Ling Po - Continuous Stepping Fist
Ling Po comes from Shaolin and contains elements of the dragon, crane, snake and monkey. This course is part of our 'Retro Series', old school kung fu training that we are bringing back due to popular demand.
Ling Po ("Continuous-Step" or "Continuous-Stepping"), a.k.a. Lien Bu Chuan. Ling-Po is a traditional, basic kung-fu form that traces its beginnings back to the Shaolin Monastery. It is said to contain remnants of a dragon hand form originally belonging to the Cha Fist style, one of the ancient Five Branches of Shaolin once taught in the Shaolin Monastery. The form also features elements of the crane, snake and monkey.
The form is designed to develop precision and hand-and-eye coordination, as well as strengthen the legs and stances, while instructing beginners in practical self-defense concepts. Ling-Po incorporates short- and long-range block-and-counterattack techniques, locks, and takedowns supported by continuous, linking footwork.
It is an important form for students, as it helps to establish a strong foundation for kung-fu.

This course is part of our 'Retro Series'. These are 'Old School' Kung-Fu videos that we published years ago and are now bringing them back due to popular demand.
We've enhanced the footage and added captions to help reinforce the learning experience. However there is only so much that you can do with old video footage. The material and instruction is still valid, but some of the video and audio may not be up to current standards.
Note: We have added new video where needed.
