The full name of Bagua Palm is "wandering in the chain of Bagua Palm", which is generally classified as an inner family.
"Eight diagrams" first appeared in Zhouyi: "Two instruments give birth to four images, and four images give birth to eight diagrams". Bagua originally refers to eight directions, namely, north, south, east, west, northwest, southwest, northeast and southeast. Bagua palm is mainly palm method, and its basic content is eight palms, which is consistent with the number of bagua palms; In boxing, it is required to swing and buckle away in all eight directions, unlike ordinary boxing, which is called "Bagua Palm". In fact, there is no internal connection between gossip and gossip.
The popular Bagua Palm, also known as "Wandering Bagua Palm" or "Dragon Bagua Palm", was introduced by Dong Haichuan (1796-1882). Bagua palm is a kind of boxing with palm change and turn. It combines martial arts with guiding breathing and breathing, and practices both inside and outside. Not only has the function of strengthening the body, but also can exercise the skills of attack and defense fighting, which is deeply loved by the broad masses of the people and enjoys a high reputation in the Wulin.
Bagua palm is a kind of boxing which is mainly based on palm change and walking, walking and turning (walking in circles). That is, draw a circle with the distance of one arm as the radius, and then walk around the circle. It combines martial arts with guiding breathing and breathing, and practices both inside and outside. Can keep fit, but also exercise the skills of attack and defense fighting. There is another exception. There is a set of sixty-four palms, which is a straight fist.
The traditional eight diagrams palm has been studied by many famous teachers, based on the eight diagrams theory, with a circle of eight steps and eight palms and a single palm change as the basic palm potential. The routine is flexible and not fixed, and different practitioners have different routines, but now many rehearsed Bagua Palm are not completely in accordance with this tradition.
Bagua Palm emphasizes the flexibility of posture, and requires practitioners to turn around constantly, change the distance and direction of the enemy and ourselves, avoid frontal and oblique attacks, and wait for opportunities to attack; Pay attention to improvisation and give play to the flexible characteristics of palm relative to fist and hook. Its technology includes pushing, supporting, covering, splitting, bumping, moving, cutting and taking.
The movement characteristics of Bagua Palm are: walking, watching, sitting and turning. These characteristics provide necessary exercise conditions for developing skills, especially the shortcut and flexibility of lower limb strength. Eight diagrams palm is based on internal skills such as "walking on the pile" and "stepping on the mud", which is transformed into the basic action form through twisting and walking, and the change of palm method is the main attack means. Internal and external training, emphasizing physical and mental training, being as fast as a dragon, and twisting palms are endless. Make moves, combine rigidity with softness, kick off and dissolve into one. Twist around, don't be inclined, dot, and follow the lead without end.
Bagua palm replaces boxing with palm and walks in circles, which breaks through the traditional boxing method of focusing on boxing and walking in a straight line, and opens up a new world for China Wushu. Its footwork is mainly lifting, stepping, swinging and buckling, and it rotates continuously from left to right. Eight diagrams palm takes walking as the most important thing, and requires meaning such as waving a flag, being like a cloud, rolling drill as a wrap, moving and static supporting each other, combining rigidity with softness, and combining singularity with righteousness. Good fist, really like Youlong, see the first missing the tail; If the disease floats, it will be immediate; Looking forward, suddenly falling behind, often can make the opponent dizzy. In order to deal with the enemy, you can avoid the real and hit the virtual, and you can hit your shoulder with your hand.
Eight diagrams palm technique is based on actual combat, which has a unique effect in strengthening the body and prolonging life.
There are other sparring partners and Sanshou in Bagua Palm, and the instruments are knives, swords, sticks, mandarin ducks, and shotguns. Its footwork requirements are the same as the palm method. Bagua Dao, also known as "Eight Dishes Dao", is 1.4m long and weighs 2kg, which is longer and heavier than ordinary single Dao.
The musical instruments of Baguazhang mainly include:
Spring and Autumn Knife, Samurai Gun, Serial Sword, Serial Pure Yang Sword, Serial Panlong Stick, Five Elements Stick, Kunlun Shovel Bagua Knife.
■ Working theory
There are many functions of Bagua Palm, mainly focusing on:
▲ (1) Eight essentials:
1. Three shapes and three potentials: Three shapes mean "walking like a dragon, moving like a monkey, changing like an eagle". The three potentials are "walking like mud, twisting arms like ropes, and turning like grinding".
2. Three-in-one: three-in-one, that is, "palm empty, foot empty, chest empty". The trinity is: "meaning and qi, qi and force, force and intention."
