White Crane kung fu


According to various sources, White Crane (Bai-Ho) originated in Fujian Province in South-East China, possibly during the eighteenth century. The Fujian White Crane is not the same as various other styles also called White Crane e.g. Tibetan White Crane or the crane forms appearing in Hung-Gar style and certain Northern forms.  About 300 years ago, so the story goes, a girl attempted to drive away a large white crane from her garden. Using a stick, she poked at it but the bird easily evaded her and then turned into an old man who then taught her a form of kungfu which she called White Crane style.
