Iron Body similarities in Bak Fu Pai, Pak Mei, Hung Gar, etc.
I was just wondering what some of the similarities and differences where in all southern arts related to Fukien. I am not sure if Pak Mei has any iron body kuens but I have heard that Pak Mei was nicknamed cottonbelly. I have no idea if this is true or not. Any info on southern kung fu iron body similarities and differences will be appreciated.
fierce tiger and at bottom a thread related question
Thanks for the input, I appreciate your analysis. Being in the Eastern US I have no other way to compare my Pak Mei to any other, so I cannot really comment on the strength issue.
From you experienced perspecitve, is it really possible to judge the power and true skill of a person from watching an instructional video?
Would you say that students of MKF are being bamboozled or ripped off - as he appears to not have Pak Mei power as you see it?...i know you already said if im happy then....i just want a bit of a deeper perspective to your reasoning, if you would be so kind.
i thank you in advance, and await your reply
Let me add to this thread as the above does not really relate to the topic and readers might be getting antsy for topic related content....
it is in the form of a question...
Does Pak Mei have "cotton palm"? is this an iron body tech? what other styles do?
