Seven Star Praying Mantis Kung Fu |
|
 |
SEVEN
STAR PRAYING MANTIS kung fu was founded in the 17th century by Wong Long, a Shaolin
student. Master Long developed a new system based on his observations of the praying
mantis. He copied the insect's quick grasping and ripping claw movements, then classified
them into attack and defense patterns.
Noting that the mantis has weak legs, Wong Long built the system's footwork on the agility of the monkey, then completed his new system by importing the best techniques from other styles of his day. |
