Fifty Sequences of Eagle Claw Kungfu - Part 5

Many people would have heard of the kungfu saying “nam khuen pak theui” (“nan quan bei tui” in Mandarin), which means that Southern Shaolin Kungfu is noted for its fists, whereas Northern Shaolin Kungfu is famous for its kicks.

This saying, however, is only a general description to compare the strong points between Northern and Southern Shaolin Kungfu. We must not be limited by the saying to think that hand techniques are not important in Northern Shaolin or kicks are not important in Southern Shaolin. Indeed, Southern Shaolin is famous for is No-Shadow Kicks. And Northern Shaolin, as represented her by Eagle Claw Kungfu, is famous for its hand techniques.
