Fantastic I think anything that can be soft and hard depending on the situation can be superior to say boxing because in the real world sometimes you may need to just control an aggressive person without causing damage and ending up in trouble also I've often wondered what are the main differences between tiger and eagle claw kung fu
Thanks Sifu Paul & Sifu Kevin, I'm a big fan of Lau Kar-leung's films. They often feature Tiger Claw. I really appreciated learning more in this video. Stay well and all power to the people!
SIFU Paul dropping Jewels. I've always used Tiger Claw on the streets and it works but unfortunately idk the whole system. There are aspects to every Art you can use and add to your repertoire. WRESTLING to Tiger claw??? Pac & lap sao to Tiger Claw??? I use it naturally (JKD).
A lot of back pain, is due to injuries, from not having enough Back and Core strength. Get enough muscles to support your Spine... and it takes a LOT of pressure off of your Spine... and strengthens your structure + posture. You also want to add in Flexibility training, to keep the muscles from becoming TOO TIGHT. Because if your muscles are too tight... and they suddenly contract violently... they can easily Pull your bones out of Alignment. Good Kung Fu training, does help to develop your Core strength, and other Tendon and Tissue strengths. You also develop much greater bone and tissue Density... making everything more durable. My former Wing Chun school, had 2 hr long classes... and the entire first hour, was a hardcore Core exercise routine. A few stretches, followed by 3 sets of Slow-Motion Pushups (3 different kinds), followed by 3 sets of Crunches (3 Different kinds), followed by a 3 to 5 min session of: Slow motion leg circles + slow leg lifts + Extended "Hovers". A few partner leg stretches.. then For a cooldown, a 5 min silent meditation. Only after the workout was fully completed... Did the Sifu go into teaching Drills, Form work, Instructions, etc. But even then, we also had various hardcore exercises, randomly throughout our classes. Such as continually Chopping your Arms outwards to the sides (the retracting them in front of your chest), non-stop, at full speed, for a full 60 seconds (sounds easy, until you actually try it. 30 seconds in, and your arms are on fire. 45sec, and your speed is 20% of what you started out at... and you can barely hold your arms level / up. The last 15 sec, and you have to fight with all of your willpower, barely able to move.. and barely able to keep your burning arms up at all). Or doing a random set of Jumping Squats (cant recall the actual exercise name, where you kick your legs backwards, right after the squat hits the floor). Even then, there may be other endurance drills, such as doing 20 minute, non-stop, very fast, hand-drills (one person keeps punching, and the other uses non-stop Interceptions. You both switch roles at the 10 min marker.. but no breaks / rests, for the entire drill. Slow Motion form work, also Greatly strengthens you, and your Core. A lot of people question this stuff... But I tell them to try Slow Motion pushups, and see what happens: At least 7 seconds to go down, and 7 seconds Up.. for each one. Its a LOT more challenging. The concept is similar, when standing... but its just harder to grasp whats being challenged, until you try it for 1hr long sessions, and fully understand it. (one key, is that you need to relax your muscles, almost to the point where you are about to fall to the floor like a lump of jello. This puts even more strain, on your tendons, for example... and creates Super-Tendon strength... at a sort of Super-Human level. This process takes many months of consistent work, to get to that level)

i love how the Sifu Paul uses English, but when things get fast he naturally starts throwing Cantonese terms in there. Even the sticky hands he casually tells Kevin to use more power in Canto. Whoever taught him must have been hardcore old school and Sifu Paul totally stuck with it. Love watching videos with him in it!
I also love that his English sounds like he has a Chinese accent. I see this with a lot of foreign sifus. It’s very endearing (when it’s not affected).
I used to train karate in the same dojo that had a separate Hung Gar kung fu club training. Those guys are 100% legit fighters. Great system used to love watching them train.
There's something great about the use of animal names when it comes to fighting . The advantage of visualizing . Say I take 2 students of the same exact skill level and separate them . I teach the first one a back kick , showing them how to chamber it properly and thrust it out and back etc , they'll learn a good kick. But if I take the second student and tell them to kick like a Mule , they are immediately going to visualize what they know about how a Mule kicks and emulate it . I likely won't even have to show them very much technique and it will be explosive and powerful. And it doesn't have to be animals of course , but finding the metaphors that best exemplify what you are trying to get across .
This is a great comment! I tried explaining this to someone before and i was having difficulties finding the right way to express myself, and here you just did it so well.
Like all of the other masters, instructors, and coaches you have shown, Sifu Paul has a wealth of knowledge but makes all of it seem so simple and effortless. Great demonstration of the Tiger Claw system. Saw some elements of Hung Kuen in that as well.
This is without a shadow of a doubt, THE best representation of Tiger Claw form Kung Fu! Mad respect and props to Shifu Koh and to you as well Shifu Lee for bringing this display of Tiger Claw form!! 🙏🙇🏻
Beautifully demonstrated and explained by Sifu Paul Koh. You can see that it is in his body. You can tell by his movememnt that through his many years of studey it is internalised.
Thanks for this video and highlighting the differences between wing chun. This was educational for me too, especially the connection to hun gar and the northern styles. Awesome stuff! Kung fu is a family ❤
I really like this style, Sifu Paul is extraordinary, strong, very fluid, very beautiful pedagogy, I love his passion. He reminds me of Sifu Didier Bédard, Wing Chung teacher, 2 experienced teacher full of passion, fluid and very pedagogical. In Quebec in Canada we have the Ninjutsu teacher who is phenomenal with an impressive CV, his name is Bernard Grégoire, very competent.
Great content as usual, my teacher always said if you want to find the application of the internal watch the external arts,fantastic to see a Sifu with that level of knowledge and openness.
Omg no one and I mean no one teaches like this Sifu. My goodness he is detailed with strikes and grapples in his form. I do chen Taiji with a traditional teacher and it's nothing as brutal as this 😮
my father show me this as well. but mostly modern practitioner who work in law enforcement using this style for apprehending criminals it really effective.
Thank you for showing this. I learned a little bit of Tiger in Hung Gar, but I am learning a deeper level of skill of Tiger through Ghor Cho (5 Ancestor Fist). Respect.
Excellent video. I love fujowpai. He broke it down authentically straight out the wai hong lineage. Very rare and valuable principles can be taught in the dynamic tension training. It's similar to hung gar, but there are key differences to that part of training that make the style unique. The ripping is the key takeway for me that makes this art hurt differently. Any techniques that involve a claw will be met with a rip or tear in the pulling action. Wresting and striking simultaneously like a tiger ripping into prey. Its the embodiement of the fighter tiger, and you always feel it later.
This sifu is for real! Not much fan of southern styles but this hong quan is marvelous and sifu Paul is excelent. I'm actually beggining my training in northern style Tang lang quan from wutan but this sifu is amazing
Reminds me of some of the moves in various different systems. It's fascinating that when we reach a level of mastery, the systems all essentially become one. I also just have to laugh at people who say "that wouldn't work in MMA." Considering you aren't allowed to "break bridges" in MMA, I'm not surprised that a system designed to destroy an opponent's bridges and kill them doesn't work in a sport where killing is prohibited. I really enjoy the flow and the long arm strikes in this system. It's great how all the strikes are palm strikes that culminate in that dynamic tension ripping, so you aren't actually hitting with the fingers.
Very good Explanation and inside to the Tiger Claw System. Quan Fa/Kuen Fat has many aspects that only few Masters,Fighters can apply in a real fight. There is a saying "flowery fists and embroidery kicks" , many practise the martial arts only for show and don°t lern the hole system . Greetings from Germany
Would love to hear Kevin Lee speaks Guandongwah someday. All these while I thought he's from Taiwan. And most Taiwanese don't know how to speak Guandongwah
Really cool, thank you! I didnt really get the difference to Hung Gar. Are basically all tiger claw techniques found in Hung Gar aswell or just a few one?
Traditionally, Hung Gar emphasizes "tiger & crane" so there's a wide gamut of both tiger and crane techniques, but there's usually more focus on tiger at the beginner levels. It also uses elements of the other animal styles, but to a lesser degree. One Hung Gar training maxim is, "First you become hard, then you become harder, then you become soft."
@@jamesfrankiewicz5768 Yep, i was aware of that, just wondering if the style presented in the video even got more tiger techniques or if it has been fully included in Hung Gar (except of the high kicks). But thanks for you answer :)
Tiger style is a great Chinese kung fu art very deadly respect to both of you Sifu s much respect Sifu Kevin lee I love your videos it's great your doing videos on different styles of Chinese martial arts besides many others .Sifu m jack soderberg Tibetan Lama kung fu jkd kali Las vegas nv create develop and flow.Sifu Kevin you go to Las Vegas my friend Sifu rafeal is at shaolin lo Han school. Much respect great video.
Where? When? In what scenario? What are you talking about? You think someone goes into a tiger claw form and dynamic tension exhibition in a real street fight or self defense situation? What are you talking about? It’s the same thing with Brazilian jiu jitsu. Do I make fun of it and say “let’s go over to the grass, because the asphalt will be a little tough on my t-shirt and back?” And/or “go easy on those bamboo breaking kicks to my legs when I’m laying in my guard. I don’t want you to bust my acl or tibia, fibula.”
@@Kitch-willsitch You clearly don't understand how effective this style is for street fights. That's what a lot of these styles were designed for. What I can't throw palm strikes in a street fight? I can't rip with fingers and nails and use dynamic tension? I can't break someone's arm, wrist or dislocate a shoulder in a street fight? I can't destroy my attacker's ability to attack? This is nothing like BJJ because the strikes are designed to destroy an opponent while remaining on your feet.
Every time I see these videos I feel like these people are trying to really put the hurt on Kevin. Maybe they’re so powerful in their chosen disciplines that even going at lower force, it’s still substantial. But I sincerely hope it’s not evidence of a lack of restraint. All respect meant.
