Tips on writing action scenes. Some of the fight scenes in wuxia stories can be... fantastic. Less internal energy and more sheer physical skills to make them more believable, maybe?

"YouTube university" is a wonderful idea. Here, for instance, are fight scenes from the Donnie Yen's Ip Man movies (they're kungfu rather than wuxia movies, but the point stands).

Ip Man 2:
