Please After I am done with this course, how I will put the techniques I learned from this course in use?? Like this course is all about baguazhang? Or there are more levels, once I'm done with this course how I will use what I've learned in fight? I can use them the way they are or I need to learn how to but these techniques in use for fight, please reply to me I've spent alot to know!
This is a course focused on taolu (form) and technique, it's not aimed towards learning how to fight, although it shows the general principles. If you want to learn how to fight with bagua, it'd be best to learn from an actual instructor or person, where you can drill/test out techniques with others, and do actual sparring. Many of the techniques are actually close-in grapples/locks/throws, where you definitely need a person to practice with. If you're curious to see some applications, this channel has a lot of great content: th-cam.com/video/K6IhyKuqflw/w-d-xo.html
I'm not sure why but a lot of her movement reminds me of Jet Li, very similar positioning and flow of the body, is it by any chance the same style or a stance to some degree? I'm really not an expert, just curious
Yes, it is the same "style" or equivalent practice, an interpretation of Baguazhang (八卦掌; bāguàzhǎng, Eight Trigrams Palm) for modern Wushu Taolu (套路； tàolù, forms), a standardization of Chinese martial arts for sport and competition. Jet Li, like the Beijing Wushu Team that produced him as a modern Wushu Taolu athlete and champion, as well as other professional modern Wushu Taolu teams, learned Taolu from traditional Chinese martial arts styles, including but not limited to Baguazhang, which were changed and trained for competition and performance. "M[aster]. Ge [Chunyan, fellow former Beijing Wushu Team member, modern Wushu Baguazhang champion and actress] would often tell stories of the different Masters they encountered. The students would be introduced to a style/system and trained daily for up to a month. Then they would then be asked their major of study for the traditional segment." -Taiping Institute "The Queen of Baguazhang - M. Ge Chunyan | 戈春艷"
@@Hi_im_adel_: Let me add some more to that already great answer. This is gonna bit a bit more long-winded answer. Chinese martial arts are actually comprised of hundred of different styles (you can probably argue for orders of magnitude more if you included different family/lineage lines), so Jet Li usually adopts whatever style makes sense for the movie and character. If you've watched, "The One," then you've seen specifically seen, Jet Li, do baguazhang. "Good Jet Li" uses it to defeat "evil Jet Li" at the end of the movie. And if you've ever seen him do this pose: i.pinimg.com/originals/93/03/17/930317da08d6c0cd5bb1817e81a90d4a.jpg, it's actually a classic bagua pose. However, he does bagua through a modern wushu foundation which as @umbcwushu mentioned, give his movements a certain sort of flavor and style that you wouldn't have from purely traditional styles. So yes, bagua is a Chinese martial art, and not only that this particular form is a modern wushu interpretation, and Jet Li is one of the GOAT of modern wushu. However, there's actually some very interesting things going on, when you're talking specifically about how Jet Li moves in movies. Modern wushu in the 70s had clean, moderately fast and long movements. If you've watched Jet Li's early trilogy of "Shaolin" movies, his flavor then was still very much rooted in his 70s wushu training. It was very long, very flowy, and very smooth, but also quite unrealistic looking (from a screenfighting perspective). Despite interpreting different styles like Shaolin, and mantis, these movies were essentially pure wushu routines in movie form. His style of movement back then was completely different from his movies in the 90s and after. After his early success in the 80s he had some real stinkers and his star power was on the decline. In the 90s, he completely reinvented his screen fighting and choreography to make all his movements looks crisp, explosive, and sharp. Because of his exceptional Wushu training and ability he was able to hit movements with incredible speed and power. This made his role as Wong Fei Hung in, "Once Upon a Time in China," his second big breakout movie and turned him into a cultural icon in Asia. This movie completely changed how martial arts action was done. Especially for those who were used to the shapes and routine heavy Shaw Bros era movies. This form of screen-fighting movement is what he then used for all his later movies, even as he reinterpreted different martial arts styles. In the Hong Kong movie industry when they do action scenes, one of the things they say is do it, "Jet Li style." Meaning in his characteristically fast, clean, and explosive screenfighting style. If you've watched any of his movies past this point in his career, this is probably the Jet Li flavor/style that you're seeing that links them all together (even as he adopts different Chinese arts styles in movies). It's a screen fighting flavor that fits very well with wushu because of what wushu emphasizes as its foundation. All of this led the way to many other great wushu stars. Wu Jing, another martial arts superstar, also started out on the Beijing Wushu Team, and began by emulating many of Jet Li's signatures. Then there's, Donnie Yen, a wushu superstar contemporary of Jet Li's, who also trained with the Beijing Wushu team. He also further reinvented the movie martial arts style of action in the 2000s, starting with SPL Nowadays, they actively recruit wushu exponents because of what Jet Li and other wushu legends like Donnie Yen, Wu Jing, and even Ray Park have done in the industry.
@@bluehippofilms Whoa! that was extremely informative! :) thanks so much for the info, and yes I have seen pretty much all of his movies including the very early ones, Once upon the time in China is my all time favourite series and always will be, ain't nothing beating that! :) I did also notice the style change from film to film or rather throughout the years, he is an absolute master of mixing and presenting styles, as if each of his moves just buries into your memory, I'd say he is one of the people at the very top of iconic martial arts world. Thanks again :)
@@Hi_im_adel_: No problem. I'm a huge martial arts movie buff myself. I grew up on Jet Li, Jackie Chan, and Donnie Yen movies. It's what originally got me into doing modern wushu
I hammer the beers before I compete on a Global Scale over the Entire Earth's surface and I surf the waves with a purpose I handle blades at the circus I lurk it's the jerk coming up strumming stuff numbing cuts like strut that shake and bake take it no fakin' it.
