Wudang sword. Wudang Eight Immortal Sword Form or Wudang Baxian Jian (Eight Immortal Sword) includes 81 postures. This sword form originated from the stances of The Eight Immortals:

1) He Xian-gu (with lotus flowers)
2) Li Tie-guai (with pilgrim's gourd and iron crutch)
3) Cao Gou-Jiu (with castanets)
4) L¨¹ Dong-bin (with fly-wisk and sword)
5) Han Xiang-zi (with a flute)
6) Zhuang-li Quan (with fan and peach of immortality)
7) Lan Cai-he (with basket of flowers)
8) Zhang Guo-lao (with drum)

When done quickly, this form hides the movement of the body with the sword. Baxian Jian is known for its simplicity, its combined force of both hardness & softness and for the imitative stances of Eight Immortals.

    ahh, ok. it's the website of master Bing, he teaches in the US

    i think most schools in wudang teach broadsword, if that's what you're looking for.

    but the "dao" in the website's name is referring to daoism. also known as taoism, or just dao. the wudang daoism.

    ps:sorry, i know your comment was 5 months old ;)

  • @Lynwe i was looking at the address on the bottom. I don't think this school teaches saber techniques except for bagua zhang I think

    what is wudang saber.. ?

  • that's not wudang saber!

  • @xiaolintraditional90 Master Bing's school IS in the US. Only, he's in China now. He'll be back, I guess. Until then, take a look at his site. It's in the video description.
