Kajukenbopr Posted October 21, 2007 Author Share Posted October 21, 2007 for you brave souls that would be willing to try to learn this art and do not have a teacher nearby:https://www.cmaod.com - look for the dvds for Bagua(Pakua)those are not the only dvds or vcds you will find online, but the easiest to get(at least for me)Also, for those living in the Memphis, Tenessee area, or down in Texas, I could put you into contact with 2 friends of mine, both teachers of their respective schools.For people who wish to go to China, there is also, another friend more than willing to teach foreigners, though details of that have to be discussed with him. <> Be humble, train hard, fight dirty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sangngak Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Dr Xie Peiqi wanted to document the entire Yin Fu method. All 8 fists. Hehas passed on but his group(s) still sell his DVDs and they are the best I have ever seen for learning BaGua at home. They recommend you start with the Lion fist as it develops yang chi thefastest, then you select the fist best suited to your body type, which is the way it was originally done.I've retired from MA and have several of their VHS tapes. If you are willing to pay postage I'll send them to you free of charge.(Just as a favor to someone who trains under Sonny Emperado) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yingampyang Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Yes i have had experience with it but i rather tai chi or intense katas of ZEN i just dont find anything useful from Baguazhang. I think that there is no 1 style , and that to truly become a great martial artist and person you must take information from where ever you can.

yingampyang Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Yes i have seen many people that say that they can teach it but know little about it. After a while i started to take what was useful to me and didn't pay attention to the others. I think that there is no 1 style , and that to truly become a great martial artist and person you must take information from where ever you can.
