Thread: Bawang Quan in Cailifo/Choy Lee Fut?

  1. #1

    Bawang Quan in Cailifo/Choy Lee Fut?

    I have some Choy Lee Fut training from Northern Shaolin GM Chan Kwok Wai's disciple, the late Sifu Marcello Teixeira, here in Rio. That hapenned as far back as 1990, and only for a few months.

    Eventually I have started learning a very long form called "Bawan Quan" ( 霸王拳 - do not know the Cantonese pronounciation, sorry!), which is the first one taught within GM Chan Kwok Wai's school.

    I have never heard of, nor seen, such a form, except for the quotation in http://www.ccak.org/en/articles/cailifo-pai, so I ask the brothers here whether this form is anyhow known outside of the lineage of GM Chan, who learned Hung Sing from Yan You Chin and Buk Sing from Ying Sheung Mo (see chart on the bottom of http://www.sinobrasileira.org/index....subid=11&ln=pt ).

    Thanks a lot, in advance, for your attention,

    Marcelo

    I've never heard of this form as its not in Fut San Hung Sing Kwoons material. perhaps its a chan fam form or even Chan Kwok Wai created it.

    all i've found so far is shaw brother movies and cartoons.....

    So then Bawang apparently means despot king, not purple newborn calf! What cruel deception on the part of Shifu Bawang!
    I was on the metro earlier, deep in meditation, when a ruffian came over and started causing trouble. He started pushing me with his bag, steadily increasing the force until it became very annoying. When I turned to him, before I could ask him to stop, he immediately started hurling abuse like a scoundrel. I performed a basic chin na - carotid artery strike combination and sent him to sleep. The rest of my journey was very peaceful, and passersby hailed me as a hero - Warrior Man

    Thank you, Sifu Frank, for the informantion regarding the Futsan Hung Sing.
    I have asked Sifu Wong Yen Zem from Xing Hui, and he told me he has never heard about that form either.
    So, the form (a) was created by Chan Kwok Wai; or (b) was created by one of Chan Kwok Wai's teachers (Yan You Chin and Ying Sheung Mo) and subsequently taught to CKW.
    I have tried to communicate with Master CKW but his email is not working. I'll let you know if I happen to find out something.

    Ok, I have just heard from the representative of CKW in a Southern state of my Country that Chan Kwok Wai has learnt that form from Zhen Yaochao (Yan You Chin), who's in this picture (left) with his father Zhen Yanchu (right): http://www.shaolindonorte.com.br/ima...yanchu_clf.jpg
    Any info on those gentlemen?

    My kung fu brother who was a student of Chan Kwok Wai many years ago mentioned that form before and said he was told it was from buk sing. If i am not mistaken it has the double single poon kiu block followed by a sow choy, which can be seen in buk sing sets. Not sure if it is unique to buk sing or not though.

    Peace

    Funny to see the names of the forms written in Mandarin:

    Shizi Kouda Quan= Saap Ji Kau Da Kyuhn

    Thank you, CLF Nole, for the information above.
    Now I'm truly confused (not your intention, I know), for the teacher in the South of Brazil told me it was a Hung Sing form that CKW learned from Yan You Chin.
    Anyway, I used to think there were only three forms in Buk Sing CLF.
    Maybe I'll film a part of the form and send it to youtube next weekend.

    For the gung fu that was passed down by Jeung Yim buk sing has our Sup Ji, Ping Kuen and Kau da.

    the Mui Fah Form is also not from Jeung Yim.
