Hello clf brothers
In the southern fist online comunity , there is the hung gar forum . is very popular and the topics and discussions have a great quality of knowledge and friendship between differents hung gar branches . one of his topics was a patience step by step analisys of the gung gee fook fu kuen form . starting with the first movement , every member explained the way he learned the movement according his branch and his own interpretation of correct posture , energy and combat application .
With a lot of members in this forum who train and some teach the choy lay fut system of grandmaster lee koon hung , I was thinking maybe we could start a similar topic with siu muy fah kuen , maybe the most commun representative form .
I’ll start based upon the master lee koon hung poster , with the first steps . if you think would be a good topic , please . feel free of join .
I think before start with the fist steps we could anylize the name :
Siu muy fah kuen - small plum flower fist
Siu muy fah is the national flower of china , many styles have a form called muy fah kuen . the petals of the flower represent the 5 nations of china :
Han – original Chinese
Moon – Manchurian
Moan – Mongolian
Woy – muslim
Jong – Tibetan
Someone wants add something about the right and wrong relation between the name of the form with his footwork . also how many forms in the lineage have the name muy fah ?
