Emei Crane

[Shaolin Wookie]

Does anyone know a good resource for Omei Crane? Vids? Books?

Many sources (including KFM Online articles) cite Emei Shan as a center for crane studies, and my three brown belt crane forms in Shaolin Do supposedly come from the Omei crane......but I can't find any other tangible sources for Emei crane outside of our information. All those outside sources don't point to anything tangible. I can't seem to find much about Emei Crane at all....

So, for all you kungfu scholars, please point the way.

Maybe those brown belt forms didn't come from Omei Mountain. Have you considered that?

From watching Shaolin Do clips online, I don't think you'l find any of them outside of your organization. Not hating, just saying that I think all your forms are unique to your school and your school alone.

Of course it's crossed my mind, dude, that's why I'm asking for outside sources. BTW, there are many sites and schools and books (non-Shaolin-Do) that cite Emei Shan as a center for crane studies, but I find it strange I never find any actual Emei Crane forms or info anywhere. Just looking to find what these other schools and books are talking about.

The only crane forms you'll probably find are NOT from Omei mountain. What does that tell you?

You'll find;

Tibetan White Crane
Fukien White Crane
Yong Chun White Crane

and a few more.

Are you looking for expert advice to validate the forms that you have learned at Shaolin-Do?

Have you seen ANY forms of Shaolin Do OUTSIDE of the organization? Again..not saying that SD is good or bad. I do think however, that their material has all been developed from within the org.

OMG......plants head into hands........

Emei Crane, yes or no. No, not trying to validate.....LOL.......

If you have thoughts on SD, you know where to go. I'm just looking for more info.....

Oh, the inanity of it all....

You can take your head out of your hands now.

Uh, no. No Omei Crane. Do you know why?
Because there is none?? You learned forms from a style that does not exist?

Go ahead and put your head back in.
