Xingyiquan, once known as Heart Boxing, was originally created by Ji Longfeng, a "magic gun" in Zuncun, Yongji County, Shanxi Province. It has a history of more than 300 years, and it is also known as the four famous boxing in China with Shaolin Boxing, Tai Ji Chuan and Baguazhang. Over the past 100 years, it has been handed down from generation to generation and developed vigorously, forming various schools with unique styles, which are favored and concerned by martial arts lovers at home and abroad.

First, the formation and rise of Xingyiquan in Song Dynasty

Xingyiquan in Song Dynasty is a famous and important school of traditional Xingyiquan. Founded by Li Luoneng's famous early disciples Song Shirong and Song Shide Kun Zhong, it has a history of 100 years.

Song Shirong 1849 ~ 1927, the word Yuezhai,No. Jingquan; Song Shide 1857 ~ 192 1 year, Yu Furen, No.1 Cloud, is my younger brother. His ancestors served as officials in Jinling and Nanjing in the early Ming Dynasty. In the early years of Yongle, Judy moved to Beijing with the "Prince of Yan" and settled near the Temple of Fire in Daxing, Beijing.

Born into a merchant family, the two brothers are young, ambitious, intelligent and studious. They are widely involved in poetry and songs, four books and five classics, and a hundred schools of thought contend. They are well versed in the Book of Changes, Huang Lao, the five elements of heaven, earth, yin and yang, Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism. They are not only well-read and versatile, but also cool and addicted to martial arts. After studying, they often learn Shaolin Boxing and two classics, Yijinjing and Ximu. Therefore, young skills are pure and ingrained, such as somersault, spinning, swallows splashing water, civet cats climbing trees, etc., which are particularly excellent.

Song Jia used to run the watch industry in Beijing. Later, he heard that Taigu, Shanxi Province is rich in watches and clocks, so-called "Little Beijing". Therefore, Rong Shi and Shide's father, Yong Lugong, went to Taigucheng to set up the "Yong Shan Xing" table bureau. In the fourth year of Tongzhi (65438-0865), Song Shirong went into business with his father in Taigu. At that time, Li Luoneng, the "divine spring" of the military, was hired by Taigu merchants as a martial artist in the Guards Academy, and was famous for his outstanding martial arts. Song Shirong admired his name, and after being introduced, he took Mr. Li Luoneng as his teacher and mastered Xingyiquan. Later, his younger brother, Song Shide, also learned from Mr. Li Luoneng, learned from his older brother, improved his skills and achieved himself. When the stars move, ten things are easy to be hot and cold. Under Li's careful instruction, they studied hard and achieved great success in art, and were appreciated by Mr. Li Luoneng and became Li's most proud disciples.

At the age of 24, Mr. Song Shirong met Mr. Liu from Yan Dou, who works in Shenyang Palace Museum. He was deeply loved by Mr. Liu and gave all the martial arts secrets in the library to the teacher. So, the two brothers risked their lives to study and try the four internal classics repeatedly, combined with the Book of Changes and Shui Mu's two classics, explored their internal skills and painstakingly studied them. Later, they learned from others and absorbed the strengths of hundreds of schools, mastered Taiji and Bagua Boxing, and created a unique Song Xingyiquan with profound internal skills.

At the same time, through their own hard practice and body feeling, they created a variety of unarmed, weapons, unique and duet routines, such as "internal skill package", "sixteen pairs" and unique weapon "corner knife", and made great improvements and innovations in the practice methods and internal and external exercises of three-body piles, five elements and twelve shapes, which were greatly enriched. Later, Song Huchen, Song, Ren Erqi and Jia, the famous descendants of the Song brothers, inherited, developed and perfected it, forming a complete, systematic and scientific Song-style Xingyiquan Wushu system. At this point, the Song Xingyiquan, famous for its profound internal skills and blank ammunition, became famous in Wulin.

Especially "Four Classics of Internal Skill": from then on, it has become a martial arts secret and internal skill treasure book that Wulin people are eager for, eager for and eager for. As the first descendant and admirer of the Four Books on Internal Skill, Master Song Shirong made epoch-making contributions to Xingyiquan and the whole China Wushu. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the "Mount Qomolangma" that stands out from the modern martial arts circles in China. Because of the profound connotation of the four internal skills, it is not only applicable to Xingyiquan, but also to other martial arts. "Four Classics of Internal Skill" is very consistent with medical theory, physiology and boxing theory, and it can be called a rare first-class secret book with both physical and mental skills in martial arts.

