Ban Qiu Ban Bai He Quan - Can anybody tell me something about this style? It is from Taiwan and there should be a form called Neixi (inside knee).

Awesome, thank you!

So it is from Fuan County in Ningde. This looks a lot like Karate's Naihanchi/Tekki.

No Problem. Always happy to help if I can. I cannot talk about a possible Naihanchi / Crane connection though. My White Crane is different.

I wonder where the hill half comes from. Might it be Jishan Quan which developed into Fujian (Tiger Respect) HuZun Quan?

If the assumption of my last post was correct, then Half Hill Half Crane would be an early stage of Half Tiger Half Crane. Sounds familiar. That would be cool.
