Gie Huang Kieng Huat (Yixiang Quan Fa) "Yi Xiang's Dog Methods".
This video is from the school of Chen Jinlong. Chen began training under master Yi Xiang at the age of 9 and later went on to study another line of dog boxing under Chen Yijiu as well as learning Calling Crane Boxing from Wu Fuguan.
Chen Jinlong then went on to form the Jiu Xiang school which taught the dog boxing forms and methods of both Yi Xiang and Chen Yijiu.
He also did extensive historical research regarding the origins and history of dog boxing (unfortunately his articles are no longer up, but when he had them online they contained a wealth of historical research and detail unrivalled by anything I have seen elsewhere on the origins of dog boxing.)
As the lineage of Chen Yijiu has become the dominant system of dog boxing in not just Fuzhou but the world in general, he has in the last few years concentrated his efforts on the Yixiang Boxing Society in hopes of preserving the pure teachings of master Yixiang.
Master Yi Xiang was born in Yongtai county in Fuzhou. At a young age he began to study Dishu Quanfa (Ground Skills Dog Method) boxing from a monk of the Guang Yan temple. Later he became known in Fuzhou for his dog boxing skills and passed his art on to a number of skilled disciples including Zheng Zhenguang, Chen Fuluan, Chen Jiangyun, and Chen Jinglong.
The Guang Yan temple is located atop a ledge in a naturally hollowed cliff face in the mountains in Yongtai. A few different martial art lineages claim to have been passed from monks there including dog boxing and luohan systems.
The Yixiang line equally trains uppers, middle, and lower basin skills. It contains 108 core techniques, 36 fundamental drills, and various forms such as 7 stars fall to earth, 3 lions, and 18 rolls.
Additionally it contains Kunbang Gunfa "Binding Staff Methods" Dog Staff fighting methods.
There are at least three styles of Dog Boxing in Fujian*
Of the three schools two of them claim lineage to the Fang Guang Cliff Temple in Yongtai county. According to their oral mythology the style was brought to the temple sometime around the turn of the 19th century by a man with the family name of Fang. The style was then practiced in the temple for a couple generations with the various lines coming from the teachings of monks in the temple.
There are variations in the details of the oral traditions between the two lines but the above basic outline is shared between them.
Among the lines of dog boxing the Yixiang line is often considered to be the purest line of old Dog Boxing. Both the Chen Yijiu and the Zhuang family lines having absorbed techniques from various other styles.
*plus one that is probably extinct now and another style which has dog boxing as a distinct subsystem within it.
Many schools in Fujian and across China have ground boxing methods or dedicated ground boxing forms. "Dog Boxing" is not synonymous with ground fighting in China. It is simply one of the ground boxing styles that are better preserved in some lines and more famous today.

Exactly. They probably were just that to being with! Many Kung Fu techniques are just grappling but people take them for other stuff as forms usually get mangled from generation to generation. Look at what happened to Karate: most of their "block" and weird strikes are just weapon techniques that they made the newcomers do without weapons so they could get them down.

Those aren't kicks. These are all grappling movements. Moat Kung fu is grappling based. Modern Kung fu after influenced by the ccp tried to make it seem like old fighting arts were all striking based. Most of them are grappling based. Like baji for instance. You see a huge difference between modern mainland baji to hui Muslim and Singaporean baji. I'd argue the hui Muslim do it best. In a lot of ways there's a lot of what's practiced the exact same way they train in baji. There are parts of this man's Dao lu that are almost exactly the same in baji but in this style the hips are lower to the ground. I've seen these movements in the baji xioa Jia form, Dan da, and black tiger form. If you want to see baji performed by an old master of the highest level I would suggest master Shen Jia Rui and the various meng cun baji practitioners.

​@@jestfullgremblim8002 you're completely wrong here. Blocks in karate are just thay blocks. But where they differ from other styles is karate always trys to out tough everyone. So when they block instead of seeing as a block it's a strike. If you want to see how those blocking strikes are used in matches I'd suggest Watchung early ryu narushima or kenji midori both of the kyokushin kaikan. They use their blocks while infighting to great advantage. They're both 150 pound men that won open weight karate tournaments with their technique and speed.

After 15 years of Japanese Budo (JuJitsu, Ninpo, Aikedo, Karate) and some Wing Chun to fill in the gaps, I tried a few classes of Dog Boxing and found the floor spinning technique to be a very worthy addition. I didn't like the heavy focus on physical conditioning, not because I didn't enjoy it but because in old age it would render the style irrelevant. It's a great style to practise while young and fit and would love to see it versus BJJ!

Thank you for this. The ground fighting is also similar to some styles of Silat. I remember reading about a sifu advising caution when executing standing throws against opponents in case they be "Dog Boxers". His admonition was they would retain their grip, drag you to the ground with them, and fight you there. I believe this may be in the classic, "Chinese Boxing, Masters and Methods" by the late Robert W Smith. If that is incorrect then my apologies. I read it in the late 70's or early 80's.

Yeah kind of, different lines use different names. But Di Shu Quan "Ground Skills Boxing" is kind of a generic name for ground boxing methods. Dog Boxing schools sometimes use the name Di Shu Quan Fa. But in that case the character for Quan is one meaning "Canine" or "Dog" rather than the one meaning "Fist" or "Boxing". So it would mean "Ground Skill Canine Methods".

@@thecollector6746 ah yes another tedious snob of the four pillars, giving expert advice on a martial art they haven't even practiced in conjunction to their all so celebrated mma constituent. Yes once a good bjj practitioner HAS their upper or lower body, but this art seems to deal with the transition zone between striking and grappling, it gives seemingly unused or overlooked tools in the transition, the transition can often be short lived yes but this art adds highly mobile strikes within that precarious zone which could amplify either an escape from being grappled or a set up, of course in a bjj only context this is mostly useless, but in an mma context I think there is use here, either or people like you are the fedora atheists of martial arts and your dogmatic short sightedness as you attempt to emulate some hard line martial arts influencer crushing the 'useless tma' is just plain dumb. Theres a guy called 'inside fighting' on youtube, he trains BJJ and mauy thai, he has also trained many TMA's that four pillars snobs like to dump on, I suggest you watch his videos to add perspective, or stay in your tower whatever.