Master Song Shirong is also the first martial artist in China who put forward the enlightenment function of martial arts, that is, "Boxing has no distinction between internal and external families" and "Boxing can change people's temperament". This is quoted by Sun Lutang, a famous martial artist, in the article "On the Difference between Boxing and My Family", and its subtlety is unprecedented in the history of martial arts. ?

Second, the style characteristics of Xingyiquan in Song Dynasty

Xingyiquan in Song Dynasty is based on the pictographic meaning of traditional Xingyiquan, Yin and Yang as the mother, three sections for use, four images as the root, five elements for generating grams, and Liuhe as the method, taking the four internal classics as the criterion, and referring to the training methods such as changing bones, tendons, washing marrow and twelve strong methods in the I Ching, washing marrow and practicing from the internal classics. When practicing, we pay great attention to the coordination of internal qi, internal meaning, form and external force, and practice step by step from context, format, gas path and strength. You must first understand your own context, as the classic of internal strength says: "The key to internal strength is to understand the context first. I don't know the context, I can barely use it, it's useless and harmful. " Then adjust the action norms of various parts of the body, that is, the format. For example, the upper body specification is "head straight, shoulders flat and smooth, chest closed, back flat and straight"; The norm of the lower body is "the feet are steady and steady, the knees are bent and stretched, the crotch is deep and hidden, and the side is open." Then, we can understand what Qi Dao Jing says ... Take Gu Dao down, take the jade pagoda up, stand or sit, inhale into the throat, go down at will, and gradually reach the bottom "and" Go up, raise bones together, go down, and relax ". Finally, learn strength tactics and internal skills in detail, such as "communication, penetration, penetration, adhesion, looseness, fierceness, combination and strength" and internal skills such as "pressing shoulders to practice steps, forcing hips to strengthen knees, strengthening hips with crotch, lifting waist under the chest" and "lifting chin, sticking back and tumbling, loosening shoulders and exerting strength"

Secondly, the coordination of head, knee, shoulder, crotch, chest, heart and kidney and the coordination of various movements are explained in turn through the eight diagrams of Gankun, Xundui, Genzhen and Li Kan in Nagua Jing, and then the essence and reality in Shenyun Jing are deeply understood from four aspects: body, shape, use and meaning. Solid gas is the foundation of vertical and horizontal, and taking gas is the foundation of flying. Since the theory of divine luck is clear, we can refer to the techniques of changing bones, tendons and pulp in the Book of Changes and pulp washing to practice the "Twelve Strength Methods of Internal Work". Finally, you can practice chassis kung fu, so that all joints and joints of the human body can reach the stage of "no intention, no intention to be true". That is, the "Lumbricus Classic" said: "It is strong and skillful to practice the whole body; Stretching can be bent or alive; Bend like a tiger and stretch like a dragon; Live without trace, stretch and bend; As strong as iron and as dense as a dragon; Turn a fierce tiger leopard into a sick falcon; High and low, far and near. "

Xingyiquan in Song Dynasty is simple and vigorous, with a set of words. Rigid and flexible, yin and yang exchange; Inside and outside Liuhe, the strength is unparalleled; The combination of motion and static, accompanied by chronic diseases, is very effective in actual combat, health preservation and performance. It can be described as a collection of martial arts that is both internal and external.

Xingyiquan in Song Dynasty is famous for its exquisite internal strength and unique strength. There are both the extremely rigid explosive force of thunder breaking the ice and the extremely soft force of "like a rope", which is the merit of being extremely soft and rigid, that is, the so-called "loose as a rope and tough as water" in Internal Classic. Its unique method of boosting internal strength was summarized by Song Guanghua, the grandnephew, the grandson of Song Shide, the eldest son of Song, and the only descendant of today's martial arts and Song Xingyiquan "Bang" as "internal and external combination, mutual support from top to bottom, left and right struggle, back and forth interaction, whole body coordination, first loosening and then tightening, fast tightening, and loosening in tightening". This fist emphasizes the shock, the shaking and the rolling: like a crossbow, it can suddenly give out the elastic explosive force of expansion and vibration during exercise, and the whole body vibrates, which is exactly the continuous explosive force called "the enemy is like fire, and the explosive force is uninterrupted" in ancient music.
