Grandmaster Wong shows Steve how to employ "Double Dragons Emerge from Sea" to generate internal force at the start of the Dragon-Tiger Set

---

Our Shaolin Kungfu comes from two main lineages, that of Grandmaster Lai Chin Wah who was more widely known as Uncle Righteousness, and that of Grandmaster Ho Fatt Nam. Hence, our name “Wahnam”.

Uncle Righteousness was well known for the beauty and variety of kungfu forms; Grandmaster Ho Fatt Nam for combat application. Both of them were great fighters.

Grandmaster Wong combined the essence of Uncle Righteousness’ forms with the combat application of Grandmaster Ho Fatt Nam. The result was the Dragon-Tiger Set which crystalizes the best of these two traditions.

Double Dragons to Develop Internal Force

After the salutation, Steve performs “Double Dragons Emerge from Sea”. Many people perform this pattern merely as external form, missing the inner essence. It is an important pattern to develop internal force. Presence of mind and correct breathing are important.

Against a Low Swinging Punch

The patterns here are “Fui Sing Kicks Bushel”, “Golden Cockerel Stands Solitarily”, “Reverse Hanging of Golden Lotus” and “White Tiger Presents Claw”. There is a transitional pattern called “Enter Sea to Seek Shells”, which Grandmaster Wong remarks is an effective counter against a low swinging punch. Steve demonstrates its application excellently.

The Famous Butterfly Palms

The pattern here is “Double Butterflies Fly together”, which incorporates the famous Shaolin Butterfly Palm which, I believe, not found in any other martial arts. The Butterfly Palms are very useful in combat but not many know how to use them. The circular movement of the palms are very important

Hand Sweeps and Butterfly Palms

Steve jumps around to execute “Horse-Riding Hand Sweep”. Following this are the two transitional patterns “Bow-Arrow Hand Sweep” and “Black Tiger Steals Heart”, and then the pattern “Z-Shape Butterfly Palms”. What do you think the Z-Shape Butterfly Palms are useful for? Is there any special reason for adopting the Unicorn Step?

Correct Foot Position for Reverse Bow-Arrow

Steve proceeds to the patterns “God of Wealth Tames Tiger”, “Lead Horse Back to Stable” and “Golden Leopard Speeds Through Jungle”. Grandmaster Wong shows the correct form of the reverse Bow-Arrow Stance for “Lead Horse Back to Stable”. Notice the positions of the two feet. If the foot positions are incorrect, the stance will be flimsy.
