Wu's open-door octupole boxing is abbreviated as Wu's octupole boxing or octupole boxing. Every school of traditional martial arts in China has a resounding name. These names either borrowed the taboo of the founder or originated from the name of the birthplace. Octupole boxing is a symbol of "invisibility". "Meng Cun Zhen Wu Bajiquan Secret Book Spectrum" says that "literature has Taiji to secure the world, and martial arts has octupole skills to do it". In fact, "Tai Chi" and "Eight Extremes" are philosophical terms used by the ancients to explain the changes of natural laws, not martial arts terms. The word "octupole" was originally an ancient geographical concept, which originated from "between nine continents and octupole" in Huainanzi Wrestling Training. Used in martial arts, "octupole" means "octupole far away". The following is what I have arranged for you:

Bajiquan has a history of nearly 300 years since its ancestor Wuzhong was founded. In the long process of its formation and development, she won the admiration of the martial arts community with her unique drill style and martial arts effect. In order to better inherit this excellent traditional culture, the author based on his years of study, in order to improve and improve.

First, what is octupole boxing

According to "The Secret Book of Wu's Bajiquan in Mengcun Town, Hebei Province", "I have a set of Bajiquan. What is octupole boxing? Wen has Tai Chi to secure the world, and Wu has Eight Extremes to make Kun Cheng. Tai Chi changes into eight, eight and sixty-four hexagrams, which can predict the future; Octupole is divided into 8864 hands and has the ability to help the weak and help the strong. " The words "Taiji" and "Octupole" mentioned in this article are terms of China's ancient philosophy. It is not only Tai Ji Chuan who can rule the world, but also octupole boxing. Then, why use this passage as an introduction to explain all the theoretical basis of octupole boxing? Opinions vary, but the author thinks that the study of both "Taiji" and "Octupole" should start with the study of Yin and Yang, because Yin and Yang are the basis of all things. According to Ci Hai, "Taiji is a philosophical term of China." Is it easy? In the copula,' too easy to have, meaning that two instruments give birth to four images, and four images give birth to gossip'. Tai Chi here is the origin of everything. "He also said," octupole, the most remote place ... "Traditional Tai Ji Chuan theory highlighted the word" wai ",and octupole boxing theory highlighted the word" open ". These two forms of expression are actually two sides of the same thing. The reason why the ancients said that "everything belongs to the Sect" lies in this.

It can be seen that it is not unreasonable for predecessors to organically combine "octupole boxing" with "boxing" to form a technique that is all-round, strong and violent, pursues truth and has both offensive and defensive skills. It just reflects the combination of wisdom and skills of human beings in the process of creating history, studying nature, conquering nature and fighting for survival. ?

Second, the formation and connotation of the small frame theory of Bajiquan.

The small frame of octupole boxing is called matriarchal routine in octupole boxing, that is, all the technical routines of octupole boxing are derived from the small frame, which must be based on the theory of "six big openings" The so-called "six big openings" are: top, hug, single, lift, crotch and entanglement. Six forces in one, landing is a trick.

Top: the attack force pointing forward is embodied in the head, hands, shoulders, elbows, hips, knees, feet and tail of the human body. That is to say, in these eight parts, no matter which part directly touches the other side in parallel, it is the top. Bajiquan, also known as "Kai", is one of the core techniques of Bajiquan.

Embrace: refers to all adduction and adduction forces, which are manifested in the forms of blocking, picking, intercepting and emptying. It is a means of defense of octupole boxing.

Single: refers to the splitting force of single palm or double palm of curve. The form of operation is uncertain, and the deficiency is attraction, but in fact it is aggressive and unpredictable.

Mention: refers to the artificial upward gravity, the purpose of which is to destroy the opponent's center of gravity, and also has the meaning of martial arts, which is highlighted in the attack process of hands, elbows, knees and feet.

Hip: refers to the lateral change of the coordination between the arm and the knee and hip during exercise, which is mostly used in wrestling.

