HISTORY AND PHILOSOPHY OF
ABRIDGED SAN FENG WUDANG SET
Grandmaster Wong demonstrated the Abridged San Feng Wudang Set
The Abridged San Feng Wudang Set is an abridged version of San Feng Wudang Set, which in turn is an abridged version of Wudang Taijiquan. When Tim (Sifu Tim Franklin) and Barry (Sifu Barry Smale) asked me to teach a course on Cultivating Spirit Nourishing Energy in December 2018, they asked me to further condence the San Feng Wudang Set.
The abridged set was taught by them at various places. The course was a great success, with such skills as attaining a one-pointed mind, Toe Breathing, Five-Dan-Tian Breathing, and various methods to train internal force.
It is pertinent to mention that Zhang San Feng himself was like a dragon. His Abridged San Feng Wudang Set must be dragonlike, with emphasis on training of "shen" or spirit. The movements are majestic and surving. The whole set should be performed flowingly in a relaxed manner without thoughts, which actually means all-mind or Universal Spirit.
