wu dang and wu tang? its the same thing, they just have different spelling. i'm from traditional shaolin lineage, shaolin and wutang never had any rivalry, thats all fiction. but in the past shaolin understood the power of wutang's internal skill and redeveloped the shaolin system to be more fluid and internal like wutang

Extarnal styles, like Shaolin process from the hard to the soft. Internal styles like Wudang process from the soft to the hard. The pathes are different, but their final purpose is the same. You should learn a bit more.

@kenadra13 This is a Wudang variant of Lao BaGuaZhang, I've learned it.

[kenadra13]

@AndyRaslan Well, actually that was a really old comment of me:) But for example if you take a look at 0:48 - 50, it's a movement that you can find in some bagua styles too (perhaphs not in the Lao branch - actually I know little about bagua styles). I don't say this style has any relationship with baguazhang, but it's an interesting convergence:)

@nonchan03desu Honto desu. Bing-sensei wa yuu ga ni kenpou wo shimasu. Chuugoku kenpou ga daisuki desu! :P

@kenadra13 Actually it's just a very advanced style of wudang wushu. I study Lao baguazhang under one of Master Yuan's students, and I see nothing of bagua in that form. But, then again, bagua is a very young style, and xuan wu quan is probably ancient.

Hen hao, Bing shifu. Wo xihuan nin de xuan wu quan.

Taoism may have been around longer than Buddhism, but Wudang was created by Zhang San Feng; he was a student of Shaolin and left to create Wudang. Owned hard.

[libriano91]

Your right about that,but the shaolin temple is older then wudang taiji.Da Mo came to China long before Zhang San Feng was born and Zhang San Feng studied at the shaolin temple for 10 years,so you could say that his martial art was influenced by shaolin.Then he went to wudang and created taiji when he was at the three peaks of wudang,San Feng means three peaks in chinese.

xuan wu is a form of liang yi, which combinds the softness of taiji (yin) and the hardness bagua (yang). most wudang schools teach it as an advanced form.

[kenadra13]

I don't know this style, but it looks like a mixture of taiji, bagua, and xingyi. Really internal:)
