Grandmaster Wong explaining the Dragon's spirit and enetgy to George and Daniel

---

Each form has its own characteristic energy and spirit. The Dragon forms are graceful and flowing, yet very powerful because the Dragon’s energy is diffused all over the body. The Dragon’s spirit is calm but penetrating.

If you wish to bring your kungfu to another level, you should manifest the energy and spirit of your form. This, of course, needs to be initiated by a master. As evident from the videos, the course participants of the Special Shaolin Kungfu Course have accomplished this feat very well.

Different Types of Chi Spirit

George in the solo demonstration of his combat sequence from the Dragon-Form Set demonstrates the spirit of chi. Though both are of high level, the spirit of chi here is quite different from that in the previous video clip. Can you tell the difference?

Graceful and Flowing Spirit of the Dragon

Grandmaster Wong gives advice on how to further enhance the spirit of chi in George’s performance. He explains the graceful and flowing nature of the Dragon’s spirit of chi, as compared to, for example to the vibrant and ferocious spirit of chi of the Tiger.

Walking the Talk

In Shaolin Wahnam we do not merely talk but also walk. Grandmaster Wong does not merely talk about the Dragon’s spirit of chi, but demonstrates it. Notice the visible difference between the two performances of the same patterns where one has the Dragon’s spirit and the other lacks it.

Correct Repetition to Progress

Acting on Grandmaster Wong’s teaching, George enhances the performance of his Dragon patterns. Instead of performing the corrected movements only once in his sequence, he repeats it for consolidation. Correct repetition is a key to progress.

The Spirit of the Dragon

George and Daniel apply their combat sequences in pre-arranged sparring. Their forms radiate the “spirit of chi”, i.e. radiate an invisible but perceptible force. The “spirit of chi” is flowing and elegant, which are characteristics of the Dragon, and are quite different from the “spirit of chi” of the Tiger shown earlier.

Enhancing the Dragon’s Spirit

Grandmaster Wong shows George how he can enhance his Dragon’s spirit. Notice that the forms Grandmaster Wong demonstrates in both examples are the same, but the spirit is different.

Dragon’s Force All Over the Body

Grandmaster Wong explains that the Dragon’s force is all over the body. Hence, although the movements are graceful, they are very powerful. George is a fast learner. We can see some noticeable improvement in this video clip over the previous one.
