Good luck finding your answer. You're best off doing a google search because there are over 400 different styles of Kung Fu.
Pretty much all Kung Fu styles will have animals too, so that doesn't limit the search at all.
P.S. I've never heard of it....but that doesn't say much at all

Could it be the TaiTsu style?
It is an internal style, once met a chinese woman from hong kong who knew it... she said it is one of the styles Tai Chi comes from....
The only thing that I could find out for you is that it means, "Shadow Long Fist". Apparently it was practiced in the a Shaolin Temple and is associated with an Emperor of China putting down a rebellion. Ask your instuctor about the history and any animal forms. Some Kung Fu systems do not use animal forms and even sneer at animal "mimikry", which is an unfair criticism.
I personally enjoy animal forms. They have a lot to teach me about martial arts and solving problems in a non-martial arts context. I'm all for a "nuke em first and negotiate later" approach if that is what the situation calls for. This is very much of a tiger approach. Some situations might require the cunning and quickness of the leopard, the deception of the dragon, or the less than lethal approach of the crane.
This goes beyond what you asked, so learn how to "kick ass" in your chosen style, but also learn how to use the attributes of the animals and apply them to other life situations.
there are always left shadows on the earth when every creatures move themselves under the sky. But I just a mirror which can catch everything and can get hold of nothing at last.
I have a shame on these boys using dirty words. compared to Chinese forums, You "dirty words" men are called" under-qualified" and will be kicked out.
Let us discuss Martial Arts in a pleasing and comfortable atmosphere.Thanks a lot.

Sorry, you're right. We should not be using such language. However, the liberal side of me says "to each his own". Plus, we're American's. Bad words and violence are OK, just no nudity LOL. I really do not mean to offend you, but I'm gonna have to burst your bubble. Unfortunately, you'll see that kind of stuff a lot around here.
A person who is said to be proficient in the arts is like a fool. Because of his foolishness in concerning himself with just one thing, he thinks of nothing else and thus becomes proficient. - Hagarkure

Maybe you should just ask your Sifu for the history of the style, that would be the best source. If they don't know.......leave and find another kwoon.
