I learned some Water Boxing back in the day. I still base my defense off of it. Cool concepts.

That is because the white silk outfit she is wearing is ever so slightly see thru, and she isn't wearing any undies.

[fiercest tiger]

Is that true, no undies?

Would you say that to Helen's father (http://ezine.kungfumagazine.com/magazine/article.php?article=127)?

Water boxing is a fairly generic term for any one of three or four systems of internal boxing.

1. Liu He Ba Fa or Omei Water Style
2. Taoist Water Boxing
3. Li style Taijiquan
4. Water style Baguazhang

The water principle is common to taoist/internal arts. Their appears to be resources in N. America for 1 and 4. 3 is taught in China, and perhaps Singapore. 2 is rare, even in China. With some effort and good luck, hopefully you will find your answer. If you're not into traveling, try to find the best locally available instruction and explore particulars later on.

LHBF was said to be developed at Hwa Shan!

Thanks Gene for the article, you saved me the time to search for it.

I was fortunate enough to meet with Helen at the orlando kung fu show a few years back. She is an amazing girl and great talent. She and my qigong teacher Yen chu Feng share the same medical qigong views.

We have a large DVD project in the works from Master Helen Liang and her father, Grandmaster Liang Shou-yu. Hopefully it will be ready by the holidays. Keep your eyes out for it.

[fiercest tiger]

Gene, can you tell us more about this project?

Cheers
