Page 3The Universal Post / Sept. 2011“KUO LIEN YING”Kuo Lien Ying(Excerpted from the upcoming book,Kung Fu Woman, by Marilyn Cooper)Kuo was from pre-revolutionary China, and Inner Mongolia to boot, another world and time when there reallywas such a thing as a Kung Fu Man. He was called a“Flower Monk” alluding to his womanizing and drinking. Many military men of his era, including Chiang KaiShek himself, had similar habits. I never heard that hehad spent any time in a monastery, but his training regime was indeed austere.Much of Sifu’s personal history is well-known. His father was a silk merchant in Inner Mongolia. Kuo hadlearned Tan Tui (a Muslim form called Springing Leg)at the age of twelve, and his internal training began inhis twenties. He established his reputation and provedhis abilities to the world by going from village to village, challenging all comers to fight him.Sifu was hired by merchants to guard their goods frombands of thieves. Just like the scene from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Sifu rode his horse alongside thecamel trains going across the Gobi Desert, his rope darttied under his jacket, ready to fling at bandits with a single pull. Sifu was larger-than-life, or at least larger thanthe life he now led as an elderly instructor, teaching arag-tag bunch of Americans Kung Fu from a Chinatownstorefront.After a year of training in three different Kung Fuschools, I went to Kuo’s Academy exclusively. None ofthe other Masters taught standing meditation, held training at dawn, or lived behind his own Kung Fu school,which was open for training from the pre-dawn darknessuntil ten at night, seven days a week, three-hundred sixty-five days a year.When we exited our cars in the semi-darkness, we weregreeted with his hearty “Tsou Shang!” as his rope-dartcame whizzing out of the mist within an inch of ournoses. If I missed a morning session, I could come inlater and train twice as hard to make up for it. After all,as Sifu told us, “Miss one day, go back one hundred.”Kung Fu was now my world. I felt that I had finallyfound something important that I was meant to do forthe rest of my life.Sifu taught very few forms, although he himself hadlearned many systems, and from the most famed mastersof dynastic China. My training there mostly consisted ofcity block long lines of Tan Tui (Springing Leg form,which is considered foundational training for the rest ofKung Fu) through Portsmouth Square Park in Chinatown,one hour long Horse and Universal Post posture, lots ofone-handed push hands, lots and lots of stretching, andmimicking the elders doing the T'ai Chi form as a cooldown. At night, I dreamed I was flying through space andleaping over rooftops. Sometimes I would kick in mysleep and wake up on the floor.Our academy was a destination point for the guided tourbuses that came through Chinatown. The guide wouldbring folks in and gesture to us, telling the tourists inhushed tones that we were practicing the ancient art ofChinese Kung Fu with Master Kuo Lien Ying. The oddassortment of students, standing motionless along themirrors meditating, while others did their forms in thecenter of the floor must have been incomprehensible tothe general public, but to me it was home-base.The studio and itsmembers were certainly conspicuous.Sifu wore his longrobes over his streetclothes and a sort ofChinese yarmulke.Many of the moreserious studentsshaved their headslike him. We frequented the banquethalls of Chinatownrestaurants, wheneverSifu would summonus to dinner. Kung Fustudents are alwayshungry.Sometimes Chinesedignitaries from Taiwan would visit and Sifu would bring us all to a banquet,where he join in toasts, throwing down little cups ofwarm sake with the meal. Afterwards the tipsy studentswould stagger back to the studio, following Sifu throughthe streets of Chinatown. There he would beat a rousing,repetitive rhythm on the giant red Chinese drum andmake us do forms, bellies swollen from food and half ofus drunk or exhausted.The other Chinese people there regarded him with a mixture of awe and curiosity -- the old master from a bygoneera, whose Chinese dialect was so obscure that theycouldn’t understand him much better than we could.(Continued on page 5)

