Tiger Claw kung fu is an offshoot from the Tiger style which was originally part of the Shaolin five animals. Like Shaolin
Tiger style, and like the Tiger itself, this style is powerful and aggressive. A great emphaisis is placed on developing the
'killer instinct' of the Tiger - a practitioner of this style does not attack unless it is to end the fight, going straight
in for the kill and attacking soft targets such as the throut or pressure points. This is a powerful and 'muscular' style
which seeks to end a confrontation in the minimum time. Compared to the more general Tiger Style the Tiger Claw style involves
more grabbing and grappling, pressure point attacks, and clawing strikes to vital areas of the body.
