Review of the Special Shaolin Kungfu Course of 16th to 22nd April 2007 – Part 14
THE DRAGON-FORM SET
Demonstrating that Softness Can be Very Powerful
This pattern, known as "Dragon Manifests Miraculous Power", is not just for combat application, but to manifest internal force
Many people think that it is necessary to be hard to be powerful. This is not necessary so. The Dragon Form Set manifests much internal force yet it is soft and flowing. In fact, a master of the Dragon force can be so powerful that he can damage opponents by an apparently gentle flick of any part of his body!
This set was taught to Grandmaster Wong in his young days by his siheng, Por Lok, in Grandmaster Ho Fatt Nam’s lineage in exchange for the Tiger-Crane Set. His siheng learned this Dragon Form Set not from Grandmaster Ho but from another teacher. Nevertheless, Grandmaster Wong derived the internal force and understood the combat application of the set as a result of his training with Grandmaster Ho.
The Dragon Form Set is from Northern Shaolin. The patterns are simple, but the application profound.
