    But that is just one form not necessarily the entire system or style.

    More Chan Dau Kung Fu during his anniversary in 2010 in Hong Kong.

    Thank, EJ, for the info + video.
    Looking at the "training itinerary" at http://www.hongluck.org/training-itinerary.html
    I recognize the names of some CLF forms: Ng Lum Kuen, Ng Lum Ma, Siu Moi Fa, Dat Mo Kuen.
    I've seen Mr Chon performing their Ng Lum Kuen and did not recognize Chan Family's Ng Lum Choi in it. On the other hand, their Siu Mui Fa looks like Chan Fam.
    As to Siu Nan Kuen, it reads "Hun Gar", but it's surely not Lam Sai Wing's style.

    Definitely Lama in its entirety. In Pak Hok Pai we have also a form with the same name but I've never seen it performed yet so I can't say how similar it would be.
    That said the techniques displayed in that video are all Lama, Pao, Kup, Chao, Tsin, so on so forth

    Chan Dau learned some Hop Gar. I think that info is on their website. Doesn't say who his teacher was though

    My Sifu (who was a senior student of Chan Yin Wah, who also trained a bit with Paul Chan) told me that Crane was a major component of Do Pi.
    Now, having trained fairly extensively in Toisan Sil Lum and Lee Hin CLF, I've never seen Siu Nam Kuen, and I don't believe it's on the complete list of hand forms that my Sifu gave me either (I'll check in the morning). Therefore there's a good chance that it's Do Pi or something that Paul Chan picked up in HK, although it may be something that Wong Chun Yip taught only to Paul Chan.

    When I did Lee Hin the 5 wheel stance was done more like Tan Tui than a proper form.

    umm what exactly is your point now, and what are you after?

    you have asked questions and been answered but are still posting clips

  13. #43
    Thought it was obvious that the clips were meant to visually illustrate the topic. I apologize for not making that clear.

    The point is that I have found those clips of Mr Chon performing Ng Lun Kuen and Siu Nan Kuen a couple of days ago and up to this point none had posted a specific clip of Master Paul Chan's Choy Lee Fut (remember, Siu Nan Kuen is "Hung Gar"). So, this is a contribution, a gift for the posters, not posted before because unknown until last weekend.

    So, here it is: Ng Lun Kuen, that is, a visual record of Master Paul Chan's CLF.

    Just asked my Sifu, he said the Siu Nam Kuen is a Paul Chan form.

    paul chan passed away this morning in toronto, ontario. For those in the area, his funeral will be in a few days.
    As for the club curriculum, the website has not been updated, for the past few years they have been emphasizing the original hop gar system.
    ....
    For the inquiry as per tony vesseti, he died suddenly in a highway accident in 1992. He left behind a wife and young son.
    oh no....my condolences to his students and family.
