Shaolin Five Animals School

Highlights from Nam Pai Chuan’s 2012 animal school training weekend. The footage shows students practicing traditional forms and experimenting with applications based on Plum Blossom Willow Palm, Lohan Boxing, and five animal styles, leopard, snake, eagle, monkey, and tiger. In our Kung Fu system each unique style has five elements closely associated with it. This approach increases the practitioner’s repertoire of combat techniques and provides different movement options for any given situation. Martial artists usually specialise in one or two auxiliary styles, either to reinforce existing strengths, or fortify one’s own weaknesses. A significant part of this type of training is body conditioning exercises relevant to the specific style, it’s hard work, and takes considerable time to develop effective skill.
