The Series: Leung Shum continues his series based on the first four years of training in the Eagle Claw system. What’s nice about this series is that each form is completely broken down and taught. Then we see the basic principles of the Eagle Claw system itself, famous for its Chin Nah applications. NOTE: Viewers should remember that these DVDs were taken from VHS tapes made in the 70’s and 80’s. Don’t expect HD.

#24828 Shaolin Eagle Claw Boxing
Wang Hai Ying gives a vigorous performance of Shaolin Eagle Claw. Not only is this hefty practitioners surprisingly fast and agile, but he is fast. Is there some trace of Contermporary Wushu here, probably, but that will be the fact of the future. Yet there is far less posing and a much greater variety of usage here than we see in the eagle-wannabes. Not an easy set if you actually want to do the broom, tornado, jump, turning crescents et al. Eagle Claw is a beautiful and acrobtic boxing but it is best when there is content accompanying the skill. Wang himself if a native of the DengFeng area around the Temple. He was taught by Wang XiBi (his father), Monk Su Xi and Monk Wang Chao Fan. He teaches at his own school, police academies and for large production companies presenting Shaolin as performances arts. He is considered by some to by one of the 100 top boxers in China.
