This video has been digitally re-mastered from the original archival footage to enhance clarity and resolution. Additional footage from Multiple camera angles utilizing digital slow motion, at both one quarter and half speeds of live movement are portrayed for amazing insights into body mechanics never before seen on an instructional video. Additional voiceover scenes have also been added to the presentation. Together, these techniques are employed for a complete learning experience. This third video features the coiling and rapid strikes of the Sir (Snake) form and the deceptively slow but powerful movements of the Tow (Tortoise/Alligator) form. The practice of Snake develops waist strength and "rubs" the Yin and Yang energies of the body. The practice of Tortise/Alligator develops "rooting" ability and strengthens the bones and ligaments. Exceedingly thorough sequential applications follow each form. Applications from all five levels of Hsing I application (striking, locking, throwing, nerve, and cavity attacks) are featured in depth. These videos are by far the best instructional resources on the Hsing I Twelve Animals available today!

Running time = 30 minutes.
