First experience with IMA

Actually Thrax, I was referring to the individual dragon form. Yes, It does have alot of different stances in it, but don't you find it almost always returns to the "kim yern ma"-like dragon stance (feet close together pointing inward, but sideways)... I also find the whole "energy" of that Lung Yin form (open palms, circular/twisting motions/pushes and all that) is very internal - like Ba Gua. I'm fairly certain your dragon form is the same one, so I'm curious as to what your take is on it

I don't know Ng Hang Kuen/Ng Yin Kuen - does sifu Warren teach it in his curriculum
I'm really curious to know if sifus Bun and Kin used to teach it - ie in sifu Warren's days - as I haven't seen it taught in our kwoon in the almost 6 years I've been there


Cheers,

mok

Yeah, the complete dragon form I know does not ever have the Kim Yern Ma. I kid you not. I think things may have changed since Sifu Warren left then. Strange eh!! I'm just quickly going through the form in my head now, but I honestly don't think there is a single Kim Yern Ma in that form. And the form is approximately 65 movements, so who knows.

And Sifu Warren teachs 5 animals/5 elements if that's what you mean. I wasn't exactly sure of the cantonese spelling. But yes, he does teach it. I'm not sure exactly of the curriculum with Sifu's Hong though. They may have changed it.
