What is Dachengdao?

[Mtal]

Could anyone tell me about Dachengdao? What are the applications like? Is it a martial art or just something like chi gung, improves your internal power, etc....? What would be done in a Dachengdao class? I found out someone is teaching, and might check out a class. I really do want something that could protect myself, at the same time I did hear there are a lot of health benefits to this style, but is it just like tai chi (no offence, I take it and like it, and probably go back to it one day, but I also need a style that will help me in the street)? Any info would be great. Thank you.

As far as I know is dachengdao should be a xingyiquan substyle. Whether it is effective or not in a street brawl, well ... I don't know: guess it depends 1) on what you mean by effective and 2) on your skill

I think it is also called Yi Quan.
