Singh Family Elemental Pyrric: Thundering Storm

This is the ultimate expression of Singh Family Internal Pugilism. This is where the Spirit Guide of the Water Tiger leads us to discover our pre-natal essence, primordial energy and spiritual vitality. The form will evolve as the practitioner evolves. One displays ones power here and ones weakness. Ones reflect one's compassion and dominance. The six harmonies show refinement and the long hours of practicing the eight methods reflect cultivated movements and thinking.

Thunder -- Sudden or explosive energy or the sense that a thing is quickly building in intensity but the strength of the vessel containing the energy is limited will soon release an unimaginable force. This sensation will cause one to be surprised, startled or alarmed and feel Confounded. One who can feel and manipulate this energy will be able to divide, split and confuse its intended point of focus.

When encountering a mobile posture then advance and retreat while attending to one's three fronts and be aware of his Seven Stars. An advanced Kung-fu adept of Waijia or Neijia skill will be able to defend (grapple to uproot) and attack (strike to unstructure) in tandem. More importantly if the opponent has pugilistic skills then he/she can withstand more than a few submission holds and accupoint hits. Hand, foot and knee are middle to long range strikes that will explode after the execution of the roll-back, press and push. The splitting twist and grasping pluck will be followed by the elbow, shoulder and hip strikes which are close range strikes.

The way of the confounding round is most difficult to comprehend as movements that are up, down, following and uniting is infinitely wondrous. The mastering of the Empty and Full Song is necessary to begin an understanding of the unstable circle that transforms to gather and expel energy. Even the linear extension or retraction of any part of the body can become circular through spiraling motion. The greater the intensity and frequency of the spiral then the longer one maintains the power of internal boxing. With this understanding small destroys big, slanting destroys even and shapeless destroys shaped.

Entice the enemy deep within the confounding unstable circular movements of the hand and palm. This is called Hua Chin or the attraction into emptiness of the enemies leading strength if caused to overextend or commit thinking that one is empty or weak when indeed the opposite is true. The spiraling movement of the body can make this happen by slipping off (parrying/guiding without releasing resisting contact) and now one can guide the over-commitment no matter what the force if the timing is correctly executed: One once can move One thousand pounds.




Advancing and retreating the hand and foot advance in tandem. The hand/palm seeks to receive, disperse and expel energy using horizontal and vertical strength of the confounding round theory. Pressing forth strength is divided by striking with the entire body (Wholly Integrated) or striking with a singular part of the body (Local Strength). When one's posture, in this endeavor, is structurally sound (Difficult to find an opening to uproot or unstructure) then unified agility (hand and foot arrive in tandem) makes the spiraling effect very effective on a mental, physical and spiritual level. In fact the opponent will be attacked on these levels.
