More on Southern Praying Mantis Kung Fu

Southern Praying Mantis kung fu has no link to the Northern version. The Southern mantis systems as we know today originated in southern china on the East River Delta. SPM is classed as "Hakka Kuen" and has close links with Bak Mei (White Eyebrow) and Lung Ying (Dragon Shape). Each branch has it's own different founders but each system has many similar techniques.
