98-year-old Kung Fu Grandma from Ningbo, Zhejiang Province went abroad. How did this old woman become popular?

I saw a group of videos of a 98-year-old grandmother boxing in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province on foreign video websites. Many netizens commented below that this is a precious national culture. The old woman lives in a small village in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province. Almost all people in the village can fight boxing, and Xiaohong boxing is their foundation. In fact, at that time, many people learned boxing only for self-defense and physical fitness, and it was preserved as a traditional culture at that time. Grandma began to practice boxing at the age of five. She studied under the guidance of her parents at that time. Before practicing Little Red Boxing, the first thing to do is to stand on the horse stance just look up, which is now commonly known as standing pile. After getting up every morning, she stood on the horse stance just look for an hour, and then she began to work in the fields. Then the master will look at the apprentice's state and teach boxing slowly.

This video of grandma boxing was also forwarded by Zhao, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, on social networking sites. It is worthy of people's pride to carry forward the national culture. I hope more young people can pass it on from generation to generation. Grandma and her little son took part in the local dance competition, and grandma took part as the referee. She exchanged views with many local young people and even foreign friends. Although grandma looks thin and gray-haired, her eyes are bright, her face is red, she stands firmly, and her strokes and gestures are extremely powerful, especially her fists, and she can feel the strength of her hands.

Think about it. It is a skill accumulated by martial arts practitioners who persist in practicing for nearly 90 years every day. It seems ordinary, but in fact it has a deep foundation. Her youngest son, Mr. Lin, said that her mother still insists on getting up at 5 o'clock every morning to practice boxing for an hour, and then comes to see them.

Grandma and her little son actually want to pass this boxing to the third generation of grandchildren, but today's young people are not interested in this boxing. Maybe they studied for a while when they were young, but they didn't finish it after all. In order not to lose this set of kung fu, Mr. Lin recorded it completely. Teacher Lin is frank, because grandma is 98 years old. In fact, she doesn't remember all the boxing methods, but she has recorded most of the main boxing methods and routines as much as possible. In order to let other martial arts practitioners who love boxing pass on these traditional cultures.

Every day, many young martial arts practitioners can be seen practicing in blank venues, which is their hobby.

Grandma watched all this happily and taught her everything she knew without hesitation, even if it was just facing strangers.

More young people love computer games and other sports, but there are still quite a few people who have a strong curiosity about the traditional martial arts culture in China.
