on a MUCH lesser note: this is a nice drill/ form
Be aware: Southern Preying Mantis can be learnt as a form of Wushu, the moving of the arms and the legs but no energy.
"To watch and mimic is to dance, there is no truth without the internal"
The curriculum covers everything from the exercises, energy work, forms, single person drills, applications, and more!
The first form is "Saarm Bo Jin", or 3 Step Arrow.
3 Step Arrow is simple by technique, but it is very hard by practice; through this form you will begin to attain the ging energy needed for point striking. An example is the Phoenix fist, it is through this form that the fingers are strengthened so that the phoenix fist becomes a much more solid force with a piercing power .This form is done slowly, and the arms are always in front with the punching done at a short distance. It is from this practice that power is attained at short distance. Even though the first form is basic, you could easily say that it's one of the most advanced forms as well.
