Transmitting Health Philosophies Through the Traditionalist Chinese Martial Arts in the UK
Societies 2014, 4, 712–736; doi:10.3390/soc4040712 OPEN ACCESS societies ISSN 2075-4698 www.mdpi.com/journal/societies Article Transmitting Health Philosophies through the Traditionalist Chinese Martial Arts in the UK George Jennings Universidad YMCA/Lago Alberto 337, Col. Anáhuac, Delegación Miguel Hidalgo, 11320 Mexico City, Mexico; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +52-1-55-4821-2028 External Editor: Dale C. Spencer Received: 27 July 2014; in revised form: 29 October 2014 / Accepted: 27 November 2014/ Published: 10 December 2014 Abstract: The dynamic relationships between “martial arts”, society and health remain unclear, particularly due to research that typically views health in a purely biomedical and compartmentalized way. Martial arts and combat sports (MACS) offer a diversity of disciplines with their own intended training outcomes and techne. The traditionalist Chinese martial arts (TCMAs), such as Taijiquan (Tai Chi Chuan) and Wing Chun Kung Fu, stress health promotion/preservation, personal development and lifelong practice. Adopting a structurationist framework, this article explores the connections between three distinct philosophies of health and TCMAs, institutions spreading such discourse, and the personal narratives of transformation and self-cultivation through these embodied art forms. Taking a perspective starting from the practitioners themselves, I explore the interplay between discourse and narrative as applied in everyday British society. Following detailed qualitative analysis, “Western scientific”, “contemporary Daoist” and “New Age” health philosophies are identified as explored via three detailed, reflexive cases of long-term practitioner-instructors, their schools and documents that connect them to international exponents across time. This article thus contributes to sociological knowledge on MACS and health, while considering the connections between health philosophies, discourse and narrative.

Introduction 1
NOTES Introduction 1. One immediately encounters a “term problem” in discussing a phenomenology of race. Terms such as “Chinese” and “white” suddenly become woefully inadequate (as if they were not so already). I try to address this problem in a straightfor- ward way: when I wish to call attention to the term problem within the context of my arguments, I place quotation marks around terms like “Chinese,” “Euro-American,” “foreigner,” “white,” et cetera. When I momentarily ask that the reader accept these categories, for example, in my discussion of Chinese history and Chinese American immigration, I refrain from using quotation marks. 2. Gongfu, commonly written in English as “kung fu,” also refers to “skill,” “work,” or “time.” The “kung fu” that has become part of American vernacular functions in English as a kind of catch-all term for Chinese martial arts, but it is more often used this way in Chinese, for example, when the conversation revolves around foreign practice of martial arts or when the term wushu is avoided. Wushu is the term for “martial arts” in Mandarin Chinese, but it has acquired a complicated associa- tion with performance-oriented martial arts that have little or nothing to do with combat training. Practitioners will usually refer to a particular art by its style name or family association. 3. The style is properly referred to as “Wu style taijiquan” (Wu shi taijiquan). When I conflate “Wu” and “Ma” family names, my purpose is to specify the lineage that has developed through the married couple of Ma Yueliang and Wu Yinghua.

