Choy Gar village demo, boxing and weapons

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXlXjTereBY

From the description:
Quote:
Choy Gar Kuen (Choy Family Boxing)
The demonstration is from a village in Lianjiang county, in the Zhanjiang area of south-western Guangdong province.
One of the five big families of Southern Shaolin in Guangdong, Choy Gar traces it's origins to Choy Gau Yee of Guangdong. Although one of the famous five family styles and a major influence on the development of arts like Choy Lay Fut and Jow Gar, Choy Gar is rarely seen outside the villages of southern Guangdong.

Kind regards,
Xian

Wow. I admire the sheer exuberance of the audience as well as the performers. You can tell that these people love their art.

Thanks for the link. It's hard to find any clips on Choy Gar on the interwebs.

I was trying to figure out why I didn't like the execution of those forms. Check out the feet--they're not very rooted.
