Hongquan and Yongchun

Master Peng Nanda studied Hongjia Boxing when he was young. The subtleties of Hongjia Boxing are: vigorous, fierce, vocal, angry and shocking.

Wing Chun Boxing (such as IP Man) is sitting on the abdomen, and its movements are like, for example, the running water is turbid, light and natural, and soft as silk, but unlike Tai Chi, its movements are wide open and close!

However, there is no factional relationship. China Wushu is profound and has a long history. A true master dancer has no faction in his heart. It seems to be quite satisfactory, soft with rigidity, subtle changes by stealth, and pays attention to on-the-spot application. This question is like which is better, just or soft. Needless to say, I think we all understand that it is best to achieve mastery through a comprehensive study and use it flexibly according to our own advantages.

Hongquan evolved from the local boxing in Shaanxi in Yuan and Ming Dynasties, with a history of more than 300 years. It was taught by Hong Men, a secret folk association in the south of Qing Dynasty, under the guise of Shaolin. Hong Men started from the "Golden Mountain" founded by Zheng Chenggong in Taiwan Province. Develop organizations, practice martial arts and publicize the idea of anti-Qing and regaining sight in South China.

Hongquan in the south is famous for its five-style boxing, while Hongquan in the north is famous for its ten-style boxing.

According to "Wing Chun Quan Bai He Quan", Bai He Quan was created by Fang Qiniang, the only daughter of a Shaolin master outside the north gate of Funing House (now Xiapu County) in Fujian Province during the Shunzhi period of Qing Dynasty (1644 ~ 1662).

When Fang Qiniang was weaving in An Baili (Lotus) Temple, she saw a white crane flying between the beams, flapping its wings with its head held high, holding its hair with its beak, stretching its neck for food, and then winding its arms to rest, with a wonderful gesture. Qi Fangniang thought it was very interesting. She just threw the shuttle box in her hand and was evaded by the crane. Hit it with a weft ruler, and the crane will spread its wings and bounce up. The crane spread its wings in the air and rushed to the sky. So after learning about it, Qiniang continued to study, but integrated the various dances of the white crane into Shaolin Boxing. After years of exploration and development, she created a unique boxing method.

After Yongchun and other places, Baihequan has the largest number of people, the widest fans and the greatest influence, which makes Baihequan form a technical system with the characteristics of Yongchun's human geography in theory and practice. Because these people are from Yongchun, this boxing is called "Yongchun White Crane Boxing".
