Systems of Chinese Boxing We Teach
Under construction, come back soon
First System of Chinese Kung Fu that we teach.
- The First system of Chinese Boxing that we teach is called
Hung Kuen. Hung Kuen is a very well known group of systems that
are basic in nature. However that is why this art is so
important, it creates perfect basics, and with perfect basics,
comes excellent advanced techniques.
- The Second Chinese Boxing System to
mention is far more advanced, " Tai Liu Chuan Fa", "Southern
Eagle and Mantis".
Our First system of Chinese Boxing to mention is
Tai Liu Chuan Fa. Tai Liu was created in the 14th century by the
Suu Family in Southern China. Tai Liu was passed down from
Father to son for the last seven hundred years until 1979, when
the last Suu family Master Died. On his death bed Grand Master
Tallbear was given the title of World leader of all the Tai Liu
Schools. Tai Liu Chuan Fa is an incredible Southern Eagle and
Mantis System. This Chinese Martial Art is known for it's Poison
hand techniques, Master hand Techniques, Survival hand
Techniques, Iron Palm techniques, Quickie hand techniques, fast
hand techniques, and more. It is also known as a medium soft
style. The Chinese Martial arts are known for its six hundred
different systems of Kung Fu. These six hundred systems are cut
into categories. These are soft and hard, long and short, and so
on. Some systems of Kung Fu only train long length techniques
such as Bok Hok Pai. Others train only short techniques such as
Wing Chun. Others train all four categories separately, and
later in advanced stages, together seamlessly.
- The Third Chinese Boxing System we
teach is also a very advanced Chinese Boxing System. This art is
Called Ying Yee, also known as " Mind Of Movement" or
Mind Boxing.
- Another way to spell this is Hsing - i. This art is one thousand
years old, and is one of the three most famous internal systems
of Chinese Martial arts.
Internal stands for soft, External systems stand for hard,
however again these things can become very confusing at first,
as most of these arts, do mix hard with soft, and long with
short, again it all depends on the art, and the master of the
art, as to what is taught. Ying Yee is known for the Five
Element fist, it is also known for the Animal forms. Backing up
a bit, there are the Buddhist schools and the Taoist schools of
martial arts. The Buddhist schools of martial arts are known to
the Chinese as the outside schools, meaning these are all the
styles that were developed from the original system that came
from India with Buddhism. The Taoist schools are known to the
Chinese as the only true Chinese Martial arts systems that were
already in China long before the Buddhist schools came from
India. The Chinese are very proud of their Taoist roots, and
have developed both the Buddhist and Taoist arts to very high
levels. The animal forms in Ying Yee are very different then the
animal forms from the Buddhist schools. Ying Yee has split into
many different groups, even though the backbone of the system is
the same. They do teach slightly different, some teach eight
animals, some teach ten, and yet others teach twelve. Also in a
few of the Ying Yee Systems, they teach Luk Hup Bah Fah, in the
advanced stages. This is only taught to the protégé of the Grand
Master. He or she will only teach this art to the highest level
student or students of the system, not everyone.
