Small Arrow Fist and Fut San Cross- Doc-Fai Wong Iineage

This is very nearly my favourite Harry Nilsson song.
The dragon and the tiger met in heaven, to revive our Shaolin ways.
Teach your followers righteousness, let each generation uphold and enliven
Choy Lee Fut Code of Conduct:
1. The practitioners of Choy Lee Fut train and practice for the purpose of developing a strong and healthy foundation for their bodies. Therefore the practitioner should keep practicing and never forsake its way.
2. With the high level of skill obtained in kung fu (martial art), a kind, gentle, good and patient heart must also be developed - this is similar to the Buddhist teachings, also one must never use his ( or hers) skill to commit injustice or injury to others, but only for the purpose of defending oneself.
3. Respect and obey all other previous and older Choy Lee Fut practitioners as they are your seniors, this reflects on your politeness and good heart.
4. All fellow classmates are brothers and sisters in Choy Lee Fut and belong to the same generation. Act towards each other in kind , gentle , faithful and reliable way, respecting each other through trust , friendship and honesty. Do not bully the weaker brother or sister in anyway.
5. Brothers in Choy Lee Fut are not allowed to fight with each other. To distinguish a Choy Lee Fut practitioner, the action of the tiger claw is used.
6. Choy Lee Fut practitioners shouldn't drink alcohol in excess and shouldn't eat meat in excess since this can make person disorientated and as a result mind and spirit are becoming unclear, accidents may happen which could damage practitioners body.
7. Choy Lee Fut Students are not allowed to teach other people outside the school as it may attract trouble to them, and others. The exception is if you deem a person to be of pure and gentle heart, then you may teach that person and pass your knowledge on.
8. Never misuse your skill on others believing you are better than they are, as this only causes trouble. Do not fight/bully others to show that you are better than they are.
9. When using kung fu you have learnt , you are to think how to remain humble and not be proud of your success: not placing yourself in front of others. If you misuse your knowledge to gain money, then you are within Choy Lee Fut family a betrayer of our founder's wishes and bringing down the group's name.
10. If you can not abide by these rules then you may leave or if you break them and dispute the rules, the Master may expel you from the school.
"Whenever the Dragon and the Tiger encounter each other, be careful as there is sure to be conflict. The student must be vigil and must revive and propagate the teachings of Shaolin in order that the legacy from Shaolin will survive for the future generations."

Thanks!

Small Arrow Fist is the first form I learned, in lessons, from other people. Fut San Cross is the most recent form I learned, from a video. See if you can spot the difference. No really, I am interested, because people do go on a lot about it not being as good to learn from videos as learning in lessons from a teacher. I certainly do. Edit: it would be best if the people answering this were actual teachers who know what they are talking about. I did have some guy telling me I am so good I don't need lessons, which I'll be honest, annoyed me quite a lot. I still think that I would be better if I were taught in lessons, like most people are allowed. Also it seemed like a bullshit excuse to make me feel better about not being allowed in lessons.

Seems like the guy was blowing smoke up your ass. Not a Choy Li Fu practioner but I do study other martial arts and I can just tell your execution is extremely sloppy which is what you get from only learning from a video and not having an instructor fix what you are doing wrong. Slow it down, don't rush through the movements, all you are doing is flapping you're arms around without intent. Learn to throw a proper punch. Sorry I don't mean this as a negative criticism I see someone with a genuine interest so I'm gonna be straight with you and not sugarcoat it. Do you even know why you are doing these movements?

[@mattiethemongoose3rd]

@@LunaticReason OK so the question I actually asked was, can you tell the difference between the one I was taught in lessons move by move and the one I learned from a video? I don't see you answering that. Also, you know what would really help with my training? Tell that misogynist asshole of a teacher who won't let me in lessons even though he actually owes me lessons to get over himself and teach me properly like he should have in the first place, instead of telling lies about me constantly because he can't handle it when he can't dangle a woman around on a piece of string. I'll do it as fast as I like. I can see other people's videos you know, I can compare what I do to what they do, I know it isn't as bad as you say. I didn't get any notification of this btw, that's why I took so long to reply.

[@mattiethemongoose3rd]

@@LunaticReason And since I was taught some of this in lessons, yes I do know why I am doing these movements. The forms I learned later I didn't always know to start with but when I've practiced them enough times I work it out anyway.

@Im wearing tights that I borrowed from your mum. Did you read the previous comments? Tell Niel Willcot who you think is so fabulous to teach me then. Because you can be sure I will not stop embarrassing him about what a misogynist shitbag he is until he makes some kind of reparation for all the shit he has done to me.
