Hung Gar Kung Fu
Red Dragon School of Martial Arts teaches a Shaolin Five Animal System known
as Hung Gar Kung Fu. It is a close range hard style that contains empty hand
forms, weapon forms, Jung Hay Chi Kung breathing and hand strengthening exercises,
and the lion's dance.
The Hung Gar style uses the movements of animals for self defense and to develop
the body, mind and spirit. These animals include the dragon, tiger, crane,
snake, and leopard. Each animal movement has its own specialized attribute.
As humans we can learn from the attributes of each animal and anyone can
do this. The system is considered by some to be very practical because it uses
eighty to ninety percent hands which mean it is easier to apply especially
in adverse weather.
