虎嘯驚風雲: Tiger's Roar Conjures the Storm

From ancient times, the tiger is recognized in China and all of Asia as a god, a protector, a good totem against evil, a king! This is shown by the stripes on his forehead, which form the character Wang (王), or King. In Chinese mythology and folklore, the tiger also represents the masculine principle in nature. Throughout Chinese history, the tiger has incited a sense of both awe and admiration: its prowess, its ferocity, its beauty, and the harmony of these opposites. The tiger is full of life and embodies the spirit and drive to achieve, to fight, to live, to be free, unfettered.
In this compilation video, we strive to present the intensity, the ferocity, the power, the grace and symmetry that embody the movements, techniques and fighting style of the Tiger Claw System. The versatility of the tiger’s movement enables the practitioner to transform, change and adapt to various attacks while being able to turn the tables on the opponent. Instead of taking a defensive posture, the Tiger Claw practitioner forces their attack to become the defender, and the tiger takes control. The tiger’s movement is as an explosive being detonated, a fuse being lit and exploding forward with thunderous power, like the storms that shake the mountains to their very core. The Tiger Claw Technique of fighting can manifest itself in all cardinal directions with the ability to adapt and change to all circumstances, which allows great variety of techniques and freedom to apply, long, short, fast, slow, hard and soft, all intertwined as one.
虎嘯驚風雲 This saying, “The tiger’s roar conjures a thunderous storm,” embodies the nature, spirit, attitude and indomitable fighting prowess of the tiger. The tiger is in the eye of the storm; he is the calm, he is the steady, he is the unmovable, the unshakeable. All around him is turbulence, chaos and unrest, but he never waivers. He is truth and freedom.Show more
