Anyone knows the lineage of Yao Kam Fat?
I would like to practice his chow gar mantis.
Dear Alonso,
There is no “Chow Gar” in China. Chow Gar is only Yip Sui’s version of his teacher’s CHU GAR. Yip Sui was a 2nd Generation disciple of Lao Sui.
However, the late Yao Kam Fat was a China Kwongsai Mantis Sifu not a Chu Gar Mantis Man. Yao Sifu passed at age 93, some years ago now.
Yao Sifu’s story and teaching is featured in the book CHINA SOUTHERN MANTIS SURVEY:
