Description: instructor: Liu Zhenhai, monk Degen's disciple Shaolin kung fu big flood form (大洪拳: da hong quan): - 'strategy': the saying is "conceal from the sky to cross the sea (瞒天过海)." advancement needs crossing the enemy's guard. this puts you in range of enemy's counterattacks. you should not be open and exposed to enemy's attacks. keep covering your attacking limbs, your head, chest, stomach, and other vital parts while advancing and even retreating. this involves continuous flow, like a flood, of sweeping moves of the arms and even sometimes the legs covering the main actions of the body while defending and attacking, advancing and retreating. meanwhile, do not consider these sweeping moves as mere defensive covers, but "pilfer a goat on the way (顺手牵羊)," i.e., seize opportunities to use them cooperate as attacks. this is the main strategy of Shaolin flood style. - 'history': Zhao Kuangyin, the first emperor of the Song dynasty (960-1279), gave Shaolin temple a series of notes on the combat styles that he practiced. Shaolin monks edited one of his styles to develop the 'big hong quan'. __________________ Shaolin kung fu tutorials: - training: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLB9EB410ECABF43C8 - styles: youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8F75C68BF1246C2B - weapons: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE48D537F756421A2
