getting things going...

[Machine]

I study a southern form of kung fu called black tiger or hak fu pai. I've been studying for over a year now. Have a bit of a background in tai chi and other various forms of kung fu that didn't hold my interest and therefore did not reiceive my commitment. I also train in qi gong and lion dance.

Hey Cthulhu,

The Wah Lum school to which you are refering is actually Wah Lum Tam Tui Northern Mantis. It is a blend of Wah Lum (Hua Lin) Northern Mantis from the Hua Lin Temple, and the Tam Tui (seeking legs) family system.

The school is headed by Grandmaster Chan Poi, who I believe is 64th generation Shaolin, and 6th generation succesor to the WLTT system. If you get a chance you should visit the Temple in Florida sometime.

Here is their website:

My sigung lived and trained in the temple for quite a while, I would love to visit there! It really interests me.
