Southern Dragon Kung Fu (Lung Ying Kuen)
Our school specializes in Southern Dragon Kung Fu (Lung Ying Kuen), but also rotates practices in Bak Mei and Southern Praying Mantis. Sifu Andrew Chung has been practicing and teaching these traditional forms for over 50 years, learning from grandmasters who have been passing down the art form through many generations in Southern China.
Like many of the Southern Kung Fu styles, Lung Ying focuses on short and medium range combat. It uses both 'hard' (external) and 'soft' (internal) techniques to advance, strike, defend, parry, and the practitioner will utilize a rooted stance and footwork characterized by a 'zig zag' triangular pattern. Power is generated from the hip and back, and strikes are delivered quickly from the center and to the left/right at 33 degree angles.
“Control yourself, let others do what they will.
This does not mean you are weak.
Control your heart, obey the principles of life.
This does not mean others are stronger.”
History
Lung Ying Kuen was developed by Grandmaster Lam Yiu Gwai, who was born in 1877 in Huìyáng County in the prefecture of Huizhou in Guangdong Province, China. The original teachings can be traced back to a monk named Daai Yuk from a temple in the sacred mountain Luófúshan, who passed the fundamental art form to Lam Yiu Gwai. Lung Ying Kuen is therefore a combination of the monk's teachings and the local styles of the Hakka heartland in inland eastern Guangdong. He then established several martial arts schools with his son, Lam Woong Gong, and close friend, Cheung Lai Chuen, grandmaster of Bak Mei.
