Very structured northern chinese style. It's a mixture of things... some long fist, some shorter type hand strikes, a number of different types of kicks (not just the typical roundhouse, side kick, etc.), and unusual hand strikes. It has a lot of low stances that are difficult when first learned. The forms are very cardio intensive!!!

It's a hybrid system and has elements of Northern and Southern Kung Fu. It has it's share of controversy but it's a good workout, traditional CMA moves geared more towards performance and intense physical ability. If you're looking to fight MMA then there are better choiced.
BTW, it's my primary style.
yaosing I wouldn't have guessed that from your avatar, I thought wah lum doesn't do spear. I don't see wah lum praying mantis anywhere in Houston but maybe I don't know where i'm looking.
Hua Lin does not do spear, that is hilarious. goju, go check the school out, Shifu Eric Bernsdore is a good man and a good kung fu teacher.
I am still a student practicing - Wang Jie Long

doesn't do spear. lol.
zhugeliang - go to American Martial Arts Academy on Westheimer. Sifu Wallace Cupp is there. He is old school wah lum from Boston. If anyone does wah lum in houston its him.
If you want to see wah lum there are a few people in texas.
The only official school i know is in clute about an hour south of houston.
There's Jade Mountain Martial arts in Katy texas, think that's where Masher Dong's from.
The kung fu exchange folks do some wah lum sets (Austin, Killeen, Plano, Tyler).
There was one other guy floating around, but forgot his name.
-Jack Dempsey ch1 pg1 Championship FightingWhat would happen if a year-old baby fell from a fourth-floor window onto the head of a burly truck driver, standing on the sidewalk?
It's practically certain that the truckman would be knocked unconscious. He might die of brain concussion or a broken neck.
Even an innocent little baby can become a dangerous missile WHEN ITS BODY-WEIGHT IS SET INTO FAST MOTION.
