(Southern accents can do strange things to some words) I am not sure if this is the same system as Ngo Cho Kun, so I will copy some of the material he has in his student hand out. "Shaolin Ngor Chor (Five Ancestors ) is a system of traditional chinese Martial Arts.:" "Ngor Chor is an art having an infusion of five great systems, each system is based on it's distinct specialty." 1. The fingers and hand techniques of Peh Hoke (white crane) 2. The foot work techniques of Soo Heng Che (monkey) 3. The dynamic body techniques of Luohan (the immortal) 4. The precision techniques of Tai Chor (Chao K'ang Yin) 5. The breathing and development of "Chi" of Tat Choon (Boddhidharma) Four Essential Basic principles: 1. Toon Absorb. to assimilate an incoming force by receiving it. 2. Pu Float. The lifting or unbalancing of the opponent by shifting his/her center of gravity. 3. Tim Sink To restraint or immobilize the opponent's movements and techniques by application of heavy hand techniques 4. Tor Release The ejection of concentrated force for striking the opponent. John also gives a history of tracing his style back to Baik Yu-Feng. The history he gives is too long to recount here. Needless to say he there are many similarities between systems with little or no written documentation that connects them. Maybe with this you can tell if the styles of the Five Ancestors (Ngo Cho Kun) is the same as Ngor Chor (Five Ancestors) He a Gary Hudgins ------------------------------ From: Ray Terry Date: Sun, 3 Oct 1999 06:25:16 -0700 (PDT) Subject: eskrima: . ------------------------------ End of Inayan_Eskrima/FMA-Digest V6 #411 **************************************** To unsubscribe from this digest, eskrima-digest, send the command: unsubscribe eskrima-digest -or- unsubscribe eskrima-digest your.old@address in the BODY of an email (top line, left justified) addressed to majordomo@hpwsrt.cup.hp.com.
