    Dragon style

    Anyone do any Southern Dragon here or Dragon Pearl.

    Seems really hard to get any info on this style...

    Or seems quite obscure.

    Sifu Mike Doucet is running a retreat at the end of this month that will cover a Loong Ying/Dragon pole set, and Pak Mei hand controls, among other things.

    Info can be found at this link if you are interested:

    random meaningless reply

    I had a college buddy that practiced Southern Dragon out of NYC. I remember him doing a garden hoe form that I thought was pretty cool. Interesting style in how they use stepping to enter and occupy your space when they fight. The only thing that I didn't care for was that supposedly if a person practiced long enough, they'd get a concave chest because of how they held their upper body.

    Black Tiger,

    I have a training sister in Australia her name is Linda Ung she teaches Lung Ying Southern Dragon I believe in Sydney. What is your inquiry on Lung Ying?

    Mighty B,

    The concave chest part is part of the internal body method. But it should only be applied when executing the techniques and or drills. It is a misconcepting that the Lung Ying/Southern Dragon practitioner always must have a concave chest.

    The retreat is in Canada, north of Toronto. If the link is not working for you, try going to http://www.pakmei.net/ and on that page click on "Temagami Retreat 2012" in the bottom right hand corner. It would be great to see a few of you there this year.

    Southern Fist, Linda is in Sydney. You're correct.

    Blacktiger, there is/was a Dragon Pearl school in Tassie. I believe it is said to be the only one outside of Malaysia.

    Thanks to all for the info

    The Dragon Pearl school is the one in Tassie I have been hanging out with doing some cross training. I have to say Im really enjoying it.

    But yes - its the only one outside Malaysia, but very little info.
