  • @TheSubwaysurfer in bagua you don't turn for the sake of turning. seasoned fighters know not to commit fully so they can change if things don't go their way but the whole concept of bagua is change and motion. Think of the spinning top. everything it hits gets bounced of or redirected. the turning is done as a means of escape or redirectig. even if you get hit the continuous motion is supposed to keep you from taking full brunt of the force.

  • Very nice. I enjoyed that.

  • He's not "giving his back" he's in motion. The pause you see is for our viewing pleasure so we cab see the technique. He's moving his center like a rotating top, taking the opponent for a ride then dropping him off before he can adjust.

  • Novices approach things with an empty cup mindset, novices also have experience with other movement disciplines like sports , or even dance, novices are nit dopey 98 pound uncoordinated weaklings.

  • I disagree about the movies being able to pick this up. It depends on the teacher. This s about technique timing and sensitivity, al, of which can be taught. So stints a novice learns even quicker because he's not so busy trying to show his instructor ho what he's being taught relates to his art too...

  • Good techniques but novices must practice hard or turning one's back foolishly to a seasoned opponent will be a mistake. The kick escapes are very cool.

  • that is great I like the armlock escapes good aplication of yielding slightly, yin and yang at its finest

  • nice

    

  • @ironfist321 Song is "Pagoda Zen" by Stefano Bonacina. Found using Shazam for Iphone.

  • @WDTripps Certainly not for the novise! Spinning is usually applied at touch, in which case the maneuvre should always leave the opponent in a weaker position than yourself. Turning your back to an opponent who is balanced and correctly angled is obviously suicide. Against several opponents some of them may be able to sneak around to your back, but you should never actively seek that position! If however they jump you from all sides, it's sometimes a good idea to spin them off, or spin out of it