In the next issue, I will show the transition to switch sides. Bothpractitioners get a chance to do the techniques without stopping, plus depending on the transition done, can reverse(mirror image) sides. This drill has been put on this year’s conference schedule. Look forward to seeing you there.Technique #9When partner (Tom Dolcelli)tries to fold his arm and pulldown from Technique #8c(below & in last newsletter),Sifu Tom Carney maintains pressure on shoulder with left arm,#9(From Last Issue)#8cand grabs his partner’s wrist withhis right arm. Pressure is maintained on the shoulder blade, andthe partner’s wrist is pulled acrosshis back. Be careful, this techniquecan cause injury if forced. Thistechnique is very effective and similar to Technique #5.Technique #10When partner tries stand up, Sifu Tom releases thearm and swings his right arm around to a choke usingthe bone of his forearm to press partner’s neckagainst the side of his rib cage. Sifu Tom arches hisback slightly to increase pressure. Do not try to reachall the way around apponent’s neck, it’s not necessary.Use caution and do not hold to long or your opponentwill pass out.#10a#10b

Page 5The Universal Post / Sept. 2011“KUO LIEN YING” (CONT.)(Continued from page 3)When confusion arose with local shopkeepers, he wouldjust yell louder, as if they were at fault for not understanding him.One day, a man from L.A. came to the studio with amovie script for us to read. It took place in the old WildWest, when the Chinese were imported to work on therailroad. The main character was a half-Chinese Shaolinmonk.Sifu had a one-hundred day chin-to-toe stretch exercisefor the hamstring. This was easy for a seventeen year old Warner Brothers sent plane tickets for Sifu and his twogirl who had been exercising like mad already. I got my top students to come to Hollywood.chin to my toe in three days, no problem.Even in the airport, Sifu took command. He strode up,The reward for this feat was learning another form.

He stood alongside his desk,profile of a prominent hard-on protruding from his baggy freshly shaved head shining, and told us he really wantedgrey sweat pants while he did his hip circles. We would us, especially Sifu, to be in his show. Sifu responded tostand far enough away so he couldn’t hear us giggle, and the translator’s Mandarin with just one short statement,glance sidelong at him as we did our warm-ups together. and since we had been studying Mandarin, we made outthe gist of what he replied: “I will not debase my art bySifu used to check our standing meditation postures asappearing on your lowly television show.” We just lookedwe faced east toward the foggy sunrise. Even the beststudents were subjected to teasing. He would pantomime at each other, rolled our eyes in amazement, and followedsnoring and sleeping while standing next to my training him obediently through the door as he strode out of theoffice.partner Bing -- as if anyone could really sleep in thatposition! Bing was devoted to training there, and Sifuwas a true father-figure for him.I didn’t understand why we went down there in the firstplace. Did he just feel like taking a little trip? What couldbe wrong with finally earning some money after all ourBing’s bald head would exude steam during hard trainyears of hard work at this? Sifu had taught Monkey Kunging, as heat rose off his sweaty brow and met the chillFu in Beijing to the Chinese Opera Co., and even taughtmorning air. Sometimes the first rays of sunlight wouldstream through his personal cloud. This was inspiring for T’ai Chi at the Actors Conservatory Theater in San Franall of us in our struggle to overcome our physical bodies, cisco. Did he feel that commercializing his art would destroy his legacy? Later he even had a role in a Hollywoodmerge with nature, and achieve a higher state of awaremovie himself. Maybe it was the fact that if we took rolesness through the training.as actors in Hollywood, we wouldn't have been able tokeep coming to morning practice in Chinatown?In the past half century, Kung Fu has become a stock routine for many action movies, and more style than substance. Hollywood actors are coached and choreographedin Kung Fu for their fight scenes, and a few actually practice it regularly for their own edification. Teaching KungFu today, I often find myself struggling to get young students who are amped up on Bruce Lee and Kung FuPanda to settle down and concentrate on real movements.In such moments, I am often reminded of Sifu headingstraight for the door in Hollywood.We returned to our regime of daily training as if Hollywood had never happened.

