Brief Introduction of The Martial Art Sets of The Pak Mei Clan



Great Grand Master Cheung Lai Chuen followed a total of four martial art masters to learn martial arts and lastly followed Buddish Monk Chuk Fai Wan to learn the Pak Mei Martial Arts.

He was still grateful to the first three masters of different styles and clans for teaching him. For the purpose of memorializing them Great Grand Master chose some of their best martial arts passed on to him as his teaching materials, he reserved the actions in their martial art sets but used the fundamental principles of the Pak Mei Clan to modify the usage of the waist and stands and the production of power theory. Thus, amongst the fist and kick sets of the Pak Mei Clan, there are the Pak Mei Originals, ˇ§Chik Bo Biu Tsz Kuenˇ¨, Gau Bo Tsui Kuenˇ¨, ˇ§Day Sark Kuenˇ¨, ˇ§Hung Sau Yap Pak Yan Kuenˇ¨, Sup Bart Mor Kiu Kuenˇ¨, ˇ§Chi Lim Kuenˇ¨ and ˇ§Mount Foo Chui Lum Kuenˇ¨ Passed on by Monk Chuk fat Wan, there are also the ˇ§Sap Gee Kau Da Kuenˇ¨ passed on by Master Shek, the ˇ§Sam Mun Tsuiˇ¨ passed on by master Lee Yee, the ˇ§Ying Jow Nim Kiu Kuenˇ¨ passed on by Master Lam Ah Hop, and the ˇ§ Say Mun Bart Gwer Kuenˇ¨ and ˇ§Tit Tiel Kuenˇ¨ created by Great Grand Master Cheung Lai Chuen by mixing the vitalities of the different martial art clans which he had learned and the latter set is for practice of combat by two persons. The Great Grand Master applied the same principle to the weapon sets, therefore there are the Pak Mei originals, ˇ§Tai Chun Kwanˇ¨, ˇ§LauYip Doeˇ¨, ˇ§Wui Wan Cern Gwaiˇ¨, ˇ§Dui Chart Kwanˇ¨, ˇ§ Ching Loan Kimˇ¨, ˇ§Fate Fung Cern Doeˇ¨, ˇ§Ching Loan Yim Yuet Doe, ˇ§Fong Tin Gigˇ¨ and ˇ§Yuen Beanˇ¨, there are also the ˇ§Chung Lan Kwanˇ¨ of Lee Kar, the ˇ§Sam Cha Dai Paˇ¨ of For Day and the ˇ§Tin Sin Po Dunˇ¨ passed on by Master Shek. Therefore along the teaching materials of the Pak Mei Clan, there are nine fist and kick sets, two fist and kick sets for the practice by two persons, eleven weapon sets, one weapon set for the practice by two persons, one fist and kick against knife set for the practice by two persons. The history of the Pak Mei Clan, the theory of the Pak Mei Martial Arts and the usage thereof are also included in the teaching materials of the Pak Mei Clan. The above-mentioned twenty-four sets are all and the only martial art sets in the Pak Mei Clan, they were passed on by Great Grand Master Cheung Lai Chuen to Grand Master Cheung Ping Lam personally. Apart from the said twenty-four sets there are no other martial art sets in the Pak Mei Clan. The above mentioned sixteen original Pak Mei Martial Art Sets were all and the only martial art sets passed on by Monk Chuk Fai Wan to great Grand Master Cheung Lai Chuen. Some people said that are some more original fist and kick Pak Mei Martial Art sets apart from the said sixteen sets is a misunderstanding and mistake.
