the rum soaked fist: internal martial arts forum

somebody named huang, lian shun?

anyway, that's not the point. the point is, we can embed youku!

WOW

Just noticed that there is a youku embedding button on the menu.

Yes. Way Kool.

Awsome backdrop to the clip!

That was a really cool set!! Sal told me what it was once, but I can't remember at the moment. I think it is one road of a much longer form. I amy be wrong, but I seem to recall that it is related to these sets.

Notice how they seem to all end with the bow drawn posture? Then the next one starts with it?

i think the description said it was the second section?

I have to look closer and see if it matches the other one. I seem to remember it being the 4th section, but I can't read the Chinese.

I should PM Sal, he'd know all this off the top of his head.

That video is from a Shandong martial art system.

He is doing 2nd Road of this Tai Zu Quan set.
This set is mislabeled 4th Road on some video sites.

A student is showing the 4th Road on youtube.
It's different than this video shown here.

All of Huang, lian shun sets are from a Shandong system that one of my teachers does, there's about a dozen of his sets on youtube showing.

So this set is not related to the other two then?

Do you have some links? I tried a search on the name and it came up empty.

This Long Fist system is Shandong derived. It is completely different than the Harbin (near Mongolia) Long Fist system that also does a series of Tai Zu Chang Quan sets. The Harbin TZ Quan is what Shi De Jian and Shi De Gian and their teacher Wu Gu Lun practiced first before they learned Shaolin internal system.

Dave C. wrote a bit about this gentleman and his lineage, which seems to be mostly from Chen Panling and Gao Fangxian:

Cool articals. Seems like the Tai tzu was part of an over all Shaolin curriculum.

Don't know why it is called Shaolin, since that list of Gao's Shantong related sets barely has any Shaolin sets at all.
Luohan Quan, of course.

On the non Shaolin sets, are these local villiage sets made up of Shaolin techniques? Or completely unrelated material?

They are a survey of various Shantong styles:

Cha Quan
Sun Bin
N Mantis
Shaolin Long Fist
Nanjing school
Mei Hua
Ditang
Six Harmony
etc
etc
etc

Wow, I've just about learned all these sets from one person or another over the years.

That Lian Wu Chang is related to Tai Zu Quan, it is part of Ditang style, but a middle basin set, not low to the ground.
I've seen it translated was Connected Martial Palms OR Connected Five Palms (Wu being the character for 5 rather than Martial).
There are videos of the Lian Wu Chang set in youtube, where sometimes it is labels as Ditang Quan.
