    H.B. UN Praying Mantis book..what form is this?

    Hi all,


    I was fortunate to pick up a book on mantis by H.B. UN(the local library discarded it).Does anyone know what the form was that is being demonstrated?

    Also, I know he also wrote a book on Bak Mei. Has he written books on any other styles?

    His book was one of the earliest books on mantis in English. He was a student of Northern Praying Mantis under Won Hon Fun. The book covers the Bung Bu (Crushing Step) form with applications.

    There are two types of Chinese martial artists. Those who can fight and those who should be teaching dance or yoga!
