Thank you, i figured that is the part you meant(i dont know all the names for moves yet :(
i was not aware that SiJo had learned Bak Mei as well, where did you hear that?(just curious), interesting, always learning something new
thank you

don't worry about sui-fow, he seems to be a local troll who prolly got offended when u said "bak mei" and don't know the entire system. anyways, i don't think that the phoenix eye fist was an addition by dean chin. i think it is jus from the northern shaolin of our system, but that is sure a good inquiry. i'll be sure to ask sifu lee anyway to double check that and get back to u guys soon. oh yeah, and i have heard sifu lee say on a couple of occasions that we have over 150 forms. but i don't know if he's referring to our branch alone or all of them. good question. i'll try and ask him soon.

Thanks for the info Kuntawman. In the many forms are there ones called "Si Mun Pa Gua" or "kum kong kuen" or "Ng Jo Kuen" (sp.?)?

Thanks again.

[sui-fuw]

believe you may.some more suckers.thats why theres so many con artists about.

[thekuntawman]

sifu chin studied eagle claw before jow ga. he did not study bak mei except to exchange with a friend from new york who does bak mei.

i dont think the phoenix fist in small tiger is from bak mei. the sifu who gave us 9 step push (the bak mei form) only gave that one form except for some fighting techniques.

siu fuu you need to shut up nobody paying attention to you.

[thekuntawman]

tofu i dont know about those forms, i know in the last couple years lots of our brothers been going to malaysia and singapore and china to meet with other jow ga, so maybe there's other kinds of jow ga.

but i never heard it in our branch.

if i am wrong, its because i havent been active with jow ga in more than ten years. i still remember the form, and i have a couple jow ga students now, but i dont keep in touch to much with my sihings. nobody i talk to is on these computers.

kuntawman,

That's interesting that you say that sijo did not study BM, but according to Sifu Wong when I asked about it, he study BM learning from his Uncle. :cool:

[thekuntawman]

excuse me then i am wrong. raymond knows better then i do. all i knew about is the eagle claw sifu studied.

What is "Hung Jow"??

[mysteri]

if you are referring to something that you read earlier in this post, then 'hung jow' is not a what, but a who. jow hung (surname being jow) was the uncle of the jow ga system founder, jow lung. jow hung happened to be a hung ga(r) master. i hope this helped.

Would it be too forward to ask what the 28 standard forms of the Dean Chin lineage are? Or at least the first 18?

Just wondering. :)

LD,

On the second page of this post lists quite a few of the forms.

I think "Tiger Cougar" is not listed,

also Siu Hung Kune is the name of the type of fist we use General Hung's fists, same as used in Hung Fut. also refer to thekuntawman' posts on the same page, he posted pretty good info on the forms.