3. three circles and three tops: three circles means "the back should be round, the arms should be round, and the tiger's mouth should be round." The three tops are "the top of the tongue is the upper jaw, the top of the head is the sky, and the top of the palm is the front".
4. Three wraps and three sensitivities: three wraps means "gas should be wrapped, shoulders should be wrapped, elbows should be wrapped". The three senses are "the heart should be sensitive, the eyes should be sensitive, and the palms should be sensitive".
▲ (2) Nine Theories
The "Nine Theories" are: body, shoulders, arms, fingers, elbows, thighs, feet, valleys and legs.
1. On the body: straight head, weak breath, waist as the axis, stride as the pioneer.
2. On the shoulder: the shoulder should be loose. If it is loose, it will open the shoulder point and penetrate the whole body.
3. On the arm: When the forearm is round, the inner strength stretches out, like a curve, straight, and curved like an arch.
4. On the finger: the index finger is hooked, the middle finger points upwards, the ring finger and the little finger are close together, and the big finger is slightly buckled.
5. On the elbow: the front hand is pushed out, the back hand is down, the front elbow is aligned with the heel, and the back elbow is aligned with the rear toe.
6. On stocks: the former stocks lead the gains, while the latter stocks sit hard.
7. On the foot: the inner foot is straight out, the outer foot is slightly buckled, the foot buckle is small, the foot is large, and the foot is like mud, flat and flat.
8. On Gu Dao: The so-called lifting the anus to fill the abdomen means lifting the qi on the femoral canal and connecting it to the ren meridian, which is called lifting the anus.
9. Leg: The thigh drives the cross, and the calf and the back knee drive the ankle.
Song and Japan: Ten points and nine arguments, the change of flowers is wonderful.
If you can understand the mystery, you can walk around the circle.
▲ (3) The techniques of Bagua Palm mainly pay attention to:
1. Palm method:
Palm types include upturned palm, prone palm, vertical palm, grasping palm, piercing palm, splitting palm, lifting palm, picking palm, collapsing palm, bumping palm and closing palm.
The palm method mainly includes: pushing and pulling, and chopping. Go through the flash and block and stick to it. Chop, smash, chop, grab and pick. If it collapses, the film will be cut over.
2. Footwork:
Steps: broken step, buckle step, servant step, half-horse step, etc.
Footsteps: take off and land, swing buckle, advance and retreat, break and flash, etc.
3. Leg method:
Legs are shaped like scissors and walk like mud. Leg method: swing buckle kick, collapse kick, chop. Bagua palm has the function of revealing legs and hiding legs, but the legs are palms together, mainly with dark legs.
4. Body posture:
The eight diagrams palm is shaped like Youlong, with its waist standing like an axis, and its posture is exquisite and round. The body moves with the step, the palm changes with you, the step turns with the palm, and it is coordinated up and down.
The whole body is motionless, wriggling like running water and turning up and down like a proud dragon.
■ Attack and defense principle of Bagua Palm:
Take the palm as the method, walk as the use, dissolve, kick and throw as one, and go with the flow endlessly. Avoid right deviation, follow the trend, be unpredictable, and get out of the shadows. Softness is a needle hidden in cotton and stuck to it; At this moment, the cold bomb collapsed and exploded as fast as lightning and thunder.
Gossip practitioners step into the hands from the line, based on internal strength, shape preservation, ventilation, knowledgeable, skilled and flexible. Taking the eight palms as the mother palm, different styles of practical palm methods and routines have evolved. There are many kinds of musical instruments in the Bagua Palm, especially the Bagua Knife.
Baguazhang is not only one of the three famous fists in China, but also widely circulated all over the country and loved by international friends.
General formula of baguazhang program
Bagua Zhang, take the first step, take it and let it go, go and return it, and turn it into reality.
Walk like the wind, stand like a nail, buckle your swing and change your footwork. The waist is the shoulder, the qi is the flag, and the eyes are on the six hands and feet first.
Walk like a dragon, sit like a tiger and move like a river. Yin and Yang hands, flip up and down, sink your shoulders and elbows, and return to Dan.
Hold on to Liuhe, don't disperse, and the gas will naturally spread all over your body. Buckle the swing, carefully roll it up and switch back and forth at the waist.
Hit seven with your feet, hit three with your hands, and put your hands and feet together. Hips off the ground, hit shoulders, and squeeze the dark top knee hard.
High is not embarrassing, low is not stopping, and the wind is the first. Without pure work, it is useless to say a few words in your hand.
