Nam Yang Kung Fu Retreat's video: Nam Yang Shaolin Shuang Tow Double Knife Routine

This is the Nam Yang Shuang Tow (double knife) routine demonstrated by the late Chua Tik Phong. Chua Tik Pong was one of the most accomplished students of Nam Yang's founding Master Ang Lian Huat and was very successful in competition. Sorry about the quality of the footage! This is taken form the old VHS video tape of Nam Yang Pugilistic Association’s 30th anniversary demonstration at the Fuchow building in Singapore in 1984. Grandmaster Tan Soh Tin can be seen in a white suit organising the performers. We appreciate that the quality of the footage is poor but this is the earliest footage that we have of Nam Yang’s kung fu so it is of historical significance. In 1984 Nam Yang had received almost no western influence. Not all of the performers at the demonstration were experts. This is a pretty representative example, though, of Hokkien (Minnan) kung fu as practised in Singapore in the late 20th century and as such is of interest.
