Training at the Crane Temple - Masters of Fujian ep9

In the second part of our time with Master Yu Dan Qiu, he took us to the Crane’s Nest Temple which overlooks the city of Fuzhou. It is at this temple where Crying Crane was founded, and where the founder of Goju Ryu Karate came to train. Once White Crane spread from Yong Chun to Fuzhou city, it split into four major schools based on different behaviours of a crane: crying (aka whooping or calling), flying, feeding and sleeping (sometimes replaced with shaking). In this series I team up with Jesse Enkamp aka the Karate Nerd to travel to Fujian province, Southwest China. We are here to explore the arts of Southern Shaolin, particularly the arts of White Crane, Five Ancestors and Luohan.
