looks like Lama ("it had the whole "kahp", "pao", "chyuhn", "gwa" and "pak yihk po" thing), but it could be Hahp Ga or White Crane just as well - obviously it would depend on the specific lineage; it seemed like it had what looked like the "traditional" Lama opening / closing, albeit a somewhat different from the exact ones with which I am personally familiar;

and those red shoes are da bomb! when is Gene going to start stocking those?!?

Its looks like lama's mui fa pattern and the begining of white crane's 6 power.

The solo form looks like parts of choy li fut.

What city is this in?

The first form is Hop Gaah Mui Fa, not sure onthe solo form either. The second form is the beginning of Hop Gaah Tiet Lin.

The palms over right shoulder salute looks like Cheuk Tse's. The set at 1:20 is Dai Johng Muih Fa. Looks as if a couple of moves have been changed from the way it was taught a generation ago. The CLF opening hands also look like the stuff we did but the content after the opening is anybody's guess. At around 3:45 it shows the first road of White Crane's Tit Lihn Kyuhn but the final move has been changed to a chyun cheui from Luhk Lehk Kyuhn.

Was gonna say Cheuk Tse but he beat me to it :mad: :p

Definitely lama or Hop Ga, different "feel" than the white crane lines

Though if it is Cheuk, you are looking at another synthesis of traditions, much like CTS's

Sifu cheuk is a Hung Mun sifu so i believe that is his school.....the video is of the hawaii branch CFM

the video states the gung fu came from Sifu Gerry Lam.....

Looks like Honolulu. Cheuk also had classes on Kauai and the "Big Island," (also Hong Kong and Taiwan). Thanks for posting this, hskwarrior. I didn't know that anyone outide of the Wo Li Wo or Steve Nacua's group in N.Y. still trains with his material.
