Fukien White Crane, Pai Ho Chuan (Fukien Bak Hok) is sometimes credited as the progenitor of the Southern Hand. Arts such as Southern Preying Mantis, Bak Mei, Southern Dragon, Southern Snake, Wing Chun, Wa Lu, etc share a striking resemblance to Fujian White Crane. Sometimes it is just called Fukien Boxing, since it can be thought of as a class of boxing.

The Fukien White Crane Christopher Casey brought back from Taiwan came from S.Y. Chen, P.C. Hsieh, and the Hong Men Huei.
