Can you find the mistakes (Dragon and Tiger Appear - Shaolin Greeting)?
The trajectory of the hand salute is also wrong from the anti-Qing Shaolin revolutionary point of view...but correct from the Shaolin Wahnam standpoint ..

Thank you Damian Siheng for sharing the video. I now have a clearer understanding of why our Shaolin salute is used as a means of identification by the anti-Qing revolutionaries.
With Shaolin Salute (all kung fu practitioners are family),
Lee Wei Joo
" In a Shaolin greeting the left palm symbolizes a dragon and the close right fist symbolizes a tiger. The dragon and the tiger are the two most frequent of the Shaolin five animals in Southern Shaolin Kungfu.
It is reputed when a Shaolin disciple passed his graduation test as he came out of the Lane of 108 Wooden Dummies at the southern Shaolin Monastery, probably on the Nine-Lotus Mountain, there was a big bronze tripod barring his way. He had to lift the big tripod by embracing it, turn around with the tripod in his arm, then walk out of the Lane of 108 Wooden Dummies. As he did so, the marks of a dragon and a tiger were imprinted on his left arm and right arm. "
The solution videos are usually posted on Sundays. If the mistakes have not been found, I might prolong the answering time for a few days.
Students can join anytime. Instructors should complete on Sundays.
See you on Friday for another round!
Best wishes,
Leo
Dear Leo,
Thanks for the heads up, I believe that knowing when the solution videos are going to be posted will serve as an aim for us to find the mistakes in a timely manner
