I am looking for the input of all artists in the drunken arts. Can anyone give a novice in the field any advice?

i know our style has a drunken mantis form, and i know most systems do have a drunken form, but there is no drunken system, there is a good book by lung ting on the drunken eight immortals, that goes pretty deep into the subject, history of the form, and applications, also try a search on any engine you should get lots of hits....hope this helps.

Some choy li fut lineages contain an eight drunken immortals form, I know Lee Koon Hung's lineage does. It is a very advanced, internal form. Lee Koon Hung's school in Florida even sells a video on this form. I do not know the website for the school offhand, but I always see an ad for that school's videos in Qiqong wushu kung fu magazine. I hope this helps. Peace.
Hello,
Drunken Sets are fairly prominent include
Eight Drunken Immortals, various northern & southern Styles teach a set with this title.
Drunken Arhat from Mantis.
Drunken Monkey, There are a few styles that teach a drunken Monkey set and it is one of the 5 monkey types of Tai Shing Pek Kwar.
The Lok Hop Tsui Pak Hsien of Dr. John Ng is absolutley and without a doubt the best drunken boxing I have seen.
I have studied a little of it and hope to train deeper in the style soon.
Two of the articles that Shane speaks of above are;
Decive Disrupt Destroy the Strategy of Drunken Boxing. by Master Tim Pickens Karate/KungFu Illustrated / December 1992
Real Drunken Boxing, What You Won't See in Todays Competition!
by Master Tim Pickens Inside Kung-Fu / May 1991
Both of these articles feature Photos of Tim Pickens & Dr. Ng at The Twin Dragons School in Albany, KY (The memories )
Anyway, there are several others but I do not have them at hand.
Gene, do you guys have any Drunken info in your back issues? I think I remember a Drunken Fist article but I'm not sure.
