Leopard claw Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 Did you learn these and use them? How many nuns could a nunchuk chuck if a nunchuk could chuck nuns?
Sohan Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 Did you learn these and use them?Not directly, but since much of our system has origins in Chinese Gung Fu, and we study Hung Gar at the same school, we are able to view our art with more understanding of the animal style origins than if we did not.With respect,Sohan "If I cannot become one of extraordinary accomplishment, I will not walk the earth."

Brandon Fisher Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 The crane is used alot in my system but since my karate is mainly based on Shorin Ryu I have not formally been taught the animals. I did know what they were at one time but I am drawing a blank right now. I need to check my notes. Brandon FisherSeijitsu Shin Do
bushido_man96 Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 TKD doesn't really have a lot of animal concepts in it. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
cathal Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 My system goes through elemental training, not animal training. But that does sound interesting. .The best victory is when the opponent surrendersof its own accord before there are any actualhostilities...It is best to win without fighting.- Sun-tzu

kamikaiguy Posted February 3, 2007 Posted February 3, 2007 I train a system called Kamite-Ryu Karate-Jutsu. It is rooted in Shorin-Ryu. Anyway all Martial arts of Shuri Origin have Monk fist, and White Crane. Most notably White Crane. If you examine the Kata it is very evident and quite noticable.My challenge to you is to find the Crane in your favorite kata. So many people claim to know the origin of their art but don't unserstand it. Let have fun with this. Find the Crane in the Bunkai of your favorite kata. Even Shotokan as changed as their kata are there is still Crane in the Bunkai.Yours in the Martial Arts Dwayne T.