Entanglement: it is the combination and change of longitudinal spiral force and transverse rotation force. Usually hold the opponent's anti-joint with both hands in order to catch or subdue the opponent.

The "Six Openings" are embodied in the small frame of Bajiquan with its distinctive offensive and defensive characteristics. The process of people practicing the small frame of octupole boxing is also a process of further understanding of the "six major opening". The research and application of the "six openings" should adopt a dialectical attitude and should not be artificially covered with a mysterious coat. The "Six Openings" can be divided into two parts, that is, from the perspectives of mechanics, kinematics and anatomy, to find some research topics for those who seek to study Bajiquan more deeply. However, inseparability means that it is the product of organic combination in the application process. In this regard, we must get rid of superstition, emancipate our minds and treat it with a scientific and realistic attitude.

The original octupole boxing frame consists of sixteen movements. Boxing spectrum says: Infinite movement gives birth to Tai Chi, and Tai Chi gives birth to two instruments; Two instruments give birth to four elephants, and the four elephants are divided into eight diagrams * * and a set of four broad fists * * *; For those who shoot in the air and close their elbows, Liuhe also approved a set of six big fists, and liuhe gun Liuhe Dao also * * *; Kneeling, north and south poles also; Those who caress their hands, the sky turns; Waist forward and backward; Octupole, infinite return to the original.

Analyzing the boxing spectrum, the sixteen movements are: 1, stepless; 2. Ryougi Shiki; 3. Bow-open type; 4. Tianpao; 5. close your elbows; 6. put your hands together; 7, gun type; 8. gun lift; 9. Mountain breeze; 10, kneeling; 1 1, clap your hands; 12, independent; 13, walking around wearing sleeves; 14 through back type; 15, hanging tower; 16, return to the original shape.

Under the research of the sixth master, Mr. Wu Xiufeng, the octupole boxing frame has been further enriched, forming the 24-style frame that Mengcun is now implementing. On the basis of maintaining the original style, some new contents have been added, which fully embodies the original internal force in ten aspects: "shaking, shrinking, stupefied, containing, shocking, collapsing, supporting, standing, vertical and horizontal", making the exercise style of octupole boxing more prominent.

As the matriarchal routine of Bajiquan, Jony J is unique in consciousness and physical performance. According to my understanding, we should focus on the following points:

First, the understanding of routines should follow the principle of intangible-tangible, tangible-intangible change.

The small drill starts from the infinite style, and the boxing method says: chaos is infinite, tai chi is moved ... infinity returns to the original. Two infinity are repeatedly put forward in boxing formula. Although the two infinity use the same words, their actual meanings are quite different. The first infinity refers to the instinct of self-acceptance and protection in the passive existence at the beginning of everything. This instinct is innate and everyone exists. After entering nature, we need to know and study nature, so as to gain the ability to transform and overcome nature, and this process is only a cognitive process from intangible to tangible; The second infinity is to sublimate consciousness and skills to be freely used through further confirmation of the tangible, but it takes hard work to achieve this invisibility. The creation and compilation of octupole follows this principle.

Second, the routine structure is also a process of never knowing knowledge, then knowing it again, and finally reaching arbitrary domination.

