Hung Gar
Based on the movements of the Tiger and the Crane, Hung Gar is deeply rooted in the basic moral principles of honesty,
righteousness, and an indomitable spirit. Originally practiced on moving boats where stability was paramount, Hung Gar
is probably best known for its powerful stance work. This system has a wealth of offensive techniques from the Crane and
Tiger arts and makes extensive use of what is known as bridgework - used to either "bridge the gap" between the pugilist
and his opponent or else to destroy the bridges of one's opponent. |
