Wudang Kung Fu - Bagua Zhang 武当八卦掌

Wudang Bagua Zhang - Performed by Xiao Yun 肖云.
Wudang Bagua comes from Dragon Gate master Liu Cheng Xi 刘诚喜
Bagua Zhang (aka eight trigram palm) is based on the changes in Yin and Yang and the interaction among the 5 elements. It's moves are primarily circular, utilizing the palm. Its characteristics are swift, reacting to changes, combining soft and hard, and continuing without pause. Through its basic training, one would develop flexibility, speed and stamina and the strength of lower limbs would be greatly enhanced.

His skill, fluidity, and speed are exceptional. That's as good a Bagua performance as I've seen.

[@DaWeiGongfu]

I’m glad you liked it! He is very graceful. His Taiji and some of his other styles are really impressive too.

[@Bakutalk]

Did you know? Bagua style Kung Fu is the basis for developing the fictional power known as Airbending in the popular show Avatar The Last Airbender -Haru Ren

[@romansasik8734]

Tai chi for airbenders, northern shaolin kung fu for firenation, hung dao for earth kingdom and bagua for southern & northern water tribe.

nice aerobics dance

[@jaytamayo4694]

Nice one. Is it supposed to be that fas or you just made it fastert? Comparing it to Jet Li's move in THE ONE he moved smoothly, elegantly. It looked sooo great even if he was just wearing a police uniform.

[@DaWeiGongfu]

I'm glad you liked it! It's not sped up at all. Xiao Yun (the performer) is very fast.

[@jaytamayo4694]

@@DaWeiGongfu oooh. Thank you! I'm always a fan of Kung Fu. Nothing fasinates me as much as chinese martial-arts! May more continue the culture. This is a legacy passed on should never stop. More power, Kapamilya (Family).

What's the name of this form?

[@denshincantgiveashit6859]

8 trigams kung fu

[@catfood_03_4stray]

Baguazhang. It is a form of the Wudang Dao curriculum. There is an other Daoist Kung Fu style called Baguazhang and this very form includes techniques borrowed from the brother-style, but enriched with original Wudang Dao techniques. There is also a form borrowed by the Baji Quan style in the Wudang curriculum, but in its way it is a unique form with a couple of techniques borrowed by the Baji Quan Kung Fu and also at least two forms borrowed by the Xing Yi Quan Kung Fu.

[@catfood_03_4stray]

@@denshincantgiveashit6859 This is not a Baguazhang form. This is a Wudang Dao form with elements and footwork borrowed by its brother-style Baguazhang ( and it is therefore called Baguazhang ), but some unique Wudang techniques are implanted in it.

[@Jempolzz]

Nice for art 🤩 but guys dont miss understand and dont use it for a real fight , this art was amazing in the way of artistic movement

[@blockmasterscott]

There's actually some take downs in that form. I saw at least two fire man carries.

Da Wei. Is this the same practitioner I filmed 5 years ago & recently posted? kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5qYpHuqprGld6M If so what is is status now,? Instructor, disciple, 16th gen.?

[@DaWeiGongfu]

That's correct. It was great to see him on your video (great videos on your channel by the way!). His name is Xiao Yun - 肖云. He is now a 16th gen disciple and instructor. His English is pretty good, so I think he was teaching the foreign students for a while, but now he is the head coach and main instructor for the "Traditional" students, the Chinese kids that live and train at the school full-time for 5 years. He is really good a Bagua, but I also love his Wuxing Quan and his Baxian jian and Taiji are amazing too.

[@laufmi]

Good to know! I will update my video with that info and give a nod to your channel and its useful & informative vids. 非常谢！

[@DaWeiGongfu]

laufmi that’s great. Did you train at the school 5 years ago?

[@laufmi]

I study with another gongfu brother, Zhong XueChao, mostly in the U.S. I was there on a free day just to pay my respects and observe the performances.

[@DaWeiGongfu]

@@laufmi I'm glad you got to see the performances at the school in Wudang! It's fun doing those on Thursday morning, but a bit nerve wracking! Zhong XueChao is Master Bing, correct? He seems like a great guy.
