福建少林拳（转载） Chinese, Training
|
福建少林寺是南派少林拳的正宗发源地，创立于唐代，毁于清朝康熙年间。福建少林寺位于福建福州市福清的东张镇九莲山，现于重建中。福建福州少林拳，广泛流传于福州，长乐，福清，永泰，闽侯，蒲田泉州，厦门等地，并流传广东，浙江，江西等省，并经华侨流传香港，新加坡，澳门，日本，缅甸，泰国，马来西亚，台湾，美国，韩国等国家，地区。
福建福州少林拳继承了北少林拳的精髓，吸收民间和行伍中流传的各种拳法，仿效飞禽走兽，家畜家禽，鱼虾等动物的觅食，飞翔，搏斗，跳跃等动作，又综合吸收《易经》，经络学，气功理论，逐步发展为内外合一，内外兼修的实用性技击性强的南派少林拳法。
福建福州少林拳动作精简迅疾，巧狠并行，刚柔并济，身法敏捷，勇猛刚劲，多短打近攻，套路简捷朴素，富有阳刚之美。
福建福州少林拳以阴阳，五行相生相克，喻手法，身法，讲究精，气，神，意，劲，手，眼，身，法，步的配合，要求劲力节节贯穿，筋，肌富有弹性，每一拳一脚都着眼于实战搏击，福建少林拳头顶项稳，紧臀松裆，含胸拔背，沉肩坠肘，步实身正，搏击交手时虚实兼用，巧狠并施，连防带打，以柔克刚，以刚克柔，不封即缠，不刁即裹，不扣即搂，严密紧凑，快速连贯，拳不空发，手不空回，使对手陷入步步挨打的被动局面.
福建福州少林拳很讲究劲，’劲’可分为’内劲’，’明劲’，’刚劲 ‘，’柔劲‘和’暗劲’（福州方言即短劲，寸进）。’内劲’是意识支配’内气’行至身体某一部位，气经骨缝肌肤，通过肢体屈伸辗转与肌肉收缩而形成，在外形上使人明显见到发力效果谓之’明劲’。
1，暗劲 ；暗劲重意，拳掌在短距离内震颤骤然施劲，触物即刚，神凝气沉，功蕴于内，随意而达，劲力莫测，也叫寸劲，
2。刚劲是由丹田产生气，力随气意在肢体一处爆发产生的力，也叫弹簧劲
3。柔劲是全身骨节，肌肉及内脏器官严密配合，含蓄活跃于体内又能随意集中于一处的一种韧劲，也叫橡胶劲。
福建福州少林拳注重双桥（福州方言，即手腕到肘关节的前手臂叫桥手）”基手”（福州方言也叫”摇基”或”摇桥手”，分为单基手，双基手）训练，不同拳种有不同”基手”锻炼”方法。”基手”练封，缠，刁，扣。搂等福建少林特有的双桥技法。通过”基手”长期锻炼培养出良好的听劲。”懂劲”既桥手的敏锐触觉，感觉到对手力之轻。重，浮，沉，去，留，洞察到对手的意图，及时根据对手的动向与变化，做出准确快捷打击或反击。
福建少林拳原宗拳法，器械，暗器是少林三进拳，少林梅花四十六式和一百零八式梅花拳，三十二式少林八步连环拳，四门刀，棍杖，梅花刀，二月剑，断门枪-飞镖，飞石等暗器。
福建少林拳继承原宗少林拳法而发展了少林五祖拳，少林看店拳，金狮罗汉拳，八宝门硬气功（已传广西，现掌门人莫文丹先生），花锁门（已传广东，现掌门梁光喜先生）象形拳有：虎形拳，鹤拳，豹拳，龙拳，蛇拳，象形的混形拳：咏春拳（蛇鹤双形），金猴鹤拳，虎鹤双形拳，此外，还有南派少林拳特有的血脉点穴法。

五禽戏 Blogging, Chinese
|
五禽戏非一门武功，也不是什么武术技巧。它是由中国汉代名医华佗创编的一种养生健身术，主要模仿五种禽兽－虎、鹿、熊、猿、鹤的神态和动作，以达到舒展筋骨，畅通经脉的功效。
五禽分属于金木水火土五行，又对应于心肝脾肺肾五脏。据中医解说，模仿五禽动作不但能锻炼四肢筋骨，还能间接地加强五脏六腑之功能。而现代医学研究亦证明五禽戏能锻炼和提高神经系统的功能，提高大脑的抑制功能和调节功能。在心肺功能方面则能改善心肌供氧量，提高心脏排血力和促进组织器官的正常发育。同时它还能增强肠胃活动及分泌功能，促进消化吸收。
五禽戏诀云：
“虎戏者，四肢距地，前三掷，却二掷，长引腰，乍脚，仰天，
即返距行，前却各七过也。”“鹿戏者，四肢距地，引项反顾，左三右二，左右伸脚，
伸缩亦三亦二也。”“熊戏者，正仰，以两手抱膝下，举头，左僻地七，右亦七，
蹲地，以手左右托地。”“猿戏者，攀物自悬，伸缩身体，上下一七；以脚拘物自悬，
左右七；手钩却立，按颈，各七。”“鸟戏者，双立手，翘一足，伸两臂，扬眉鼓力，右二七，
坐伸脚，手挽足距各七，缩伸二臂各七也。”
俗语说：“药补不如食补，食补不如动补。”，说明运动是保持身体健康最有效的途径。从虎到鹤这五种禽兽的动作互相配合，各不相同的作用将有效地达到统一的保健，从而强身健体，祛病长生。

