This page is turning out pretty nice. Do any of you editors practice My Jhong?
Of course! It's a great martial art, very fluid. I'm glad I took it on.

Wow. A few days ago I was trying to quickly find a reference about my jhong for a friend, and found a page elsewhere that looked pretty good. Upon reading it closely, I noticed that there were some strikingly familiar passages.... then I noticed that it said at the bottom of the page that it had been copied from the wikipedia article! I had no idea this page had turned out so good, and it was very strange to discover that parts of the page I was reading for information were actually written by me. J.S.

[edit] Style distinction
I don't think this article makes a big enough point to distinguish between Mizong and Mizong Lohan. It is correct that the latter is a combination of two styles, but Mizong itself is an independent style with a few slight variations and mizong practitioners.
Huo Yuan Chia himself taught and practiced Mizong. Mizong Lohan on the other hand was a product of Ye Yu Ting's lineage.
The Description section describes only this mixture style and not the actual mizong style it originates from.
For what it's worth, I study Mizong Lohan and this is the first I've heard of the couplet and poem. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Litui (talk • contribs) 19:23, 11 April 2007 (UTC).
You are correctly pointed out that Mizong Luohan is from Ye Yu Ting's lineage in the South China Atheletic Association in Hong Kong. Ye was a native of Cangzhou and passed away in 1962. The son of one of his students is still teaching there. They also use Gong Li Quan as an introductory form, and this form was brought into Jin Wu Association by Zhao Lin-He in the 1910's.
Mizong Yi is a form within Mizong. Another more common name in Cangzhou and Tianjin for Mizong is Yan Qing Quan, which at least in the old tradition it is believed that Yan Qing was the founder of this school, Sun Tong simply renovated it. Yan Qing was famous for Xiang Pu (Chinese Sumo) and there are many throwing and swinging techniques in Mizong. Along with Liu He Meng, Yan Qing Meng were the most popular two martial art styles in mid-to-late Qing Dynasty in Tianjin-Fu, modern day Tianjin and Cangzhou regions.
