Hi Guys,
As beeing a CLF idiot, I wanted to learn a bit about it. There is a lot of discussion about the various major branches. So I thought I’d ask for a quick discription that a NON choy li fut person might understand. I am somewhat familiar with different people doing choy li fut and I think I can see some differences, but the nuances are lost on me. For instance, I am some what familiar with the Lau Bun lineage in SF and have seen some of the Lacey’s stuff. Some Tat Mau Wong and Doc Fai Wong, as well as some other stuff spread around the net.
My question would be, what differentiates the Chan family, Buk Sing, and Hung Sing CLF? How would you characterize the differences and defend the statement ‘a buk sing flavor’ as I recently read? What is Buk Sing or any other flavor?
Then of course, what are the core that all Choy Li Fut have in common?
Hopefully this won’t get political or too technical. Just enough so an outsider might be able to appreciate the different forms of choy li fut, and at the lest, follow some of these other threads. Perhaps a quick history lesson on how these all relate to each other would be good to.
