Drunken Monkey

[shaolinchi]

Hey everyone, I was just wondering if anyone knew of any schools in the CT or MA area that teaches Drunken Monkey, or any Monkey style? I have been looking for a while, but can't seem to stumble across anything. There are many many books out there on it, but I don't want to learn from books! Thanks in advance

could'nt find any Kung Fu schools that were all about teaching Monkey.

However, Chuck Merriman teaches in CT. He is a Hachidan in Okinawan Goju ryu Karate-do.
Very Good Instructor!

good luck.

I dont believe I've ever seen a school that only teaches any drunken set, monkey or anything. I think your going to find that learning drunken sets is mostly done by advanced students on a teacher teaching some other style of kung fu.

Aye, drunken forms are usually taught at a highly advanced level in many different kung fu styles. Even if you take pure drunken boxing, you're going to learn basic kung fu long before you start staggering around. Drunken movements require extreme amounts of flexibility, strength, and muscle control.

However, Troy Dunwood of California teaches 8 Immortal Drunken Boxing. do a search for him on google for the website, I dont remember it off-hand. I can't say myself how it is because I've never met him in real life, but you might check it out anyway.

Monkey Kung fu is a high level kung fu form from north china. it is a style on its own, but it is rare to find a teacher. It is called Da Shing pek Gar (other spellings) and contains 5 monkey forms. Wood monkey, stone monkey (not stoned), drunken monkey, lost monkey, and tall monkey. Kou Tze founded the style in the spirit of the monkey. traditionally, the instructor chose one of the monkey styles for their students. which ever one suited the body of the student. at advanced levels, they could learn the other styles, but could only master one. click here for more info.

Goju Ryu Karate is one of 4 major styles of Karate. the characters mean Hard (go) and soft (ju). The techniques tend to be circular in nature. I'm sure you could find lots of info on this site. just search Goju ryu or goju.

cheers.

Why did i know that link was going to lead to Paulie Zink?!?!

That guy is a fake ,he has some actual Hung Gar training ,but chose to exploit people with his stolen Tai Shing Pek Kwar.

Monkey is a hard system to find ,although there are many styles that have monkey forms within them.

[Shogun]

He is a fake. but he has some good general info on his site. guess I should have mentioned that.

 

[WLMantisKid]

Sifu Z is bad for your health.

Well, the info is good because it came from a legit source ,it's just bad that he used that info without permission.:mp5:

[shaolinchi]

haha, thanks again! mind if i ask how you mean a fake? just wondering!

 

[clfsean]

He's a fake by not being a student of Chan Sau Chung & he's the man on Tai Hsing Pek Kwar. Zink came on the scene back in the 80's give or take & nobody "really knew" then for sure.

 

[shaolinchi]

lol, oh for real? thats actually kind of funny. Just looking at the pictures on his website, the faces he makes are histerical...haha

wha??

 

[clfsean]

Yeah that's probably true. As long as he doesn't call it any variation of Tai Shing Pek Kwar since the Chan's are now in Vancouver, he's probably ok. Anything else would probably bring old school problems to his door step that I don't personally think he could handle.
