  • Fights are between two unskilled fighters. True combat is between two masters, and ends as fast as it begins.

  • can yall stop talking like yall know fighting because yall dont if a 85 year old kung fu master came yall do yall theorys then you will still get your ass kicked so yea thats the truth srry to say and that goes for any style

  • Nice video....Thanks for the posting..

    I really love this arts.....

  • this is so hard wow

  • I really like the 7th kick!

  • ba gua about creating opportunity?sry man i dont think opportunity can be created..more like finding an opportunity..if u want to create and opportunity..a real fight will be messy..with trying to create an opportunity..find an opporunity..and execute it..i agree with the rest what u said though irontoad

  • creating and understanding change is the fundamental principle of the 8 trigrams, which is where the principles of bagua zhang came from. Taiji is more about taking the opportunity given, bagua does create opportunity. That's why you step, it creates change.

  • ahahah really? i guess thats the difference in studying and doing a martial art

  • It does help to understand what you practice.

  • sadly i'm not able to practice it

  • Obviously you haven't experienced a real bagua fighters ability.

  • obviously u're not a reader arent u..read the post..i'm not a fighter...i study martials arts...i dont fight

  • @blearghp - You can never understand the arts from merely watching. There are things that are going on inside, that are not apparent... as well as situational stuff. Martial arts is a lot more complex than something like tennis... and Chinese arts are about 10x more complex than just about any other artform. Sorry that you are not able to practice.. but do not claim to understand what you have very little information about.

  • @xiaou2 actually u can understand all arts from merely watching or reading. its the practice that makes the difference. understanding comes from someone who is able to study it for years. i dont know if u practice the form of arts or what but a mere person who just study the forms of art possesses more in depth knowledge than those who practice. where do think the arts u study originates from if u study it. and never assume that someone understand something. i never claim i do.

  • @blearghp - You can only understand Some of it. You do not know if you understand it all, because there is a lot of hidden things that you dont even See happening. The arts were not created by mere theorists who watched. They were created by actual physical testing. & from those test, formed new theories, which were also battle tested. I study many forms of arts, but I mainly practice 1. I used to think I knew it all & found after practice, I knew almost nothing. So, I speak from experience.

  • @blearghp - My practice in a real art took my understanding of all the arts to a completely new level. We are talking baby level to college level. There are so many things that you would think are one way... and turn out to be completely different, after you actually have learned the truth from practice. Now that I have a 'Foundation' in arts like this one, I can understand what they are doing 1000x better & more accurately than someone who never took a chinese art before.

  • @blearghp - actually, a real fight does not have to be messy. That happens often

    when the fighters are not very skilled, and do not stay dedicated to their training.

    Offensive opportunities can be created... just as defensive opportunities can also be created. Its no wonder you do not understand, because the skills and training involved in these things are very high level.

  • Although not as good as the younger experts, still hip for an old man, I was having heart attack just immitating it while I'm 22

  • Thanks for uploading. I used to think that Baguazhang didn't have any kicks until I read up one of Bruce E. Frantzis' books recently.

  • The kicks are "hidden" within the from. every step and pause and change can create the opertunity for kicking

    Bagua is all about creating an opertunity,

    or recovering from a manouver
