I may have murdered the spelling of it, but it translates to 18 Elders. I would be surprised to hear that you dont learn it, as its one that is in most mantis schools in the world I believe.
My Sifu said that while at the temple, Wong Long took the best techniques of his highest skilled "brothers" and put them into one form, thus calling it 18 Elders.

Its a really cool form, with an abundance of applications. I learn a new one everytime I play it almost.

Yeah, the differences in pronounciation never cease to amaze me. Its an awesome form.

No, I'm not from Ft Worth but from Tyler, about 1/12 hours east of Dallas/Ft Worth.
