武壇八極拳「八極連環拳」Wu Tan Bajiquan “Baji LianHuan Quan”

Wu Tan’s Li Shu-Wen / Liu Yun-Qiao Bajiquan system offers quite a complete and organized training curriculum:
小八極 XiaoBaji - trains one’s Bones(Structure), Tendons, Facia(Qi), and build strength.
大八極 DaBaji - train to express power(FaJin), and Chansi.
六大開 Liu DaKai - trains usage and applications
八極連環拳 Lian Huang Quan - trains linking, essentially, this level is so called the “Baji mix with Pigua” level

Love the Pigua added in with Baji

Dude, I LOVE how you lowered your center of gravity in that form! 👍💪

This video is going to an old master saluting him… will get alot of eyeballs within the WuTan system… need to do things right lol

[@blockmasterscott]

@@wutan_nj Well, I'm, impressed, you did a good job with the subtleties.

This looks great, Sifu! Happy birthday to your uncle

He is one of the few Wu generation disciples of Liu Yun Qiao who still lives.

YES. Great form. Control and power. Thank you for sharing.

[@馮浩勇]

厲害，這個已經和特勤人員打得非常類似了

[@wutan_nj]

過獎了

[@馮浩勇]

想請教老師人在紐約，但八極拳打的如此正宗，當初和誰學的？在當初還沒有網路的時代八極拳除了特勤人員不太外傳，您又怎麼會接觸到呢？

@@馮浩勇 師承劉師爺座下「武」字輩弟子陳長霖老師。八零年代陳師父學成後赴紐約攻讀博士學位，我有幸跟隨老師學習正統劉門武藝。

That's my park! Did we meet before i left NYC?

[@GameleiraNoChao]

Another great reference as I learn this form!

[@DAF21films]

Wow ive recorded you doing this video twice and somehow you have dramatically improved from the first time....we will never catch up to yoh sifu! 😢😢😢

[@wutan_nj]

To be honest, I was a bit surprised myself too... I think it's from teaching Akil, Neil, and Raven in the past 3 months on this.

[@wutan_nj]

or could be your camera work!

[@FusedBomb991]

Do you still do classes in manhattan 🥲?

[@wutan_nj]

Yes in chinatown

[@kisno2kir]

一個小疑問, 八極連環拳獻肘完的下一個動作, 跟大八極獻肘完的挑打頂肘, 乍看很像但兩相比較之下還是有蠻大的差異, 像這種近似但實質上不同的部分, 若有機會的話可否解說說明一下呢? 謝謝!!

[@茹で蛙-j8o]

勁很整。

你的每一步踏腳 或許可以嘗試不要踏出聲

[@wutan_nj]

八極拳踱步要力震湧泉，入地三尺，才有橫抗八極之勁。「用」八極拳時，提籠換步則不出聲。這是演拳，當然是盡量表現特色嘍。 不過這趟連環拳是演練給學生看的，主要是掩飾勁與勁之間陰陽的轉換，所以在踱步上相對的表現陽勁。

[@黃皓誼]

震腳啦

Hi nihao!

[@Минотавр-ю6я]

@@wutan_nj shifu, tell us about the difference in the styles of mencun and your style please.

[@wutan_nj]

@@Минотавр-ю6я long story short, the most significant difference between MengCun Baji and LiShuWen/Liu YunQiao’s WuTan Baji is that, MengCun Baji in my opinion is closer to the original Bajiquan. LiShuWen’s Bajiquan was simplified to enhance its effectiveness, as Li was the undefeated infamous “God of Spear”, his Bajiquan emphasized more in power generation and fajin, and has removed a lot of the Chin-na movements.

[@Минотавр-ю6я]

@@wutan_nj I practice mencun style. My teacher initially trained with masters from China who practiced Tongbei, Pigua and Bajiquan. It would be very interesting if you showed some differences in styles if they exist in your opinion. Or they made some kind of comparison. In your opinion, of course, if possible. Thank you in advance.
