Hi everyone, Here is another style kung fu that might be interesting for all you San Chiem fans: Ngo Muay Koon or Wu Mei (Mandarin) quan. Wu Mei is the alleged teacher of Yim Wing Chun – the founder of Wing Chun Kung Fu. Wu Mei is also documented as one of the 5 escapees from Southern Shaolin during the Manchurian’s army attack. There is also a recorded Wu Mei in the White Crane family tree. A fifth generation student of Fang Chi Niang’s White Crane. There is hardly any way to determine which is which now. But this we do know:- Ngo Muay koon is another San Chiem centered kung fu – iron shirt San Chiem. Much of what they do could be mistaken for Eng Choon peho or even Ngo Chor. The late Tan Siew Koon (the old gentleman in the photos) was very active in the 70s and 80s in Singapore. He club was known as Leng Sai or Dragon Lion Kok Shu Kwan. Very close to my late Sifu. You've seen how they tucked their chin and bite their teeth. That is one way of strengthening neck muscles and jaw muscles. Must be done in chien forms all time, if you want to feel more the external side of the art.