Introduction to Baguazhang Characters
■ Dong Haichuan
Baguazhang was created by Dong Haichuan, a native of Wen 'an County, Hebei Province. Dong Haichuan was born in the 18th year of Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty (A.D. 18 12) and died in the 9th year of Guangxu (A.D. 1882). In the spring and February of the ninth year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty, disciples erected a monument in front of the tomb of Xiaoniufang Village outside Dongzhimen, and built it four times. Due to the destruction during the "Cultural Revolution", at the initiative of Li and others, the person in charge of Bagua Map moved to Beijing Wan 'an Cemetery on 1980 and erected a monument for it.
Dong's epitaph
Mr. Wang's surname is Dong Haichuan and he lives in Zhu Wujia, south of Wen 'an. If you don't be a hero, you won't produce. What Guo Jie did, helped the poor and spared no effort. Good hunting, the sun is better than the forest, and wild animals make it easy. And the dragon, all over the world, five mountains and Bashu, where famous mountains and rivers, all exploration and curiosity, in order to strengthen its ambition. Later, when he met Huang Guan, he was given martial arts, so he was brave in boxing. Inadvertently, I imitated the middle-aged Sima Gong, meaning to be a eunuch. As soon as Mr. Wang showed his heroism, his colleagues immediately doubted him and turned to Su Di. I have to live outside because of the old spirit. Invite thousands of artists, from sages to craftsmen and dignitaries, and give each one a work of art. After trying to swim beyond the Great Wall, several people were ordered to attack each other with sharp weapons, and the gentleman greeted him in all directions as fast as a whirlwind. Viewers all call them brave and fear their style. When I lay dying, the follower spread his hands and feet, like an iron man, and sat up and died three days later, meaning that he was feathered. There are more than 100 people in mourning in middle schools. Because it is buried outside Dongzhimen, far from the city, it is unforgettable. They have issued a statement expressing their thanks.
In the ninth year of Guangxu, the stone was erected in February and spring.
This inscription, written by 56 disciples handed down from Dong Haichuan, is the earliest written record of Dong Haichuan's life, which is authoritative and provides the most important historical basis for the early spread of Baguazhang and the textual research of Dong Haichuan's life. Among these disciples, Yin Fu, Ma Weiqi, Cheng, Fan Zhiyong, Liang Zhenpu and He are the most famous. There are mainly two schools of Bagua Palm: one is Cheng School represented by Cheng's Dragon Claw Palm, and the other is Yin School represented by Yin Fu's Niu Tong Palm. Other schools are basically related to these two schools.
The life of Dong Haichuan, a former teacher, is a life with outstanding contributions to Wushu and a legendary life, which will be remembered forever. The eight diagrams palm he created is for the benefit of future generations and mankind. Eight diagrams palm, which combines health preservation and martial arts, will remain young forever! Master Dong Haichuan will live forever.
After Dong Haichuan's "death", with the efforts of his disciples, a large number of Baguazhang came out and spread widely. In its birthplace, Beijing, Bagua Palm has become an influential martial arts school. After the second generation of disciples, Baguazhang began to develop in Hebei, Shandong, Tianjin and other surrounding areas. After several generations' efforts, Bagua Palm has spread all over the world and become the martial art chosen by many people.
Gossip has been introduced into China for more than one hundred and fifty years. Later, I studied deeply and enriched its skills. Especially the second generation masters Yin Fu, Cheng, Fan Zhiyong,,,, Liang Zhenpu, etc. , enriched and improved the skills of the eight diagrams palm, naturally connected, forming a different style, making it more colorful in China.
Dong Haichuan's disciples are all skilled apprentices, and Dong Haichuan taught students in accordance with their aptitude, forming a genre of eight diagrams with different styles. The branches of Baguazhang schools have both * * * characteristics and outstanding personality characteristics.
It has been 100 years since Bagua Palm was introduced to China. Although the development of Bagua Palm is not long, it is deeply loved by the broad masses of the people. Because of its combination of motion and static, combination of rigidity and softness, internal and external skills have their own miraculous effects, and it can be practiced by men, women and children. Bagua Palm not only developed greatly in the north and south of China, but also spread to all parts of Asia, Europe and America.
Even so, compared with Tai Ji Chuan, the breadth, depth and popularity of Bagua Palm are far less than that of Tai Ji Chuan. I hope that my colleagues in Baguazhang will do a good job in publicity and popularization, so that this excellent martial arts boxing can be handed down and better contribute to the people's treatment, longevity and health.
For Bagua Palm, many people only notice its fast footwork, but often ignore the practice of palm strength. Eight diagrams palm should pay attention to one hand, and all kinds of forces should be available, such as wearing, drilling, twisting and winding. Pay attention to the coordinated and balanced use of power.
"Eight diagrams" first appeared in Zhouyi: "Two instruments give birth to four images, and four images give birth to eight diagrams". Bagua palm is a kind of boxing with palm change and turn.
