Generation 3 - Li Sanjian, The Bodyguard of Praying Mantis Kung Fu 李三剪 李技成 螳螂拳

Please enjoy this look into Generation 3 of our line of martial arts teachers. If you want to support these kinds of videos, feel free to pick up something from our shop (much thanks): https://theravenswoodacademy.com/shop Of course a youtube video isn't a scholarly journal article where you are expected to list every academic source you drew on; still, I feel compelled to give special thanks and recognition to Laurent Chircop-Reyes, Paul Brennan and Will Wain-Williams, all whose work the last few years has helped create this video and give a clearer picture of bodyguards in 19th century China (as always, any mistakes are my own). Cheers!
