Shifu Shi Henglong will be holding a seminar to teach the world famous Shaolin Drunken Fist Form on Saturday 14th November 2009.
Students will obtain a unique introduction to this iconic Shaolin form from an acknowledged master of the style.
Drunken Fist is one of the most representative forms of the Shaolin Temple. It can be used for both combat and maintaining health.
When practicing drunken boxing the proponent appears to be drunk and his movements are random and apparently uncontrolled. He is, however, alert and in total control of his movements. The style blends gong fu movements with a footwork that is designed to confuse and disorientate the opponent. This makes the drunken boxer's attacks and defences highly unpredictable and allows the expert practitioner to surprise and confuse his adversary. Learning this style requires the student to maintain a clear and alert mind while feigning drunkenness and confusion.
Shifu Shi Henglong is a recognised master of this style and has performed it for audiences world-wide.
