“Night Tiger Emerges from the Forest” – A Rare Set of “Old Hung Kyun”
http://naamkyun.com/2012/05/night-ti...old-hung-kyun/
The person in the clip is my Sigung; Leung Kam Kwong. This set was brought to hongkong by my dai-sigung Wong Lei who came from Guangdung..before learning the Lam Sai Wing hung kuen he learned this old style of hung kuen... theres a second set with almost the same patterns but different techniques called fierce tiger emerges from the forrest..however I saw my sigung playing both sets as one..
Great-grandmaster Wong Lei wouldnt teach this set to anyone who trained less than 7 years under him....by now this changed.
Wasn't Wong Lei also the sifu of Sifu John Leung?
It is important to understand that every teacher leaves His mark on the Hung Kune that He passes on.
This is a sign of our strength, not a weakness.
Take pride in our variety.

Praise be my Lord my Rock,
He trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle !
I went to visit Sifu Leung's school last year. He wouldn't let me watch after I told him I already did Kung Fu lol. But hey his store downstairs was cool I guess.
Does that mean that Master Leong technically teaches "old" or "village" Hung within his curriculum? Is that the emphasis?
First of all, I frankly have not watched this set before. It has good techniques, and it was well demonstrated. There are considerable amount of grabbling, punches, joint lock, push, etc. in the set. And most of the techniques are short bridge. That tells it is old Hung Kuen. Salute to sifu Leung Kam Kwong. He has good skill IMHO, especially for a person of his age ( 60+ years old ).
