Hello i'm new to this board. The form performed here is the lung ying moi kui, a dragon form. Who is the person performing this form is this sifu Lee? He must be from Foshan because My Sigung Mai Yu Qiang Luo is from there and he is a Dragon and Bak Mei master.

The Fushan Bak Mei system traces its origin to Fung Fou Dao Yan (Wind Fire Daoist). Since his real name is not known and neither who he was in his layman life, it's not known if there is a connection with Cheung Lei Chuen, commonly known among Bak Mei practitioners who trace their lineage back to Hong Kong. Research is a difficult task, since even the background and curriculum of Cheung Lei Chuen's 18 schools in Southern China (prior to the Communist takeover) varies, and there even exist branches in Vietnam. However, it is known that Fung Fou Dao Yan handed down the system to his disciple in Fushan named Lau Siu Leung. Lau Siu Leung was a very selective teacher and only passed down his Bak Mei to people of good moral character. One of his selected disciples was Lee Yung Gien in Fushan, who passed on the art to Eddie Chong.

Yes Lau Siu Leung I know that name and I also branch off from his lineage. My question still stands who is the man performing the dragon form? Is he performing this form in Foshan? Don't really care about Hong Kong Bak Mei because it is somewhat different.
Sifu Eddie Chong may be endorsed to teach Bak Mei and I do not doubt his abilities; but you should however check out Sifu Luo in San Francisco. Bak Mei and Lung Ying compliment each others style which is taught in SF. Does Sifu Eddie Chong teach Dragon as well?
I remember reading an article ( I forget if it was in a magazine or online) about Sifu Chong and he was quoted for saying that Gau Boy Toy is the highest form in the Bak Mei system and that he only teaches it to select students is this true at your studio?

That link is not working for me, but I think I know which one it is. If so, that would be a dargon form and I think it's in Hong Kong. The clip was titled incorrectly.
