Historically, this routine was created by Shaolin monks who sought to synthesize the unique combat traits of five distinct animals—the Rooster, Horse, Tiger, Rabbit, and Dragon—into a comprehensive system of sixteen technical applications. This instructional program is presented by Master Shi Deci, a preeminent authority who serves as the president of the Songshan Shaolin Quan Research Committee in Beijing and a member of the national Shaolin Quan Research Association. Master Shi brings decades of scholarly and practical experience to this presentation, ensuring that the historical heritage and technical purity of the 'Five Animals' lineage are preserved. This DVD offers a rare opportunity to study a routine where 'Wushu emerges from animal observation,' providing a scientific pathway to mastering the art's internal depth and tactical versatility. Master Shi Deci provides a meticulous breakdown of the sixteen specialized methods, including the 'Peck of the Rooster,' the 'Kick of the Horse,' the 'Crouch of the Tiger,' the 'Jump of the Rabbit,' and the 'Twist of the Dragon.' Each Form & Applications is explained with its specific combat application, providing the student with a deep understanding of how these diverse energies are used to neutralize force and deliver decisive counter-attacks. The routine is designed to be practiced as a cohesive whole, ensuring that the practitioner develops a versatile and highly functional skill set for real-world engagement. The generation of Fa-Jin (Explosive Power) in this style is tailored to the specific characteristics of each animal. Master Shi Deci demonstrates how the 'Internal Alchemy' of the system supports the external emission of force, whether it is the sudden snap of the rooster's peck or the heavy power of the tiger's pounce.