PAWMA News Uniting and Empowering a Diverse Community of Women and Girls in the Martial Arts
PAWMA News Uniting and empowering a diverse community of women and girls in the martial arts. Vol. 37 No. 1 Summer 2014 In Appreciation for Those Serving You A Letter from our President, Sonya Richardson The Pacific Association of Women Martial Artists has been holding training camps for thirty-seven years. Behind the curtain, thirty-seven groups of organizers have brainstormed, created, re-shaped and turned the gears that move women and girls in their exploration and deepening of their relationship with the martial arts. A bow of gratitude to all who served on the PAWMA Board before us from conception to this day. If you’ve ever been on a non-profit board, you understand those first few months of feeling like you’re jogging underwater. Simply stated, it takes a minute to plant one’s feet firmly, let alone run boldly on the road. Last year’s Board, small but mighty, was amazing. They not only left us breadcrumbs to find the path, but a host of thoroughly organized “how to’s” and a healthy fiscal purse to advance us forward. Please take a moment to literally read each Photo by Catrina Marchetti. name aloud in full appreciation: Roseanne Boudreau. Helen Yee. Patty O’Linger. Nikia Fenlin. Justine Simkins (continuing board member) and Michelle McVadon (Elder Counsel). Inspired to serve, superhero capes in place, this year’s Board grew in number. We are Restita DeJesus (secretary), Marieta Delacruz, Margot Ernst (treasurer), Erin Huey, Judith Pile, Justine Simpkins, Nikki Smith (vice president), and myself, Sonya Richardson (president). We are honored Michelle McVadon will stay on as our Elder Counsel, a non-voting voice offering a broad historical perspective when needed.

A Brief Analysis of Subtitle Translation Based on the Intercultural Perspective—A Case Study of Kung Fu Panda
US-China Foreign Language, April 2019, Vol. 17, No. 4, 177-182 doi:10.17265/1539-8080/2019.04.005 D DAVID PUBLISHING A Brief Analysis of Subtitle Translation Based on the Intercultural Perspective—A Case Study of Kung Fu Panda LIU Xin, XIONG Shuhui University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, Shanghai, China Films and television programs are playing an irreplaceable role in serving as the carrier of culture. With the rising of China’s national strength, language and culture have changed in some ways in the process of external exchange, which in turn gives an impetus to the international popularity of Chinese culture. In the case of movie Kung Fu Panda, the thesis mainly focuses on the movie subtitling with related to the Chinese characteristics as well as the English translations that deal with the Chinese culture. Through the comparative analysis of the three versions, this paper compares the subtitle translation between Chinese and English from a cross-cultural perspective, so as to further demonstrate the influence of Chinese culture on English films. Keywords: intercultural communication, Kung Fu Panda, subtitle translation Introduction In the recent years, the popularity of Chinese culture and the release of so many foreign films with plenty of Chinese elements have rendered Chinese culture more and more important. In this thesis, I will try to analyze and compare three different translated versions of subtitles of the movie Kung Fu Panda with the purpose of discussing different methods of translating China English and demonstrating the influence of Chinese culture on the film subtitle. Chinese Elements in Hollywood Movies Chinese characters began to appear in American films in the end of 19th century.

SHAOLIN MONKS MAY HOLD the KEY to PREVENTING HEALTH RISK at Submittedwork By: Yan Lei Productions Tuesday, 20 May 2008
SHAOLIN MONKS MAY HOLD THE KEY TO PREVENTING HEALTH RISK AT SubmittedWORK by: Yan Lei Productions Tuesday, 20 May 2008 An ancient technique, which was originally devised to help improve the health of Shaolin monks when they were sitting in lengthy meditation sessions, may hold the key to preventing stress and health problems at work. At the Department of Medical Science, Uppsala University, Sweden. Qi Gong was shown to reduce blood pressure, noradrenaline excretion in urine, and influence the heart rate and temperature, indicating reduced activity of the sympathetic nervous system. Qigong also reduced low-back symptoms. (full details of the study below) Shifu Yan Lei, who is a 34th generation fighting disciple from the Shaolin Temple in China, and is now based in the UK, says: “ Qi Gong was originally taught by the founder of Zen Buddhism; Bodhidharma. Seeing that his monks were tired from extensive meditation, he composed a set of dynamic exercises to give them energy and strengthen their body.” Qi Gong is a moving meditation, which works on the same scientific principle as acupuncture. It is practiced by millions of people in China and is becoming increasingly popular in the West as people seek longevity, stress reduction and improved health through mind-body practices like qigong. Some people call it a Chinese yoga but unlike yoga, it needs no equipment and very little space; some of the movements can even be done from an office chair. ‘I advise my students to stop working every few hours and do a little Qi Gong,” says Shifu Yan Lei.
