Wong Fei Hung Buddha Fist

Fut Jia LuoHan Quan. Buddha Family Disciple Boxing. Being a Southern style there's more chance people recognize the Cantonese idiom of "Fut Gar LoHan" Boxing. Within the Wong Fei Hung branch this is the most distinctively Long Arm of all the sets. It almost resembles PiGua with special weight put on Big Opening and Big Closing. A nice looking set and a workout. Very different from some of the more Arrow Punch sets of the system. This branch of Southern Fists glaims linneage to the famous Chinese folk hero Wong Fai Hung (1847-1924). Son of Wong Kai-Ying, one of Canton's "Ten Tigers", who himself had studied from Shaolin master and monk Luk Ah-Choy. Wong's own Southern Shaolin is captured in his Hung Fist, a varied style with deep horse stances and mixed arm motions some of which could be considered Sourthern Long Fist. A prominent feature is the verbalization of different sounds as an active ingredient of Hei Kung training. Demonstrated by Chen Nian En, fourth generation disc
