Hi Hendrick,
I hope this uploads okay. Here is a picture from Ruan Dongs book of Fujian Crane. 'Paizhi', (fingers in a row), or 'flat palm' is a basic hand form in Calling Crane.
It's not exactly identical (little finger) , but having visited the statue a few times in Yongchung I think it possible that the sculptor be allowed some artistic license in order to make a strong cast....
Best wishes.

Maybe, you could show me when we get the opportunity to meet in the near future.

My knowledge of Emei is superficial but I do know a thing or 2 about White Crane.

Hi Eric,

You can see the Emei 12 Zhuang from Wu Xinliang's "Emei Martial Arts" set of VCDs.

Volume 3 of the VCD series is Emei Twelve Stakes (Standing Methods) (Emei Shi Er Zhuang, the famous set of standing exercises, combining movements with specific breathing).

When I first saw Hendrik's Siu Lien Tao set, it looked much like older Futshan WCK...when he shared the Kuen Kuit with me, I could see it was of quality teachings.

When I researched old books on Emei Shi Er Zhuang, I saw a lot of the similarities between the Yik Kam Siu Lien Tao.

Of course, WCK has much similarities with Fujian Bai He. A look at the White Crane 5 element hands, and one can see immediate correspondences. You are too humble of your White Crane knowledge! I really like your Ba Bu Lian - would love to learn that from you!

Best regards,

I saw he put up the rare book on Emei 12 Zhuang. It is a legacy for practitioners to study and further investigate the origins of Wing Chun Kuen. Thank you Eric!


Roobert,

Yup. I agree with you.

Best Regards
