Some SPM Clips

Really neat! I liked the touch-control-hit drill and seeing the Wing Chun similarities.

I was thinking the same thing
Yes I would have to agree with Arnisador on that one

You crack me up!
Did you just find them or are they people you train with?
I like the softness, and did enjoy the clips.
Thanks

I was just doing a search on YouTube. There are a few different styles of SPM. I was looking for clips like the Jook Lum I train in. These were the best ones I could find.

I would also like to say the single person form that was in the clip was also demonstrated to me just prior to my beating and I have to say it was very quick and powerful.
One would think I would have had an idea of what was to come after that but I still went ahead and spared anyway.
Again thanks for posting those.... even though they did cause me to hide under the bed in a fetal position for a few hours. :uhyeah:

i have studied and tought jook lum and the videos on you tube are just plain funny. their is no root to these jokers. i studied south mantis for a long time, never have i postured in a way like i have seen on these videos. it is a rooted system with touch control spit theory. i still train but i have not been in my school for political reasons. that is the problem with south mantis it is very political and it is all a "secret" i know more mantis than most and im content with that, now it is time for tai chi. but if you are able to get into one of the few jook lum schools then you have to know about its history and the schools history. dont be taken by greed.

I am well aware of the political issues in SPM but I guess it depends on who you train with as to whether it's a big "secret" or not. I also am trained in the history of Jook Lum and my school is not run by greed. I guess I'm one of the lucky few who have found exemplary Jook Lum instruction.
So tell me, how long did you train Jook Lum and with who?

Depending on the style, the sifu and school of Taiji you are just as likely to end up waist deep in politics and running into "secrets".

And ain't it the truth in any art? Sure has been for me. No 'art' seems to have an exclusive on negative politics. On the othrr hand, I've found good people and instructors in all as well.
Jade Tigress, thanks for posting these.
My So. Kung Fu is San Soo (Jimmy H Woo lineage), very specialized, and concentrated somehwat in SoCal, so hard to make connections on a widespread basis such as MT. Enjoyed watching these techniques greatly (finally got DSL--yeah, I know I'm a dinosaur). Guess I didn't realize SPM had so many similarities to Wing Chun (what little I know of it), which I've always respected as a fighting art.Yes, the more I watch the more true I find this to be!

Also interesting to me, practitioner of Kung Fu San Soo which I'm finding to be fairly obscure in the larger world, that the bows are virtually identical.
So, the So. Kung Fu stylists sometimes can't agree on much, even within our own arts it often seems, but we can agree on the bow. :lol:

here is a solid & more recent representation of spm by welther sifu. i was too harsh in the past toward the videos shared, i think we have all grown since '07, i apologize. dave proves to be nothing but good , he shares a dedication to som dot tradition.
onward and upward.
