白眉派: 虎步: Pak Mei Kung Fu – A Tale of The Tiger Stepping Method

It was a test of skill between a military commander and a civilian contender. The onlookers and eyewitnesses were comprised of a small contingent of cadets at the prestigious Whampoa Military Academy (黃埔軍校), China’s premiere military institute during the 1920s.
In the verbal exchange prior to the confrontation, the self-assured officer proposed to his tall and slender rival, “You have a reputation of having superior hands skills. But, what can you do against a gun?”
The opponent’s response was composed and confident, “Why don’t we see.”
“Good,” said the armed officer, “Since you are unarmed and not near me, I will leave my gun in its holster and will draw it upon your signal to start.”
“You should have your gun out now,” his adversary cautioned.
“Ha! No one is that fast, especially from where you’re at!” mocked the commander, standing approximately ten feet away from his challenger who acknowledged the statement with a simple nod.
The showdown was not only a test of response time and reflexes, but more of a commentary on the practical effectiveness of ancient martial practices against the functional efficiency of the weapons of modern warfare. It was a small reflection of China’s bigger struggle with the means and methods of modernity during the 1920s.
Each combatant’s hands were by his sides. One eagerly waited to draw his revolver; the other focused on the calm of his own breath. The undivided attention of the cadets was broken by a single shout of, “Now!”
The civilian charged fiercely toward the uniformed officer with a crescent-shaped stepping method known as fu bou (虎步). In an instant, it was over. Distracted for a split-second by the elusive and evasive footwork, the officer found his hand trapped atop his holstered gun and the edge of his opponent’s palm-edge flush against his carotid artery.
The future grandmaster, Cheung Lai Chuen, knew that exceptional hand skills needed to be supported by flawless footwork. His expertise was never again questioned at the military academy as he assumed a non-commissioned position to train civilians in tactics from his Pak Mei Kung Fu.

Il restera dans nos mémoires son sourire, sa grande gentillesse, son incroyable érudition de l'histoire des arts martiaux, sa très grande humilité. J'aurais aimé entendre une dernière fois son fameux "C'est exactement ça !". Nous aurons tous un grand plaisir à le revoir dans notre prochaine vie. A bientôt Maître Xuyên.

Nos compagnons nous touchent par leur sensibilité, leur tendresse et leur loyauté. Les chats plus encore car il se dégage d'eux une forme de quiétude que nous devrions prendre en exemple. Ena avril 2011 - juillet 2024.
