Southern Tiger - Series 1: Small Tiger Fist

Southern tiger style boxing is based on the fierceness and ruthlessness of the tiger. It’s motions are direct and powerful. Most people refer to southern tiger style as “Hung Style,” mainly credited to the person bringing it out of the Shaolin Temple, Hung Hei Gun. Tiger style is excellent for strengthening the bones, tendons and joints. It is known for building a strong bridge (the forearm and wrist area) and excellent stances (especially the horse stance). Small Tiger Fist is considered a relatively short form that has a taste of the “Taming the Tiger” and the famous “Tiger Crane” forms with some signature “Tiger Claw” strikes. Great form for beginners to get expose to this powerful style.
