Technical Aspects
Chum Kiu consists of a variety of techniques and movements designed to bridge the gap to an opponent, hence the name, Bridge Seeking Form. Chum Kiu also builds upon arm and leg movements learnt in Siu Nim Tao to create a coherent fighting system. This system is further expanded in the Biu Tze and Mook Yun Jong forms. Chum Kiu also teaches advancing footwork, complex hand shapes and body turns.
