Here to airbend
It looks harmless until they are behind you.
AIRBENDING
Man of culture
I'm so glad somebody mentioned it. I was going to comment that too
you mean Neji's style.......
@@MrRedkid555 gentle fist
Thats why I'm here
I knew it was airbending, but i didn't know it was gentle fist😂
BYAKUGAN
Yo my mind was blown up when I realized Aang is a Hyūga haha
And thus begins my ninja training 🔥🔥🔥
this is an ACTUAL ba gua zhang master, unlike that one other video of two "masters" sparring by doing the movements without actually understanding them. i love this explanation because it has a spiritual explanation, not just the moves. 🤜✋(hh there's no emoji for the chinese martial art bow thingie >_>)
I don't know if I'm going to be a ninja with ninjutsu or an airbender nomad
Interesting to see a master of this style and see the actual movement and form. You can see the simplicity in his natural movement. To get to at this point it’s very hard work. As for the opinionated comments thinking they know better: “maybe you’ll come around”
if you get my drift :))
Thanks for sharing! Have a nice day!
Beautiful
A great explanation

"I am who I am today because of practicing Chinese Martial Arts. Chinese Martial Arts is a life prolonging, mental, and spiritual training. I love both the external and internal sides of the art, not only the forms, but the applications, theories, Daoist and Buddhist philosophies behind them. Above all, what fascinates me the most is universal truth that we may discover thru the training of this art. Chinese Martial Arts is so beautiful and profound. From its thousands years of history, we are able to see the wisdom of our ancestors. Although it is originated from China, it belongs to the whole world. The learning and training of Chinese Martial Arts is an inseparable part of my life and will never stop."
👀👁
Where does he teach? In Canada?
@@seinundzeiten SYL Wushu in Vancouver.
Recently, I been experiencing many unfortunate events. The negative energy I was receiving from others or life events had really put me down. I had walked at the beach multiple times in hopes of taking the pressure off of me. One night I watched an old video from Jet Li. I was fascinated by the style he used. I decided to look it up. Until I found out, I did more research on it. Aside from the aspect of combat, it has other benefits, which I found could really lift my spirit up and reduce stress. I hope that by incorporating Bagua Zhang into my daily life, not only would my health would improve but my mood as well. It is the first martial arts system that will be introduced to me. Without further hesitation, I would do what it takes to change my life to betterment and rejuvenate the healthy and joyful state I used to have. I just purchased the bundle from your website. I will train religiously beginning today. I am happy that I have access to the books to get started. I will wait on the DVDS. I will also purchase the Bagua for beginners 2 once it is released in May. Thank you Chen Sifu for making this training available online.
How is your journey so far?
Nice introduction video clip!
Actually, it means you finish running a circle by using exactly 8 steps. The turning of you foot by 45 degrees allows you to circle around your opponent's blind side very quickly.
In the West there was a style of saber referred to as "the Decans" based on the divisions of the Zodiac. It also emphasized the "connectedness" of the cycle of nature but suggested strategies based on the dominant "Humor" (element) of the opponent. There was only one pamphlet ever released and there are no surviving practitioners.
Would love to see Bagua sparring
"Be the leaf!" - Unknown bald womaniser little boy
Which style of baguazhang is widely practiced around the world?
Jet lee's movie "the one" the good jet lee was practicing this style.
Yes, his two characters practiced opposite styles: straight line XINGYIQUAN and circular BAGUAZHANG
So funny I was just trying to Google what evil jet li was doing in the jail cell lol. I always liked it as a kid and now was pretty sure it was xing yi but couldn't find an answer........ until now. The universe provides. Xiexie. Amituofo!
I had an opportunity to learn bagua one on one over the winter with a guy who was taught by tom bisio and I lost his number emediatly after getting it. Really upset about that.
@@itsallaroundyou7085 These videos are quite detailed, you can really learn. Take care.
the movement is just like xiao yu from tekken
8 trigrams 64 palm!
Walking the circle with that wu shu style step is no way to train proper Pa Kua Chang alignment or coiling. If you don't learn how to step correctly (either lion or mudwalk step) then you are truly missing the forest for the trees.
Would like to know if Emei bagua has its roots in the Sun style of bagua.
No, its the other way around. Emei Bagua is ancient. Sun style was created by Sun Lutang in the early 1900s and incorporates some Bagua moves and principles.
this is Li Tianji Baguagzhan, not Éméi
Chenhan rules! I love his teaching style. He has stronger joints than the average person from teenage kung fu conditioning, so he can manifest jing without rooting his heels. He's amazing and fun to learn from.
