Description

3 X 6 = 18. The first six represents the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and spirit. The three represents good, bad, and peace. This form is believed to be based on Crane Techniques, which can be seen in the leaning stances, the whipping style of striking and evasive footwork. Many attacks are done at forty-five degree angles, as well as dropping defenses, followed with rising attacks.
