Description
This is the second form, Yellow Belt – Sarm Bo Yill Kiel of the Black Mantis Kung Fu system.
Emphasizing the energy in this level is the rocking motion called (sai) .When deliver and used correctly this solid power disrupts an opponent`s position making them unbalanced.
This form lays the foundation for the rest of the Black Mantis Kung Fu system and regular training will familiarize the practitioner with vital elements of the style.”This form translates to Three Times Stepping with Shaking/Rocking Bridge. In this form the students learn to generate energy through their bridge of strength ( legs to body to arms ) using a longer stance. The kiel is the bridge between your hand and your body. As the student steps into the longer stance, energy is generated while maintaining a straight back and striking out. This coordination of rocking the ma forward with the sai and shaking the kiel is what develops the energy of this grade
The concept of `sai` is a keystone of Mantis Kung Fu, a deceptively simple motion, once mastered will transform your kung fu.
