Okay folks, Might be too early to take this route but I'm just fishing for feedbacks. What if I were to post pictures of forms from various style in this forum and use that as a reference for discussions? We could get folks who do the forms to tell us about history/techniques/applications etc etc. I got a form here from Pak Mei called “Sam Mun Choy” or “3 doors Fist”. Seen this done in Singapore and love the power play and crispiness. Would love to learn more about this form. Any ideas guys? If you guys are game, I promise I'll go out and get a proper scanner and not shoot using a digital camera. Wait, first gotta beat wife in Kung Fu...;D ;D ;D ;D

An Excelent idea Eric. Would love to see more of Hood chew pak hok Techniques, They seem similar to some tecniques of Spm but maybe the application and use of power may differ.
Don't try beat you're wife in kung fu , Females more cunning and deadly than the males (Sleep with one eye open)

I wish I could see how he moves from posture to posture. The transition movements would tell me more than pictures of the endstate ever could. Thank you very much Eric for these pictures and your time. Now I go back to bed. I have the flu today. Ed

I wish the pics were clearer. I had the opportunity to learn this form from a guy in exchange for teaching him Lau Ga Kuen. At the time, either it was the way he played it, or my lack of education in Bak Mei, but I thought it was a redundant set. It seemed to simply be the same techniques going in three directions. Of course, I later found out that there was much more to this set than I'd realized, and that it was considered a valuble set in Bak Mei. Chalk that one up to experience, next time, I won't be so quick to judge using my VAST knowledge! Ahhh, to be young and stupid again. Hey, BTW, is that the only pics of the set, or do you have it in its entirety?

Hey, BTW, is that the only pics of the set, or do you have it in its entirety? Yes got it in full. In fact, I've got quite a collection of forms from the other Hakka systems like YKM, Lung Ying etc.. Once I've got a scanner, you guys should be able to see clearer pictures. Need to think of a way to archive my old books and magazines before they decompose hahahaha...

Hi Eric,
I've been wanting to ask you this. How do you post pictures from books or from websites to this forum? It would be great if you can give newcomers a guideline on how to do it. Lastly, what's a carlsberg? =)

Dear Konghan,
It is actually a rather common skill seen in many Southern arts, as well as Northern arts. Although there might be a direct relation with Cantonese - Fukienese area. But that's a long talk and explanation. I prefer to keep it short, in this thread.
In Hung Kuen this skill is known as "Monkey Steals the Peach". But I am afraid that this is essentailly linked to one or two applications. Iron Wire Boxing have the Six hidden elbows, as explained in earlier letters. Hakka Lee Ga Kuen ( Daai Sap Tji kuen) have this skill too, and finally I learned a Ba Zhao, or eight elbows/ shorts of the Tai Ji Mei Hua tang lang system (Northern), which execute this skill quite a few times. I have seen it also in Choy Lee Fut, Lama Pai, Chat Sing Tong Long,.......
I would conclude that it is a very effective skill as used in many Chinese Traditional systems practiced in Northern and Southern China. But also outside the borders of China. Ong Bak was really good at it too.
Warm regards,
Evert.

Hi PaulH, Sorry, I’m just ribbing you there. Don’t take it too hard. I think Evert, the crazy Dutchie, is equally ignorant. But he’s just pretending that he understands the secret art of “Carlsberg”. Okay here’s how I post pictures:- 1. I upload all my picture to www.photobucket.comThis is a free service and you just need to register. 2. Once the pictures are there, I simply right-click and copy the URL. 3. When I want to post, I just click the 2nd row, 4th button in the “ADD TAG” area. Then this appears: "(img]URL[/img)". 4. Highlight the URL and right click to paste the URL copied at photobucket. Maybe other members do it differently. Share?

Eric,
This sam moon tsui form has been included into the Pak Mei curriculum by grandmaster Cheung Lai Chuen. It isn't considered a Pak Mei original, but it coms from the Lee Gar style. The form is really practical stressing the use of basic techniques in combination with footwork.
Regards, Lau
