In this video, Sifu Pete K. Wong and Sifu Master Wally Cornett engage in a freestyle sticky hands (Chi Sau) session—a spontaneous and fluid exchange where nothing is pre-planned. Both Sifus apply their trained styles and techniques, demonstrating sensitivity, reflexes, control, and energy flow in real time.

Som Bo Gin (三步箭), or "Three-Step Arrow," is the most important form in Southern Praying Mantis Kung Fu. It is the Alpha and Omega of the style—the beginning and the end—serving as the foundation for all techniques and concepts within the system.
