APPENDIX:
Hu-gui Tiger Practice Fighting Form
Performance of this practice fighting form (kata) on a regular basis will not only strengthen you physically but will also help you further focus, and then free up your mind and body from fear:

Discipline of the body awakens the strength of the mind and spirit. Strength of the body builds confidence of mind and spirit. (Only, 2007)

Mastering this easy-to-learn kata will also give you hundreds more martial arts techniques that you can easily apply to modern-day bullying and self-defense situations.
For a more advanced analysis of tiger-style kung-fu in general, and of this fighting form in particular, see Haha Lungs Cao Dai Kung-fu (2002) and Lost Fighting Arts of Vietnam (2006).
Standing facing North, your hands at your sides, feet together, bring both hands up from your sides to form a Closed Fists (knuckles forward) X-Block (right hand in front of left). Snapping open your fingers, turn your palms forward to form Twin Tiger-claws. (See .)
Forcefully separating your Twin Tiger-claws, circle your arms widely outward and down until they cross at your navel. As your arms arc out and down, bend slightly at the knee. Retain an upright posture throughout. (See .)
As your Tiger-claws cross at your navel, rise out of your squat and step your right foot out into a right heel stance (East), simultaneously perform a right, face-level decending Tiger-claw strike (East).
Note: A heel stance is identical to back stance, except that weight is on the heel only.

4. Repeat Heel stance/Tiger-claw strike from Movement #3, West.
5. Shifting East into a left back stance, perform a right Palm-up Block. (Inverted version of Illustration 14s Shuo-uke No-Block.)
6. Shifting your weight forward into a right forward stance, perform a right decending Tiger-claw strike followed immediately by a left descending Tiger-claw strike from the same stance. This is a Double Tiger-claw strike in rapid succession.
7. Pull your rear left foot to your leading right legs knee to form a right Crane Stance. Simultaneously perform a right high-level Vertical-fist strike East.
Note: Some fighting cadre replace the Crane Stance at this point with a Cat Stance.

8. Repeat Movements #57, mirror image, West/left.
9. Stepping your left foot behind your right foot, perform a Tiger-squat (North). Simultaneously strike North with a right low-level inverted Tiger-claw strike (targeting groin) while your left hand forms a Palm-outward Tiger-claw guarding your forehead.

10. Pivoting 180 degrees as you rise from your Tiger-squat into a left forward stance (North), strike down with a left descending Elbow strike that collapses into a left descending Tiger-claw strike (North) followed immediately by a right descending Tiger-claw strike (Noth), all in rapid succession.
Note: Your right Tiger-claw strike continues through its exaggerated arc, opening to loudly slap your left thigh. Traditionally, yell a loud kat as you slap.
11. Stepping forward into a right forward stance (North), perform a right high-level Back-fist strike followed immediately by a left midlevel Vertical-fist from the same stance.
12. Placing your left foot behind right, perform a Tiger-squat (East). Simultaneously your right arm performs a high-level Rising-block (i.e. left Tiger-claw guards forehead), while your left hand strikes (East) with a low-level left Palm-thrust. (See .)
13. Your left foot steps West into an even HORSE STANCE. Right forearm crosses left to form a low-level X-Block.
14. Repeat Movement #12 West/left, and then repeat Movement #13, stepping back (East) into a Horse Stance. End with low-level right-over-left X-Block.
15. Still in your Horse Stance facing North, raise your X-Block to face-level and snap them open into Tiger-claws. (Identical hand position in Movement #1.)
16. Right knee suddenly drops to floor as you perform an inverted right Tiger-claw strike (North) and your left Tiger-claw guards forehead. (Identical hand position to Movement #9.)

Figure 42 . Iron Broom Sweeping Technique.

a. As your attacker rushes toward you, drop to one knee with both your hands on the ground for balance, your extended leg making a wide half-circle arc on the ground as it glides across the ground heel first to sweep your attackers leg(s) out from under him.
b. Variation: From this balanced-on-knee position you can also reverse the direction of your kicking-sweep to that of a Roundhouse Kick-sweep (see ).
c. Any time your hand touches the ground, fill it.

a. Facing forward (N), your attacker rushes at you from your right side (W) ...
b. Twisting away from your attacker, suddenly place your right hand on the ground (E) ...
c. Counting the momentum created by placing your hand on the ground, swing your left leg up and around (W) in a Reverse Roundhouse Kick (aka Hook Kick), targeting your attackers head or torso.
d. Land with a hand, and follow through the momentum of your Heel Kick by landing and striking with a powerful Hammer-fist or similar descending hand strike.
e. Always fill your hand when your hand touches the ground. Seizing up a small rock will help reinforce your striking hand as you follow through with your Heel Kick.

17. Balanced on your right knee, turn to face South and sweep your left leg outward (South) while simultaneously reverse the positions of your Tiger-claws (left strikes South, right guards forehead). This Leg-Sweep is called the Iron Broom.
