Kung Fu Rank · Blue Sash, Brown Stripe

Doi Min JeungFighting Cotton Palm

Blue sash, brown stripe highlights Doi Min Jeung, the two-person fighting form also translated as Fighting Cotton Palm. This rank also introduces complex locks 21-30.

About this rank

Doi Min Jeung, often translated as Fighting Cotton Palm or Smooth Palm Two-Man Set, is a traditional two-person partner set in the Ying Jow Pai (Eagle Claw) system. It is a fighting form, not a solo performance: every sequence is trained against a live partner.

At Shadow Fist, the set is taught step by step in class under your instructor's guidance, then reviewed at home with the training video below. Partner work needs a partner, so save the two-person reps for class and use the video to keep your own side sharp. The complex locks continue here with 21-30, also trained with a partner.

  • Rank: Blue Sash, Brown Stripe
  • Program: Eagle Claw Kung Fu
  • Form: Doi Min Jeung (Fighting Cotton Palm)
  • Type: Two-person partner set

What it teaches

Fighting with a partner

Partner fighting and application

A structured two-person drill where offensive and defensive sequences are applied against a live partner, not just performed solo.

Signature clawing techniques

Trains the clawing, grabbing, and hand-manipulation movements the Eagle Claw system is known for.

Close-range combat and flow

The cotton palm, or smooth palm, idea: continuous fluid transitions between blocks, strikes, and evasions instead of rigid, mechanical blocks.