Tiger Blogging, Training
|
The tiger (Panthera tigris) is a mammal of the Felidae family, the largest of four “big cats” in the Panthera genus. The tiger is an apex predator and highly adaptable ranging from the Siberian taiga to grasslands to mangrove swamps.
In the culture of many Asian countries, the tiger is the symbol of beauty, bravery and power. In some Chinese martial arts, particularly southern Shaolin tiger boxing style or Kosonken mimics the movement of the tiger. The Kosonken techniques are as direct, short and powerful like the tiger. The techniques include grappling, pressing, pulling, tearing and striking. These techniques are applied directly to vital points on the body and as well as the limbs.
Kosonken applies short explosive energy in the techniques. The short explosive energy helps to conserve energy with effective motion economy. The adversary has no hints and unaware of the sudden shock of application of energy creating surprises and leaving the adversary more vulnerable.

Wa-uke Training
|
Wa-uke or circular block is the most versatile and most frequently used in Uechiryu karatedo. It is one of the secret techniques in Uechiryu. Simple by the look but it takes months or years to learn the correct method and to understand its concepts and applications. My previous research incorporated concepts from Taijiquan and Aikido into wa-uke. The keys of understanding and realization of wa-uke are change of momentum during different stages of maneuver, timing, contact points, triangulation and changing of stance. By applying the different concepts, wa-uke is not only a block but also grappling, throwing and taking down. Wa-uke is effective for mid- and close- quarter contact (CQC) fightings.
Repetitive practice of wa-uke together with the understanding of its fundamental concepts and applications, a simple technique becomes a secret technique. Complemented by the understanding of the concepts from Kosonken (tiger style boxing), this secret technique becomes more devastating and deadlier.
My research continues to unlock more secrets of Uechiryu and Kosonken as the time goes by. At the mean time, while waiting for more new exciting discoveries, let us practice this simple and yet secret technique.

迈向新旅程 Chinese, News, Training
|
过去几个星期里，我们忙于开拓新的方向和崭新的面貌。我们现名为馬来西亞上地流-虎尊拳研究会。我们已成为一个独立的团体，专于研究，学习和锻炼冲绳上地流空手道和中国南派少林虎尊拳。
我们的上地流空手道练习除了根据古派上地流同时也混合其它新派上地流。考试需求和练习皆以古派上地流为主。
虎乃上地流空手道中三大动物之一。我们形成一小组专注于研究和学习虎尊拳。虎尊拳里的虎形技巧和上地流空手道的甚相似，并且在补足多方面的技巧如“虎爪”，身体调理和强化。大体上虎形打法属短打近攻，动作讲求精简迅疾。当中有扯、撕、扭、压等手法。
我们特地挑选农历正月初二（二OO八年二月八日，20080208）来宣布这消息，意味着新旅程的开始。首个练习将于二月十一日开始。往后我们将在各学习阶段掺插一些新的虎形技巧。在此恭祝各位春节快乐。假期愉快和开心练习。

A New Direction News, Training
|
As for the past weeks, we were charting a new course and a new face lift. We are now called The Malaysia Uechiryū and Kosonken Kenkyūkai (馬来西亞上地流-虎尊拳研究会). We are (become) an independent body focusing in researching , studying and training of various Uechiryū and the Chinese Tiger Style boxing (虎尊拳).
Our Uechiryū training is based on old-style Uechiryū. A blend of modern styles Uechiryū will also be incorporated into our training but the old style training remains as our main focus and grading requirement.
Tiger is one of the three major animals in Uechiryū. We form a small team dedicated in researching, studying and training of Chinese Tiger Style boxing. The tiger techniques in the Chinese Tiger style have many similarities but make a good complement in various areas such as tiger claw striking, body conditioning and strengthening. Generally the strike is short and direct. There are pulls, tears, twists or presses upon contact with the adversary.
This announcement is made coinciding with the 2nd day of Chinese New Year (February 8, 2008 or 20080208) to signify the beginning of a new direction. Our first training will begin on February 11. We will incorporate more new tiger techniques along the way in stages. We wish you a Happy Chinese New Year. Enjoy your holiday and happy training.
