according to my brother (who takes kung fu and studies some in beijing), teachers beat their students with sticks like that all the time to teach them how to take a hit. it's to make them less sensitive to being hit with stucks and punches... but, it's also a way to get them to work harder and not mess up.

yeah, it's jacked up, but the students and parents of the students accept it.

and i don't think that guy's japanese.

Well we block PVC pipes against or bare forearms and shins to toughen them up in shuri ryu, but our senseis don't draw blood...at least not on purpose. The line has to be drawn somewhere. :)

Those people appear to be pretty advanced students, and besides, they are free to leave at any time. Our instructors never used sticks, but they hit us all the time in sparring, and even sometimes just to see if we were paying attention. It's for awareness and conditioning - and as far as conditioning goes that's not even that bad.

Did you? Please reveal all if you did.

I've heard stories - ripping bark off trees with bare hands until they are raw, etc.

No pain, no gain. :)

I can say with 100% certainty that the guy is Japanese and its probably not Kung Fu...

no, i didn't...

read the 2nd post i made...

my brother said the same thing you just did, though... you're free to leave if you don't like the way the master's teaching.

i'm sure there are some shaolin temples where you do rip bark off trees or something, but that wasn't something my brother saw. my brother got hit in the legs and arms with sticks... they'd be broken over his arms and shoulders. he was hit because his arm wasn't straight enough, his legs weren't far apart enough, his arms weren't as tightly held enough (like bruce lee where if you hit his arm, it wouldn't move anywhere), or just to make sure he didn't break form or lose concentration whenever he was doing his form.