Page 6Grandmaster Henry LookThe Universal Post / July 2011Applications of the Guang Ping Yang T’ai ChiGrandmaster Henry Look will teach and share the usage and martial applications, by correlation of the 64 postures. This information illuminating and valuable and help you to understand the purpose of each posture—be it "step back repulse the monkey" or" "stork cools itswings"—and will give you a deeper feeling of the various movements. It is also an excellentlearning tool for those who have difficulty remembering the form.Master Randy EliaHsing-I Five ElementsIn Hsing-I Chuan, the five basic patterns are related to the Five Elements, phases of Chinesephilosophy and medicine. However, they are also five devastating moving martial arts postures in which Yi "the mind" creates a will of motion—"intention"—directing the body without any distraction, and delivering a true potential energy or "jing." It is believed that themovements of each of these five postures benefits the health of the internal organ.Master Jiang JianyeWuji 8-Section BrocadeWuji is a state of nothingness/emptiness, the beginning of the beginning. In Chinese symbolism, first there was wuji—nothingness, emptiness, from which T’ai Chi evolved completeness, fullness, and balance. You can get endless health benefits.T’ai Chi 9 Circles for Joints and HealthThis stationary T’ai Chi form is very simple but highly effective. It helps keep the jointsflexible, improves blood circulation, and allows Qi to flow more effectively.Sifu Paul TaylorWave Hands Like CloudsDuring this workshop we will investigate and determine the structure and dynamics of'Wave Hands Like Clouds' in the Guang Ping Yang form through a series of pattern drillsand interactive exercises.Jarl Forsman & Steve SekhonPrinciples of T’ai Chi as Metaphors for Right LivingKuo Lien Ying once said, “If you do the form with the right spirit, everything you need toknow will come through naturally.” We will explore the way in which embodying theseprinciples can bring you wisdom, health, a meditative mind, and the highest form of selfdefense: Integration (of the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects).Marilyn CooperFour HandsMarilyn Cooper will offer a workshop on "Four Hands," a moving push hands drill fromYang style that, when practiced with a training partner on a regular basis, will producehighly concentrated, conditioned responses to force. Once proficient, one partner will bemaking larger steps and be on the outside, while the inside partner's circles will be smaller.Sifu Tom CarneyChin Na—10 Point Locking DrillNEWW O A DDERKSDH OPThe drill (shown in The Universal Post newsletter) shows common effectiveChin Na locks that work together, flow from each other, and requires little strength.Ducking DrillA simple drill that teaches martial artists how to duck and evade a punch.

SIFU LAWRENCE RIDDLEWhen I met Larry I could tell by his confidence that he had learned something of value. I was indeed lucky to become his student. Usually thereare one, or two, good reasons for doing a good thing and several poor reasons stacked against it. It is up to us to recognize and appreciate the truevalue of a thing. Each facet of a word or action must be studied. As Master Chiang said "you must be the scientist", "Rocks can be found anywhere, diamond is hard to find." He also said something like this 'youneed three things, good teacher, good student, and good subject.' I myselfam rather old and broken but I was paying attention in class when Larrytaught. So after some years I find the greatest value in the peace and quietthat can can be found in the Universal Post, Chin to Toe, the Guang Pingset, and Dayan Chi Gung. I was able to appreciate a bit of that Zen.Many people skip over the meaning of the first chapter of Sun Tzu's bookThe Art of War. Larry did not miss that lesson. You might say Larry brought us several books of greatvalue. One chapter in the book on the Universal Post is about balance, others cover patience, perseverance,etc. However none of that would be of much value without the chapter on kindness to ourselves and others.Roger ParmeterstampGUANG PINGYANG T’AI CHI ASSOCIATIONc/o Peter Kwok’s Kung Fu Academy268 Kinderkamack RoadEmerson, NJ 07630USA(See Inside for Application)Photo and description taken from:“Tai Chi Chuan in Theory and Practice”By: Kuo Lien YingMovement 15G r e e n D r a g o n D r o p p i n g Wa t e rChin Lung Cheu Hsiu
