As much as I loathe to use it, Wikipedia does have a pretty ok description:

the posture and dynamic power of Luohan (羅漢拳)[SUP][2][/SUP]
the precision and efficient movement of Emperor Taizu (太祖拳)[SUP][3][/SUP]
the hand techniques and the complementary softness and hardness of Fujian White Crane (白鶴拳)[SUP][4][/SUP]
the agility and footwork of Monkey (猴拳)[SUP][5][/SUP]
