About Tiger Claw Kung Fu / FU JOW PAI

Fu Jow Pai (literally “Tiger Claw System”), originally named “Hark Fu Moon” (Black Tiger Kung Fu System), has its origins in Hoy Hong Temple. The system was modeled after the demeanor and fighting strategy of an attacking tiger. The striking movements are lightning fast, agile and powerful. Techniques unique to Fu-Jow Pai are ripping, tearing, clawing and grasping applications.

“Fu Jow Pai history starts at the Hoy Hong Temple in the Guan Dong, or Canton, Province in southern China during the Ch’ing Dynasty. It was here that a battle amongst two masters in kung fu would take place. One of the masters was Wong Bil Hong. While the two masters engaged each other in a battle to the death, a Shaolin monk watched them. During the fight, both masters were suddenly thrown apart — the monk had interfered with the dueling masters.

All three engaged in battle, however the monk’s superior ability quickly overwhelmed the two masters and made them submit. The monk began to act as a mediator and settled the master’s differences. Then, after much thought, the monk accepted the two as his new disciples in the Hark Fu Moon, Black Tiger, system. Wong Bil Hong began training and remained at the temple until he mastered the system. He later became recognized as the first known successor in Fu Jow Pai history..”