The small frame movement starts with holding the head and the pole. This action reflects people's natural protective instinct, which is explained by the viewpoint that octupole boxing is pure yin. Therefore, we can transition to Ryougi Shiki by pulling the bow and fixing the male needle. These three movements reflected people's initial resistance. The balance of "Yi" is to achieve an existence and find a balance through violence and hard work. "Two instruments" also have the meaning of tomorrow's land and knowledge. The ancients used bows to shoot arrows and sets of needles to vividly show the meaning that octupole boxing can reach all directions, and the end point of this desire is the "weapon", which reveals that life must struggle, but we must know the world, know the severity and finally find a balance. The second stage consists of three movements: lion's mouth opening, fist crossing and buttocks offering, that is, the changing process of two instruments giving birth to four images and four images giving birth to eight diagrams. If the "two instruments" are regarded as the vertical balance between heaven and earth, then the lion's oral boxing is the horizontal pole produced by the change of Gankun, forming four directions: east, west, north and south; Hip sacrifice is a gossip change formed by movement translation and palm varus. The octupole mini-frame starts from the infinite type and drills here. All its "Yi Yan" expressions are clear. There are five movements in the third stage: air cannon, elbow retraction, hand withdrawal, needle fixation and Ryougi Shiki. If the actions in the first and second stages are regarded as the needs of instinctive resistance, then these five actions are the manifestations of natural resistance. Sky cannon refers to fighting with heaven, elbow and ground, the hand of zygote is the combination of heaven and earth, and the combination of heaven and earth is the combination of yin and yang, and the principle of Liuhe is also among them. The new energy that heaven and earth broke out together formed a new "two instruments". There are seven movements in the fourth paragraph: pinching elbow, kicking crotch, hitting back, five-shot out of hole, raising gun, pushing window handle and going up hill. These seven movements are the image embodiment of the "six-opening" movement and the deepening of human resistance. The fifth paragraph is several movements, such as kneeling, touching hands and looking around, which embodies several coping strategies adopted after mastering certain martial arts skills. Kneeling is also the north and south poles, which means lying on it and obeying yin; It is a situation different from direct attack, which subdues the opponent through horizontal and vertical rotation changes; It is a circuitous attack strategy when the frontal attack is ineffective. The sixth stage is to turn around and push the palm to hang the tower, with a single wing top and unlimited return. This paragraph reflects that after a boxing drill, I look back and understand a lot, and it also reflects the improvement of my understanding of octupole boxing.

The routine arrangement of the whole small frame is linked by the way of infinity-confidant-knowing the world-knowing the other-knowing the strategy-returning to the original without infinity, which vividly shows the profound ideological connotation of Bajiquan and fully embodies the wisdom of the creator. Although the action of the small frame of octupole boxing is simple and clear, it has profound implications and needs constant understanding to get the true meaning.

Third, explore the profound technical and ideological connotation of Bajiquan small frame from the technical style and action image.

Octupole boxing is a kind of boxing that combines rigidity with softness, and its external manifestations are mostly violent and close to the body. According to the progressive formula of octupole boxing, it should be explained as follows: one is like a madman; Second, practice soft cotton sealing, avoiding and dialing; Practice inch by inch, inch by inch, inch by inch; Fourth, practice the posture of free standing and lazy dragon lying; Five internal organs, five qi and five exercises; Sixth, practice flesh and blood; Seventh, we should respect teachers and pay attention to teaching; Eight, fight with people, need to stay in Germany. The ideological connotation reflected in these eight exercises is extremely rich. Stupid power refers to the instinctive force of human beings, which requires that all the instinctive force should be exerted at the beginning of practice, and that power should be infiltrated into far and wide places to give full play to human inner potential. Soft cotton refers to the change process from just to soft, because the premise of intelligence must have enough strength, without which it is difficult to talk about intelligence. Inch footage, inch footage, inch footage, inch footage means that with the first two layers of effort, we can study the instantaneous force, and we should shape it from the outside and exert our strength from the inside to achieve perfection. Exercising the five internal organs and combining the bones and muscles is the way to keep fit, because the purpose of practicing is self-defense and fitness, and the purpose of combining yin and yang is achieved by regulating qi and practicing. The last two exercises are to make martial arts practitioners understand that learning skills is not easy. They should respect teachers, cherish themselves, respect others, and constantly improve their martial arts cultivation.

Bajiquan has some technical moves that conform to the etiquette of the Qing Dynasty, such as blowing dust, saluting and bowing down, which shows its historical origin. There are unique representative movements such as Ryougi Shiki, elbow retraction and single wing top, which indicate its uniqueness in creativity; In the form of action, there are opening and closing, clear movement, broken fist, rigid but not hard, soft but not soft, which also shows the distinctive characteristics of octupole boxing. Therefore, when we study and practice the Bajiquan small frame, we must deeply understand its spiritual essence, master its movement change law and style characteristics, and acquire its technical skills through repeated comprehension.
