    Thank you! It's not missing the movements, maybe just from different versions. I have saw many mantis books and all the masters do it differently too. I have done many and chose the one I like more which flows the best for me.

    This is seven star mantis. Just in case you thought it is CCK..

    Yes, I misspoke. I just meant it was missing a few movements as I learned it.
    I have also seen MANY versions. Yours does look very smooth.
    Yes, I recognized it as Seven Star, probably stemming from Hong Kong. The version I learned was the Northern Praying Mantis (Wong Hon Fan) version.

    Won Hon Fan is very good too as I see his mantis books are nicely postured. The next generation from him, Yuen Man Kai is still alive in hongkong but I don't like his style when I see him perform because it's way too flowery..

    I saw your website just now, interesting and cool stuff! Your videos are nice too!
