A Sanjan Question ?

[KwaiChangCaine]

Shaolin Master


This is interesting information. The more I read the more I realize how little I know. Do i understand the following correctly?

- Taizu is a Fukien style (I understood it was the northern longfist parent)?
- You seem to be using Taizuquan and Wuzuquan ( Ngo Cho Kun ) interchangibly. Is this true?

Please clarify and thank you in advance.

[Shaolin Master]

Correct.
The Taizuquan metioned is Fujian Taizuquan. (Not to be confused with Hebei Taizuquan)

Since my grandmaster Miao Yue was a master of Taizuquan and then later added wuzuquan, our style is called Taizuquan but the contents are of both Taizuquan and Wuzuquan. There are quite a few lineages with this mix up.

At this moment there is vcd of Liang, Shouzhong doing a luohan version of sanzhong.

[Shaolin Master]

Luohan practices San Zheng - 3 Straights (As opposed to San Zhan/3 Battles), which are Head, Body and Stance. Since each of these influence other parts (Such as correct stance requires the waist and hip etc.....).

Thanks; I realized the difference after my post.

sanzhan also exists in some styles of karate (I dont recall which ones but there was a simialr thread about this on some other forum) as advanced forms.

I also know a pai lum set that my sifu referred to as "Inner Kung Fu" which used a sanzhan stance but the form was different from the sanzhan set thats being talked about here.

I think it's okinawan.
