This poster is demonstrated by Master Siu Yuk Men. The Eight-Sectioned Satin (or Eight Pieces of Brocade) set is now subdivided into many branches. Some of them are even totally different from the original principals, sequences, and movements. There are the “Southern Styles” and the “Northern Styles.” The southern styles are more flexible and simpler in their movements. Therefore it is more suitable for weaker and older people to practice. The northern ones are more violent and more complicated. It is more suitable for younger and stronger people. The Eight-Sectioned Satin set practiced by Sifu Siu Yuk Men belongs to the southern style but has been combined with some of the Taoist chi-kung concepts and techniques.
