I know there are MANY CLF forms over the 3 main branches so even “flavour” wise?
or is this obvious Bullshido?
Form is called “Ginger Fist”
Basically, the origin of the form was done in the Ginger Fields of China, and the form is actually based off the move where I drop down and throw the dirt or the mud at my opponent. The Actual Name of the Form in Chinese is NG Hum Ni. So, the actual form was named after one of the sifus saw a bird fling mud at a prey bird in a ginger field.
I don’t have any idea what “style” this guy practices but from the looks of his form, there might be a chance this is from the Ed Parker Kenpo System or some offshoot? I’m just grasping at straws. I had read (I believe here) that Ed Parker had studied some CLF.
Either way, there is definitely no CLF flavor to this set at all so even if it was originally a CLF form it has been modified so much that it is no longer CLF.
[QUOTE=fawlung;829762]Definitely can’t call this a CLF form.

sounds like someone has been watching too many movies.
i tried to be open to the possiblity that possibly this guy may have had some “ELEMENTS” of choy lee fut, but if there ever was any, it was completely stripped bare of it.
However, it does look as if he started his form after the LONG salute of choy lee fut forms. the left and right movements are typical in clf sets…
but again. outside of the panther fists he threw…there is NO choy lee fut in there at all.
From what I could gather via google, it’s a combination of systems, karate, and others including “Mo Lum Pai” kung-fu. Apparently Mo Lum Pai is something his teacher created after studying Preying Mantis, Jow Ga, Bak Mei and CLF.
On a side note… what is it with us Americans that we have to combine different cultures and act like it’s natural!
“8th Duan Molum Pai”… wtf!
I realize the US is a “melting pot” and all that… but surely there’s a better way.
