Do you knoz is there're additiobnal contents in the Longfist dvd? Or is it only the montage of the yi lu/er lu mai fu, xiao hu yan and shi zhi tang video tapes?[/quote]
I think there may be an added lecture bit, but Dvivid would know more. Here's the text from the catalog:
[quote]Shaolin Long Fist
Kung Fu
Intermediate Sequences
Performed by Nicholas C. Yang
and Senior Students
Nicholas C. Yang instructs and demonstrates four
intermediate-level Shaolin Long Fist sequences
and their martial applications.
Yi Lu Mai Fu and Er Lu Mai Fu, the first and second
Ways of Ambush, are powerful fundamental
sequences that instruct clever and subtle methods
for defense and attack. Both contain practical and
effective martial applications for striking, kicking,
blocking, and withdrawal techniques.
Shi Zhi Tang, the Crossing Sequence, builds on Yi
Lu and Er Lu Mai Fu with the addition of different kicks, jumps, side
door attacks, and applications of more forceful techniques. Xiao Hu
Yan, the Roaring Tiger Sequence, is a challenging and exciting
sequence combining techniques from Long Fist and Northern Praying
Mantis. Xiao Hu Yan emphasizes low stances, powerful kicks, leg
sweeps, trapping, and striking. Each form is divided into sections to
help you learn gradually at your own pace. This format helps you in
understanding and practicing the techniques. These traditional
sequences are an excellent way to train speed, strength, timing, and
sense of enemy. They are fitting sequences for demonstrating your
skills and techniques during competitions.
Dr.Yang, Jwing-Ming makes a guest appearance and discusses the history
and theory behind each sequence. This DVD builds upon the
skills in the Shaolin Long Fist Kung Fu Basic Sequences DVD and the
Shaolin Kung Fu Fundamental Training DVD.
