Thanks so much for this! I studied this style almost 40 years ago, and got almost all the way through this set, then had to stop because of a series of unavoidable, serious surgeries. After recovering much later, I managed to keep up the conditioning exercises (fingertip & fist pushups, punching drills, stretches, leg exercises etc.) and the all-important chi gung, but lost track of the basic set. Now I live nowhere near a Hung Gar sifu. But now, thanks to your thoughtfulness in making this video, I'm finally getting back to the form. You da man!
While i am by far a practitioner of any old skool kung fu styles. i can highly appreciate this form . It's still on the wishlist to learn this form . In the meantime, i'll stick with my tai chi and chi kung forms. But it's always apleasure watching this form over and over again. It's very appealing. Who knows somewhere in the future i may get the opportunity to learn this form. Sincere regards,
That is the un-watered down Shaolin form straight from Gee San ,through Wong Fei ,to Chui Chi Lin.The Tiger Crane form, From Tiger Crane Hung Gar.( Not Lau Gar, Choy Gar, or Black Tiger).
Thanks a few critics for ya the gan sau, tan sau at the beginning are like two bamboo or two characters that are on the outside and the intricate hand movements make the eye outer check and mouth of the tiger. They used to do those movements one on each side and both together. The rest of everything looks really close.
Hey man. We used to talk years ago then I moved to Singapore in 2010. Scottish Hung Ga guy. Do you remember me? Glad to see ya even if the videos 7 years old. Haha
Most Hung Gar schools teach Tiger Crane after Gung Gee Fook Fu Kuen (Taming the Tiger). Taming the Tiger is good for building up your stances and endurance, making it much easier to learn Tiger Crane :)
Brother of kung fu, please, could you doit again but with an static front view camera, im having a lot of trouble understanding the section 3 perspective change, there is no other way for me to learn in mi country and its my dutty to spread this Magnificent Martial Art for my other brothers
Very nice Tiger Crane.... I learn this form in 1984, Under Sifu Michael Manganiello, Ling Nam sui Lum, Long Island, NY. Sifu Mike, was GM Frank Yee's top pupil until Sifu decided to open his own school and switch to Village Style Hung Ga.
Good, try to employ more waist and hip power rather than only shoulder and elbow. Same for your kicks: power begins in the centre of the body rather than a knee snap starting a kick.The best karate kickers in Shotokan have developed this thrusting hip and waist power. Look to their best practitioners to get the gist of what I mean. I learned this form for my brown belt grading in the Temple school in London in 1982 under Sifu Tony Leung. It is great for stamina building.

Thanks for posting! It looks good. Both like and unlike my own Hung Gar - different lineage. Still, clean and clear. Well done.
That looks cool 👍

Спасибо брат. ❤ Привет Вам из России. Город Самара.
thank you
I have a question it seems this tiger crane forms do alot of horse stance and footsteps was it a priority to learn it first?

Nice.
