Is it modern eagle claw? 'cause I've noticed a number of Wah Lum students doing modern wushu forms in addition to their Wah Lum.

Hmm,..mantis has taken certain elements from other sytems to be sure, but as far as teaching another system,...No.
Its either Mantis, or its something else.

I was thinking something along these lines, flying goose palm, in WHF, book page 25, the posture, is that a combo of Mantis and Eagle Claw?


Or is that the "FLYING GOOSE PALM"


Maybe I'll start a new thread on this......

As far as just finding eagle-claw techniques goes, there are some in mantis.
Bung-Bo comes immediately to mind; however, in keeping with the original posters thread-topic question, the actual system of eagle-claw is not taught even though there are eagle-claw techniques embedded in the forms.....as well as other systems techniques.
