Frosty Posted February 17, 2003 Posted February 17, 2003 There is this Chinese Fighter in the Movie "The Quest" with Jean Claude Van Damme, who fights like a Snake. Does anybody recognize the Art? Even though you prolly cant street-fight with the Style(Just like the Capoeira Guy), it still looks cool. Any Websites or Information would be nice. THX
Ali Posted February 20, 2003 Posted February 20, 2003 I haven't seen the movie so not quite sure about the movement. I thought animal style in westerner' eye is something impractical. Snake Fist is one of the animal style in Chinese martial art world. Snake Fist itself seldom form a single style or school. But many style or Kar has this, e.g Hung Kar, Choy Li Fut & so on. Usually snake fist would parry and attack human's weak point like thoat, eye, heart, lung and joint between bone. People doing snake fist usually need to practise iron palm so as to strengthen the finger bone. Darkness grants me pair of dark black eye,Yet I determine to look for Brightness
craknek Posted March 24, 2003 Posted March 24, 2003 The snake style is Called 'SheQuan' or " She Quan' Not sure if there are other snake styles for Kung Fu, but you can find some very limited information the internet about She Quan "A man can fail many times, but a man is not a failure until he blames someone else""I will not fear...Fear is the mind killer...I will let my fear pass right through me..."

jmd161 Posted April 26, 2003 Posted April 26, 2003 Even though you prolly cant street-fight with the Style What would make you think you can't fight with Snake Style Kung Fu on the streets? One would be very wrong if one did infact think that. Snake Fist kung fu take alot of skill because you are striking to very vital areas of the body.
