A few years back I had trained for a month at Shaolin EPO Wushu College in Dengfeng, China.

Since the training period was so short, we had learned only a couple of different forms.

One of the forms was the Five Step Boxing form.

Very close (but not exact) to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Me_KqHJQoIw

And also this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSC0cHpXYYE

I haven't practiced either form in a long time so I need a video to jog my memory.

The other form that I believe I was taught was called something along the lines of Big Fist, or Big Red Fist or Little Red Fist if I'm not mistaken.

However I can't find a video of it as I'm not sure I have the correct name.

I was wondering if someone might know what it could have been and be able to suggest a name, or even share a video of some of the basic Shaolin wushu forms (or stretches or exercises) which we may have been taught so that I might be able to get back into practicing.

I found it.

However the video is poor. Does anyone know the name of this form or know of a video of higher quality?

These are the coaches who taught us: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDI9nLR4g9s

The one in the video is Datongbiquan.

The other two you're looking for are Xiaohongquan and Dahongquan.
