I do three animal kung fu (Leopard, Tiger, Dragon). . . have dabbled in the other two (Snake, Crane) but didnt keep them up.
Panther is a "second level" animal style and so isnt normally grouped as being one of the Shao-lin five. . . . _________________ "We follow the World,

yeah, it was my mistake, i tend to mix the 2 names up- leopard and panther.
however, ive read that panther is part of the leopard, but at a more advanced stage. _________________ <<Kajukenbopr>> Be humble, train hard, fight dirty |

Don't forget that the snake is rooted and strikes with extreme accuracy to vital areas as well as the grappling and seizing that you mentioned. _________________ I had to lose my mind to come to my senses. |

I'm still doing it with him.. just on and off. It went from learning exclusively snake to his little mix as I found it to be a little more useful. The snake part of it is still the most fascinating to me. There's a strike that looks like VT's tan sao, where you shoot up from under the leading hand and strike the soft of the opponent's throat in an upward motion. I found myself using it in our VT class. There seem to be a lot of ties between snake and VT, and they compliment eachother well. _________________ "They look up, without realizing they're standing in the palm of your hand"

I use that strike in a walk for LJK. . . 'tis a Spear Hand Strike. When preceeded by a block it is very effective... _________________ "We follow the World,

I believe that the move you just described actually exists in Wing Chun, at least in the lineage practiced by me.

Wing Chun is a fascinating art that contains a lot of snake influence, specially at the latter stages of study. Of course, it also contains Crane, Tiger and Dragon influences. _________________ Use your time on an art that is worthwhile and not on a dozen irrelevant "ways". |
