old school styles in their raw form. This trailer was produced by Douglas Ferguson of DAF21 Films.

However, it is now proven that other, independent, advanced civilisations were present in China over 3000 years ago.
