Of all the versions I've seen, this one is almost identical to the form that we practice! This has been an awesome reference for me to watch energy flow and application. Thank you for posting!
Thank you, my sifu Javier Carrera was student of sifu Virgilio (former student of GM Chan Hon) and sifu YC Wong at San Francisco. so we always want to keep in touch.
It is from the Pek kwar tai shing system as taught by Ken Dak Hoi. My Sigung and him were very good friends. I am not sure when it was introduced to the hung gar system, but this particular version is for sure from the Lam family. I do know that other lineages do teach it. Their flavor is different however and looks different. I learned it from My Sifu Yc Wong. I think (not sure) that my Sifu learned it from Ken Dak Hoi directly.
FYI< to clarify, the version I learned and am referencing to this form being a "northern form" was taught to me by my Sifu, who was taught by Grand Master Kwam Wing Lam in California. You can look up Wing Lam Enterprises for further information, but apparently I can't post web addresses. He also has a RUclips channel. :D
I have seen several version of this set personally. Each clearly has a different feel. For instance, those that come directly Lam family look more southern. Some have more of northern flavor. I know for sure that at least the Chan hon Chung branch has a version of this though I have never seen it in total.
The foot stomp in pretty characteristic of the Pek Kwar style. In all the hands set we do (from Ken Dak Hoi lineage) has them. Though to be honest I have only seen our school and few others do the hand sets. I am not sure if the Monkey King teaches them anymore. It seems like their focus is more monkey then the axe hand nowadays. If you have any of the hand sets on film I would love to see them!
Pek Kwar Darn Do is a Northern Shaolin Temple form. It's not part of the Hung Gar system, although there's no reason for your Sifu to have not taught it to you if he felt you were ready, it's a wonderful Northern form typically associated with the Gu Yu Cheong system (which includes Tun Da, Moi Fa, Sik Fot, etc). This version is definitely "modified", but there are -of course- different interpretations (the form deviates from what I learned at 15sec in at the stomp).

What lineage are your from?
@@yogicmotion I am from the lineage of SiGung Kwong Wing Lam - I am a disciple under SiFu Steve Kleppe
@@shietiero that would make sense, lam sigung and my sifu used to practice together I think either in the 50s or 60s.
@@yogicmotion That's right! Your material is awesome, and it is an honor to see such amazing Kung Fu from "extended family" :)
Thanks!
The wear on the floor of the training area lets you know there was some hard-core Hung Kune going on there !
Over 40 years of it! I think they have been in that location for nearly 42 to 43 years
I remember seeing this video 7 or 8 years ago and thinking - wow, some day I'm going to move to Hong Kong and keep studying. And I did that!
That's awesome!
