LEARNING THE TIGER-CRANE SET

Tiger-Crane Set

How long does it take to learn a kungfu set? Usually it takes a few months. But in Shaolin Wahnam, students typically learn a kungfu set within a few days! Yet, not only their forms are correct, but also their movements are fluid, their force reasonable and their breathing regulated.

This is possible because they have spent much time in basic training. Basically to them learning a set is putting together various patterns or sequences in a meaningful order, and remembering the order. But much work begins after a set is learnt, like applying the patterns in effective combat. This video clip shows Sifu Wong teaching Eugene and David the famous Tiger-Crane Set in Toronto in 2003.
