Southen Mantis syllabus

Studies include the original or “old-guard” formulas marked   as well as the classical two-man formulas, marked  ♠ .
Unmarked forms listed are the military/subset forms maintained to help further reinforce skill development.
Alongside the formulas (Taolo) are many classical drills and exercises (saan sau, chi sau, da sau and heigung) designed for teaching martial IQ, both in partner and solo methods.
Our Southern mantis system also maintains a modest weapons curriculum listed below as the general reference.

Furthermore Juk Lam South Mantis maintains a dedicated Neigung & Heigung (yoga) component.   You will find a summary HERE
