SPG:

Could you please identify the style of bagua being played by the Hong Kong master?

Some of the hand movements resemble some of the bagua that Liu Yun Qiao taught my teacher.

Thanks.

The old Leung Ting footage was cool. Seemed he liked to throw guys around when he was younger.

The movements in Ba Gua Quan shown are similar in many styles.

Based on the hand form, it looks like Gou Lian Zhang or hooking knife palm. My cantonese is limited.

So it could be Shi style. But I heard that Shi style not necessarily using Gou Lian Zhang.

Cheng style uses dragon claw palm.

Yin style uses cow tongue palm, (Niu She Zhang) the fingers are close together and the thumb closed in, too.

Sorry I do not have direct info on the style shown.

The video clips are posted in Chinese KF forum in HK.

I like them very much so I reposted them here.

:D

Thank you, SPJ:

Not always in the training---some of the auxillary training requires an open hand and its later that we add the Niu She Zhang---also some of the movements remind me of some of the aspects of post training.

I've read one of your books and enjoyed it--hope to find some more.

Those were pretty cool. I have a few questions ......I'm not familiar with the Chinese names of some styles but is Pi Gua monkey style? Tang Lang = S Mantis? And who was the Wing Chun Sifu, is it me or was he throwing people around like rag dolls? Where could I find more about him? Thanks a lot

Sorry guys. My cantonese is limited.

Pi Gua or Pek Kwa is southern monkey style.

These video clips were from Hong Kong TV documentary of local teachers.

southern Wu Tai Chi, southern mantis etc.

the teacher in Wing Chun is the famed Leung Ting.

:D

I've seen so many versions of different looking styles that share the Pi gua / Pek kwar name, I'm not sure what it is anymore.

Isn't Pek Kwar axe fist (or something) and hasn't monkey sort of evolved from it or something? I looked into it sometime.

People get hung up on the name. But does have ape elements in it.

I'll try to translate the pek kwar video. My chinese is pretty limited so...
Master Chow talks abit about the history of pek kwar.
There are short axe fist and long axe fist. In long axe fist, the arm should be more extended, but it shouldn't commit so if a technique fails you would be able to flow into another attack. Pek Kwar is usually more aggressive and uses more offense. Attacks are usually to the head, neck, or upper area.

anyway thats all i got from it.
cheers

Sifu Chow Keurng is a top student of Sifu Chan Sau Chung. I had the opportunity to train with him and his kung fu is very, very good and I would highly recommend training with him if one ever has the chance. He talks about both hou kuen (tai sing/monkey fist) coming from Kou Sze and Pek Kwar coming from siu lum.

They are not southern monkey it is tai sing pek kwar mun and is northern for those who don't already know.

Someone asked earlier about the CLF sifu, his name is Choy Kwong Yuen.
