I have herd that the Tiger Crane form of Hung gar Kung fu is its own style is this correct ?
No. It is not it’s own style. It is one of the primary sets in Hung Gar and considered to many the most distinctive which is maybe where the confusion comes from. Some folks even refer to Hung Gar as ‘Tiger-crane’ style. My class shirt has a patch with the characters for tiger and for crane on it.
The set was said to have been created by Wong Feihung and is proabably the most famous set in the style. That is all.

i study a style called Tiger-crane combination which was developed by Hung Ee Kan and his wife Tee Eng Choon (the district of Fukien province where the Tee family lived was ‘Eng Choon’). Hung Ee Kan was a master of the tiger style and his wife a practicioner of the White crane style. They produced a style which combined the best of what each had to offer: the power of the tiger and the the soft, subtle technique of the crane. The tiger-crane combination was kept by the Tee family and was passed down generation to generation.
Hello Cogg,
This sounds like Hung Hei Kwan of Hung Gar lineage. It would be interesting to see a different lineage do the same form, though I think we attribute the actual form to Wong Fei Hung. But he got the techniques from somewhere.
Is there any information on this style? Any websites or anything? Is this style taught openly or just to select persons? Is there any way of seeing any of the forms? Is it at all like Hung Gar?
Thanks and sorry for so many questions

I study Li Jia Kung Fu, and we have a Tiger Crane set that is very similar to the Hung Gar set, but we don’t attribute it to Wong Fei Hong.
Dezhan, yes i am in the UK and i also train with Nam Yang pugilistic association. The association is based in Singapore, but is taught in London.
Tparkerkfo Hung Ee Kaan and Hung Hei Kwan are one and the same person, we attribute our lineage to him and not Wong Fei Hung.
Cant see any reason why i cant post the web address so check out: www.namyang.co.uk
