Bagua Linked Palms: Wang Shu Jin

Description

This DVD teaches the Zhang style of the Chinese martial art known as Bagua Zhang. It is a perfect companion to Kent Howard and Chen Xiao-Yen's translation of Wang Shu Jin's Bagua text. This follows the book step-by-step and adds a lot of practice tips and self defense applications.Wang Shu Jin was inordinately influential and his many students in Taiwan and Japan have spread throughout the world. Howard is clear and forthright in his teaching. His demonstration is true to his subject. The set itself is deceptively simple giving the true "old style" Bagua in which the different palms could easily be intertwined and recombined. Wang Shu Jin was a student of Zhang Zhao Dong so we have a rare example of the Zhang style Bagua.
