Our particular style of Longfist is called 'Extended Arm Boxing' (Tong bei Chuan) and is approximately 2,500 years old. Its origins lie in the mountainous areas of north China. As a Hakka style, it contains major elements of both Ying Jow (Eagle Claw), and Tong Long (Praying Mantis). As a style, it pre-dates the arrival of Buddhism in China by nearly a thousand years. It has since however, been practiced in Buddhist monasteries and has become associated with Northern Shaolin Gungfu. It advocates long range kicking and punching, leading to a mastery of medium and short-range fighting skills. It is renowned for its fluid footwork and power-hitting. External qicong (tough body conditioning) hardens muscle and bone, as well as develops a strong mind. Sparring in this style has no padding.
