sangngak Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 One thing I learned was from a teacher from China. He had me do Hsing-Yi, Bagua, and Tai Chi (Chen, Sun & Yang) all at the same time. The reason was, he said, one of these arts would be the best suited for my body to develop chi. Sure enough, one day, I was doing one of the moves and suddenly it felt like Chi was literally bursting out of my body. Trmendous speed and power quickly developed. Then he said from now on just do that school (Hsing-Yi) as your main practice. The chi, he said, would spill over into my other arts and they would then develop chi faster. Sure enough the Yin Fu Bagua I did also started to gain in chi, the the Sun Tai Chi and the Chen and the Yang.Then he had me study the chi each method developed to see if I could feel the subtle differences in each styles chi.
Kajukenbopr Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Hsing Yi has that great thing about it: you become good in it in a relatively short time making very good fighters. <> Be humble, train hard, fight dirty
sangngak Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 I agree re Chinese arts, that Hsing-i is quick to learn and use. I started in the 50's in Kajukenbo, so still prefer it and having used it enough times I trust it if things get rough.
