Our 9th full length trailer is now available to download from the videos section, (or you can just click here). This trailer features footage that we haven't got around to cutting up and posting on the site yet, (although we really should have done so by now). Anyway, with the recent release of the new site it just seemed right for us to compliment it with a new trailer before we post the raw footage.
Unfortunately I'm a bit rusty as its been years since I last made one of these. This trailer has a little bit of taiji, some jianshu and some broadsword so there is something in there for most people I would hope. Also the name of the tune is Beggin' by Madcon (usually I get lots of people asking me what the name of the tune is, so I thought I would save people the trouble).
Its not much, and we don't have an abundance of recent to work with, so if you think you have some quality footage that you would like to see us turn into a W1F trailer, login to the message boards and let us know.
The W1F Wushu Documentary is up on the site! Filmed in the spring of 2007, this documentary not only focuses on British wushu and its competitors and coaches, but also expands further, raising issues on the status of wushu as a sport and martial art worldwide at present day. The documentary is in 5 parts.
The original wushuonefamily.com website was created in 2002 when Ray and Houman returned from their summer trip to Beijing, China. The intention of this website's founders was (and still is) to raise the profile of Chinese Martial Arts, Kungfu/Kung Fu, Taiji/Taichi, Qigong and all related Chinese arts by building an online community, and providing videos (including our famous W1F trailers), downloads, photos, competition results, forums, diaries, blogs, articles, stories and reference.
The Ultimate Jet Li website is no longer available, however if you are a Jet fan it might be good to check out W1F for more information on Jet's art, Wushu.
