There's a form from it in my Hung Gar syllabus, but my Sifu hasn't learned it yet :(

How can there be a Golden eagle form in your Hung Gar syllabus ???

[Ben Gash]

The same way there's Shaolin, longfist and Mizhong forms in your Faan Tzi Ying Jow Pai syllabus :rolleyes: Someone learned it and thought "Oh, that'll make some cool supplemental material" :D

[Wong Ying Home]

fair enough, but all the styles you mentioned conform to northern body mechanics,

are you saying that you have inc golden eagle as part of your hung gar training, as it surely does not conform the precepts of hung gar.

or are you saying it is a suplementary form outside the hung gar system?

[Ben Gash]

I've not seen it, so it's hard to make a constructive comment. I think it comes under the heading of "something different". There's a ton of non Hung material available in the school (including 2 complete systems (Fa Kuen and Wing Chun) )taught as supplementary material.
