Yes, I am a newbie!

I most humbly and sincerely apologize if I have offended you or anyone else with my post to the new thread.

My mistake, am I wrong in assuming that lion dancing and traditional chinese martial arts are unrelated?

Your correction is appreciated.

secretgecko,


You just have to wait and see, if, anyone is interested in your thread. It can go a few days with no reply, and then out of nowhere you could get all kinds of ppl discussing it. Our it maybe a topic noone feels compelled to speak on.

Just trying to help from my experience with this and other forums.

okay, lets try this again.

this is the lin wan kau da kuen performed by hung fut sifu Calvin Jones Jr.

This clip shows a very abridged version of the first handset form in the Hung Fut style (accurately named above) as taught by Grandmaster Tai Yim in Maryland. The full form features all 10 of the Hung Fut animals, used in various combinations at long and short ranges.

I can't read Chinese, so I don't know exactly what is written there. But I do know from other HF boards that there are several versions of HF history and content. It is likely that this version is different from that espoused by the Tai Yim branch, and there are probably a few other versions extant on various websites.

The word according to Grandmaster Tai Yim is at:

These are transcriptions (apparently done by my si-hing Doug Cohen) of 2 "old" articles from Inside Kung Fu. The first is the first extensive basic informational piece about HF ever done in an all-English, US-based publication. The second is the only piece in English that I've seen about the 4 Cripples Form. Both feature Grandmaster Tai Yim.

Here is a clip taken in HK in the Kung Fu Corner couple of years back. It is Students of Sifu Hung Man Lok doing the lion dance and also some kung fu. The form performed is a WuSu spear form. Funny I was there that day and actually i have a cameo on it. lol . Continued success to Sifu Hung Man Lok, his students and all HFP.
