Fu hu Gong:

Caterpillar: from standing, break fall to forearms; like a jackhammer, alternate between
fists and forearms while advancing and staying on toes

Alligator (or Walk the Dog): from standing, break fall to forearms; hands in vertical fist,
body parallel with ground; weight supported on toes and fists only; keep body at same
level--just a few inches above ground; advance right hand/right foot, left hand/left foot,
and so on; working the rib cage one side at a time

Twisting Snake: rear breakfall with forearms--turn to one side, hands together and down
by lap-pike toes to fingers by lifting hips off of floor (weight is supported on the side of
the shoulder), let hips drop then do a full circle open then closed as the body rotates to
other side; this is like a sidewinder--body twists but direction of travel remains linear

Lying Snake: rock and roll; create space for the shoulder to roll, one at a time, pulling the
back down the floor with the muscles of the ribcage and upper back; feet drag and there
is no pushing or pulling with feet or elbows or hands, all the work is done by pulling

Leaping frog: squat down to prayer position on balls of feet; hands pressed together to
keep the knife edge and the forearms solid for impact;
leap forward and land on knife edge/forearms first, with lower body lagging slightly
behind---impact on shins-instep tucked (top of foot hits and tucks under butt) ; this
visually is like a tiger catching a lamb--upper body followed by lower in a wave; spring
back on toes w/out use of hands (beginners can first place hands down before springing
back onto toes)

Jumping Frog: All 4 limbs contacts at same time; leave the ground and land on the
ground all 4 simultaneouly;
palms-fingers turned into each other to open the scapula and emphasize extra point
between shoulders, feet are wide and weight is centered directly under
sternum/midsection;
load the spring by bending the arms and legs a little, drawing into the ground;
explode vigorously up by pressing all 4 into the ground, most of the power will be issued
by the pelvis

Water Skipper: like the break dancing move; leg out to side to start, it circles
continuously as the hands move around the spinning leg; use fists or fingertips and move
forward with each; I have modified to include all directions and spinning as advancing or
retreating; also much like the "Thomas Flair" gymnastic move

Lizard: 2-person; partner holds ABOVE knees (to stay close to your center); the lizard
sets the pace and the partner follows, stabilizing;
you advance by withdrawing one side of your body--your fist follows with the turn and as
you turn your body back to start position/center, the heavy hand drops the fist into and
through the ground; alternate sides in a walking fashion; like a wheelbarrel except you
are not crawling, your doing a bow and arrow movement

Tiger Stretch/Tiger Pushups: like a divebomber pushup with some modifications; feet
stay flat and wider and works the groin and lower body more; main cat stretch to extend
and flex the entire spine; lead with the eyes

Crane dips: one leg outstretched grab foot with same side hand. Extend other side hand
out to side palm out. Dip down on one leg then raise up. Same as pistol.
