Chuo Jiao (4of4)

Chuo Jiao, the style of the Penetrating Foot, is an ancient style with roots in Wen Family Boxing. This was mentioned in General Qi Jiguang's book as one of the most effective systems of his times. The most popular Chuojiao is the branch merged with fanzi (Chuojiao Fanzi) coming from Li Country in Hebei. However, in recent months an old branch of the system (according to its practitioners) came into light. It is called Gu Zhizi (Ancient Zhizi- Ancient Chuojiao) and was passed to the Yin family in Suning County which kept it for centuries. The style shares theory very similar to Xinyi/Xingyi. Li Fuzhen, famous disciple of Che Yizhai, was so impressed by the system that he incorporated its elements into Che Style Xingyiquan and created Mandarin Ducks Kicks routine. This is apparently the first video material about this rare branch ever made public.

A fascinating insight into a rarely seen way of martial arts training - we need more films of this quality on the tube. These people have let us come into their circle and allowed us to see the true "nitty-gritty" of their art. Their candour is to be applauded. Thank you for sharing DPGDPG!

If chi flows through the body normally,time stands still and one does get "old" (whatever that means). Once a person reaches full maturity (25 - 30 years of age for a man)provided his chi flows and he avoids most of the poisons of this world he will not age anymore!

Best to keep one hand up to guard the face while executing the shin-kick. Fighters in Philadelophia generally aim for their opponent's head.
