Vad betyder namnet?
Bridge searching (meaning the forearm or lower part of the leg).

Vad är formens genomgående koncept?
The idea behind Chum Kiu is to learn Yiu Ma Lik - waist power (that is what the turning is for) and also to learn the concept of yiu ma hap yat - cooperation of the hands and feets through the waist.

Chum Kiu is what is known as a power form and the movements are strong (powerful).

Vad är det viktigaste att lära sig från formen?
1) Chum Kiu teaches you how to fight multiple opponents. All the turning from side to side and walking teaches you to be mobile and being able to adapt to a multiple person scenario.

2) Stances, Chum kiu focuses on different stances, jyun ma (turning stance), hao ma (back stance, 2 variations: 1) weight 70/30 normal stance 2) 90/10 for kicking), jeen ma (arrow walking).

3) The first part of the form teaches you how to connect to your opponent and the rest of the form teaches you different ways of destroying the opponents 'bridge'.


Hur relaterar den till center-principerna?
It uses the same principals as Siu Nim Tao but incorporates different footwork.
