Wong Fei Hung's Southern Boxing

This branch of Southern Fists claims lineage to the famous Chinese folk
hero Wong Fai Hung (1847-1924). Son of Wong Kai-Ying, one of Canton's
"Ten Tigers", who himself had studied from Shaolin master and monk Luk
Ah-Choy. Wong's own Southern Shaolin is captured in his Hung Fist, a
varied style with deep horse stances and mixed arm motions some of which
could be considered Southern Long Fist. A prominent feature is the
verbalization of different sounds as an active ingredient of Hei Kung
training. Demonstrated by Chen Nian En, fourth generation disciple of
Wong Fei Hung and the Chief Wushu Coach of Brunei.

VCD#871 Wong Fei Hung Road One
About an hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
1
Quantity

A strong, clear flavor of Hung Gar (Hong Jia).


This relatively short Southern Fist form is an
amalgam of Gung Ji Fuk Fu and Fu Hak with
noticeable Tiger Claw, Bridge Hand, Four Level Horse and Unicorn Step
moves. Sort of a Southern fist highlights boxing.
VCD#872 Wong Fei Hung Road Two
About an hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
1
Quantity

This second road is constructed mostly of the


middle movements associated with the Tiger
Crane Fist. Significant movements include the
side stepping, the Drunken Monk moves, the spinning fists and other major
Southern Boxing motions. Good, strong form with very clear lines.
VCD#873 Wong Fei Hung Road Three
About an hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
1
Quantity

A fast, and dynamic Southern Boxing set. Much


like the Arrow Fist of the Hung style. Very fast
hands, hooking wrists and snake spear hands.
Many body turns and redirected strikes. Good, strong form with clear
actions and quick changes. A solid Southern set.
VCD#874 Wong Fei Hung Health Exercises
About an hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
1
Quantity

Many small but interesting Chi Kung motions.


Animal actions are intermixed with movement
which might resemble Tai Chi to many people.
Some nice exercises especially for martial artists. Most of these Chi Kung
exercises are definitely martial in color and flavor. This is Chen Nian En's
own combination of Sun and Wu Tai Chi, along with Six Harmonies Boxing
and other classic internal exercises.
VCD#875 Wong Fei Hung Wing Chun
About an hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
1
Quantity

This is a very clear presentation of the Siu Nim


Dao first Wing Chun form. As a part of the Wong
Fei Hung Southern Fist the movements are
surprisingly true to the Yip Man standard form. No applications but pretty
good camera work and extensive close ups mostly from a frontal angle.
VCD#876 Wong Fei Hung Bridge Rubbing
Fist
About an hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
1
Quantity

Actually Lung Xing Mo Qiao Quan. That is to say


"Dragon Shaped" Bridge Rubbing Boxing.
Anyone familiar with Southern Fists is aware that there are few styles
which do not emphasize some "bridge crossing" hand techniques. This set
is quick and powerful with actions that resemble, say, White Eyebrow or
Wu Mei Quan. Much trapping and snapping and a lot of centerline
striking. Also a distinctive Dragon arch to the back.
VCD#877 Wong Fei Hung 5 Horse Boxing
About an hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only

Quantity

OUT OF STOCK!
Please place

for this item.
Actually Lung Xing Wu Ma Gui Cao Quan or "Dragon Shaped Five Horses
Return to the Trough Boxing." A long set. By now the horse stance
associated with Hung is completely gone. Actions are fast, drag steps
accompany almost all movements. There is special emphasis on unusual
angles for fists strikes such as overlay back knuckles. Again, very similar at
first blush to White Eyebrow style work.
VCD#878 Wong Fei Hung 38 Health
Methods
About an hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
1
Quantity

A series of very good self massage actions broken


down into three main groups. Many of these are
classic Temple exercises for health maintenance. NOTE: As of this writing
this particular VCD seems to have been filmed with CANTONESE
(GuangZhou Hua) narration only.
VCD#879 Wong Fei Hung Buddha Fist
About an hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
1
Quantity

Fut Jia LuoHan Quan. Buddha Family Disciple


Boxing. Being a Southern style there's more
chance people recognize the Cantonese idiom of
"Fut Gar LoHan" Boxing. Within the Wong Fei Hung branch this is the
most distinctively Long Arm of all the sets. It almost resembles PiGua with
special weight put on Big Opening and Big Closing. A nice looking set and a
workout. Very different from some of the more Arrow Punch sets of the
system.
VCD#880 Wong Fei Hung Butterfly Knives
About an hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
1
Quantity

A very classic looking butterfly knife set. One of


it's most prominent features is a little greater than
usual emphasis on "hidden" or "sleeve" holding
of the knives - that is to say, reverse gripped. Not a short set. Many
sweeping actions, unicorn steps and Long Arm attacks.