I doubt it's intentional. My dad worked on the mines for a long time and does mechanic work regularly, so he's monstrously strong. He has amazing control, but his arms and hands are so hard that even light taps or grips while roughhousing can feel like someone just took a stone or a clamp to you, and he can easily manhandle a person while being quite casual XD I assume something similar is happening with masters like these.
@@douglasferguson2353 Literally by definition everything is for mma, it means mixed martial arts. If you pick akung fu style as long as you adapt it and train it to defend against what's commonly done in mma it will work. There is a ton of techniques currently used in mma that come all the way from kung fu and once adapted is probably not going to look a lot like in the forms but in every kung fu style their sparrign and fighting never really looks like their forms.
Why are you even here? I've never understood people that go to videos they're not interested in about topics they have no respect for _just_ to talk smack in the comments. Is your life really that dull?
I did Wing Chun, and reached a high level of mastery. Countless fighters always seemed to assume that I couldnt fight... the moment they saw me step into their Dojo, with a Kung Fu Uniform on (they have Open sparring events, in many local schools, where I live). Then Id mop the floor with the biggest and best students... and they would be utterly shocked, asking what I learned, and for how long... as they shook my hand. But even back then... I was prejudiced against things like Animal Styles... thinking they would not be Fast enough for real combat... The I met a dude, that knew about 7 different arts. Most of which were Chinese arts. I eventually got him to spar against me. He could go from more modern upright methods... into Shaolin deep stances, and he made ALL of it work flawlessly. I got like 2 Grazes on him (and boy, did I ever Pay dearly for those... from his absolutely BRUTAL Counters!)... While he lit me up.. for 45 minutes. He also showed me some Brutal Tiger Claw methods... such as a 3 part setup, with the finisher... where you hit so hard that the OPs jaw becomes Unhinged from its Socket. And another one... where you thrust your fingers deep into the OPs body... and then Hook your fingers behind the back of their Ribs... then YANK as hard as you can, to break the rib from the inside. Very Devastating stuff. So, yeah... it can and does work. Remember, the Ancient Chinese didnt have Police men to protect them... especially out in the middle of nowhere, walking between towns. These arts methods, were tested and used countless times, in real life-ending fights.. for well over one thousand years. The main reason why most people today, are unable to fight with these arts methods... is mostly due to a lack of dedicated Mastery. As well as a lack of heavy sparring experience... against various other arts artists. As its one thing to be exceptional in Forms and Drills... and a whole other level, to be able to perform these things flawlessly, under high speed, high pressure, while dealing with Heavy forces. Many modern students, simply lack the Dedication, to push themselves... to such a level of Mastery.
Thanks for watching! What do you think of Tiger Claw?

Tiger and monkey it's my favourite style, something that kung Fu panda has teached me
It looks great. However if they can do some sparring to see how he can actually implement those techniques, that would be better.

are you wearing a set of mma gloves in a real fight?
Is your opinion based on actual experience????
"Last Chance"... what an appropriate name.
I did Wing Chun, and reached a high level of mastery. Countless fighters always seemed to assume that I couldnt fight... the moment they saw me step into their Dojo, with a Kung Fu Uniform on (they have Open sparring events, in many local schools, where I live). Then Id mop the floor with the biggest and best students... and they would be utterly shocked, asking what I learned, and for how long... as they shook my hand.
But even back then... I was prejudiced against things like Animal Styles... thinking they would not be Fast enough for real combat...
The I met a dude, that knew about 7 different arts. Most of which were Chinese arts. I eventually got him to spar against me. He could go from more modern upright methods... into Shaolin deep stances, and he made ALL of it work flawlessly. I got like 2 Grazes on him (and boy, did I ever Pay dearly for those... from his absolutely BRUTAL Counters!)... While he lit me up.. for 45 minutes.
He also showed me some Brutal Tiger Claw methods... such as a 3 part setup, with the finisher... where you hit so hard that the OPs jaw becomes Unhinged from its Socket. And another one... where you thrust your fingers deep into the OPs body... and then Hook your fingers behind the back of their Ribs... then YANK as hard as you can, to break the rib from the inside.
Very Devastating stuff. So, yeah... it can and does work. Remember, the Ancient Chinese didnt have Police men to protect them... especially out in the middle of nowhere, walking between towns. These arts methods, were tested and used countless times, in real life-ending fights.. for well over one thousand years. The main reason why most people today, are unable to fight with these arts methods... is mostly due to a lack of dedicated Mastery. As well as a lack of heavy sparring experience... against various other arts artists. As its one thing to be exceptional in Forms and Drills... and a whole other level, to be able to perform these things flawlessly, under high speed, high pressure, while dealing with Heavy forces. Many modern students, simply lack the Dedication, to push themselves... to such a level of Mastery.
Last chance
Attack a real traditional kf practitioner like Sifu Paul and he'll prove you sooooo wrong. Good luck on your life learning experience.
Kevin,
I am sure you can do better. There is no way you can use this against a real fighter.
Looking forward for your next video.
Exactly 💯 stop entertaining these "artists"
Can't use it in sport but most of these systems weren't designed for sports.
It's laughable
