Lohan Shiba Shou-Lohan 18 Hands

Old demonstration of Lohan Quan. Ive never seen it before.

Has anybody seen this monk before? Ive tried to researched it a little, but it seems like that no one knows this kind of Lohan Quan or the Monk demonstrating it.

At least it seems like it isnt a Lohan Quan set rather a Lohan Shiba Shou version. But I am not sure of it. After seeing some Lohan Shiba Shou, like from De Jian or Luohan Protect Body set and so on it reminds me really more like that.. But still I am not sure.Its still a little mystery as its clearly shows some Luohan movements and you can also see that he is no Modern Wushu practitioner or doing a Modern Wushu form.

This monk is used to have a full stop after each motion, this is the characteristic of "southern" China kung fu systems. Northerners perform routines in a (more) smooth and continuous timeline. This seems to be a southern variant of Luohan Quan. Even it may be a free sparring based on a variant of Luohan quan.

@shemmati10yt That could be an interesting comment. Thanks. Some suggested that the stopping motion is because he is doing it for the camera.But thanks maybe it will bring some light into it one day..:)

The majority of martial arts from Asia are still kept secret and are only taught to the families of which they originated from...We in North America only know about watered down versions of rudimentary martial arts from over seas.

It looks like shi su xi, an old, now desceased monk who lived in the temple during the cultural revolution

been studying wushu for 18 years and have searched and scoured the globe for this form... looks like he may have compiled it himself I cant find who he is and what version of lohan hands this is? did you or anyone ever find anything close? maybe he made it up? or compiled his favorite movements together?... or maybe this was the original abbot who I heard got kicked out and replaced by the MBA they have now(conspiracy theory anyone :) ) I dont know but I like this form even if only 1/2 is shown?
