Eagle claw Kung Fu is one of the few modern Chinese martial arts derived from real military combat experience. It is a powerful system featuring advanced locking-hand moves perfected over many centuries of civil conflict in China. This text covers the crucial first 30 locking-hand techniques, punches, kicks and the all-important signature claws of Ying Jow Pai.
Chinese kung fu originated thousands of years ago. In the time since its birth, it has continuously spread and been refined. Today, kung fu is a popular sport practiced everywhere in the world.
Nowadays, there are so many kung fu systems that it can be difficult to choose the right one to study. It is very important to find out which systems and teachers are authentic. If you want to study kung fu, you should shop around and keep your eyes and ears open. Find out the history of the style and check the background of the instructor to be sure he is really qualified. There are many sifus (teachers) out there who studied only for a short time before opening their own schools. There are even some who learned only from watching videos. Video is, of course, a powerful learning tool, but without checking your progress with a qualified teacher you cannot be sure whether you've learned correctly or not.
Therefore, anyone claiming to be a teacher who learned from videos without getting a certification from a master is really not qualified to teach. Don't be tricked; look around and ask a lot of questions before you sign up at any kung fu school. You may just be wasting time and money.
This book was written for people desiring more information about martial arts in general and the Eagle Claw System in particular. It contains information based on my fifty years of experience practicing and teaching kung fu, both in Hong Kong and in the United States. My hope is that with this book I can make the Eagle Claw System more well known. For those who have never heard of this system, this book offers information on one of the oldest styles of Chinese kung fu. For those who already practice, this book provides valuable insight into the secrets of the Eagle Claw System.
