Our time with hendrik Santo sifu

Hendrik, I am not a Wing Chun guy, you know that. I am however interested in your information and research into White Crane Gongfu especially the original intention, energy and vehicle for its promotion and teachings.

I would like to start anew with you and would love to read more about your research into the original White Crane and it's concepts.

In brief, I would like to write to you privately via email to further discuss and learn of your discoveries in relation to White Crane Gongfu.

Please remember that I may not have the same information or understanding as you so in plain terms would be most helpful.

I hope you will accept this in the spirit it is offered and that I will hear back from you very soon.

My direct email is:

Thanks Hendrik,

Well what I'd really like to do is start from the start and try to get to understand more about the original vehicle of White Crane Gongfu as taught or espoused by Fang Qiniang:

What form did it take?

What were the driving principles, concepts and or techniques?

What forms did she originally express this by?

How did she express her teachings?

[Hendrik]

You have a big question. I suggest you get a detail translation of a classical book 方七娘白鶴拳十五勢 or fang chi niang white crane 15 momentums and investigate.

[Minghequan]

Where could I get hold of a translated copy?

[Hendrik]

Where could I get hold of a translated copy?

I think you need to get a Chinese copy and get a personal translator who understand classical Chinese to translate to you in details.


In yik kam lineage, we categorize a 5 layers model which I called the yik kam transform to help the modern world people to understand and to experience the content of our classical writing.

Hendrik,

Can you email me whatever written information you have regarding White Crane especially in it's original meaning as I'd love to look into these aspects and get what was inside the founders head.