Hi David..Master Chenhan looks very good indeed. What school of bagau does he belong to? Someone mentioned Cheng?
so Bagua Zhang uses nature, and by extention, history, repeating, to predict the future, should no actions be taken to subvert this future, if any actions can be taken, interesting
Sounds nice, but is there any evidence at all that he actually knows how to fight? Most martial arts masters can't fight their way out of a wet paper bag. Forms don't cut it, we need real proof that he can actually apply the things he teaches in real-life combat.
Is Bagua Zhang the chinese name of Tai Cuc Dao or, if you prefer, is Tai Cuc Dao the vietnamese name of Bagua Zhang?
No, that would be Taekwondo, a martial art originated from Korean. Bagua Zhang is Bat Quai Chuong in Vietnames, it is one of the 3 major style in Wudang martial arts. Rough translation to English is Eight Trigram Palm (Ba = Bát = Eight, Gua = Quái = Trigram and Chưởng = Palm)
Just so I can understand Master Chen's lineage, is he part of the Cheng style of Bagua? It looks really authentic and his background is solid! Just want to know what family of Bagua he belongs to if I am to get started with these DVDS (I have a lot of Dr Yang's material too which I enjoy!!).
No, he is not with Cheng-style. He is President of Shou-Yu Liang Wushu in Vancouver, and a student for decades of GM SYL. shouyuliang.com/instructors/ben-chenhan-yang.php
@@Ymaa_Publication_Center Actually master Chenhan was kind enough to confirm that he does Emei style. I will definitely be purchasing these from YMAA shortly!!
In the movie The Grandmaster, do you feel like the Bagua style in that movie is a good representation of the form?
Its a variation of the Cheung style as is the one found in this video. Bagua has a great many variations.
Can i use it do to aerokinesis
yes it's useful
so did neji predicted his death
Really want to learn this, but it is a problem here in Slovakia
It's a problem in the UK as well. Next lifetime maybe. :)
That's WHY we make DVDs. www.amazon.com/Bagua-Beginners-Chenhan-Baguazhang-Bestseller/dp/B07NWYFXYZ/
@@Antraeus Romania, too. xD
@@Ymaa_Publication_Center Can't learn this from books and videos. I have a few of Dr Yang's books from years ago. No disrespect. They're wonderful but quite useless, at least to someone like me. lol.
@@Antraeus Its true, everyone learns differently. And everyone learns better with a teacher in person. But for some without a qualified teacher on the subject within miles, an instructional video can for for you as a very helpful few hours of private class in your living room to refer back to.
As much as I'd love learning Bagua Zhang, I feel the DVD would not be as helpful as actually finding an actual teacher. A teacher is still the best way to learn. With that being the case, at least a teacher can not only answer questions, but can also correct any incorrect movements and hand/body/footwork errors. Don't get me wrong. A DVD is great for having someone introduced to the practice, but it has its limitations.
YES. This is true of all martial arts. But most people don't have a qualified teacher within 50 miles. So, we make our videos extremely detailed with instructions you can actually learn from, taught by the best teachers in the world.
In real fights The spining shpuld be used like kentic linkage in boxing .and only at the proper time .and not like a flashy dance moving without purpose .
En español por favor 🥺
So this where Nejis gentle fist technique came from
Def related. The origin is ancient.
windfall
Modern Wushu. If that's what floats your boat...
zuko can teaches airbending!?
But can we own zuko is a fire bending northern shaolin kung fu
Could Bagua predict the 2020 pandemic
Can Bagua get us to Mars by 2021?
ahh yes real life neji
很可惜！某某未能出國！
He reminds me of Jack Ma.
no shit i thought thats who that was for a second.
I though he was Jack Ma haha

Sorry this is a watered down form from elsewhere.
Actually, you might be surprised to learn that Master Chenhan is now president of Shou-Yu Liang Kung Fu school. GM Liang learned this Bagua during childhood growing up on Emei mountain where the form was originally created, being taught by his grandfather, one of the earliest legendary martial art masters who taught and popularized Baguazhang. So...yeah.
@@Ymaa_Publication_Center AMAZING!!!
I wouldn't say watered down, but it seems to me that all Liang guys are "disconected", for lack of a better word. It's like pure dance, only"form"; the movements are correct I guess but you don't feel this monolithic power you see in the old guys. Compare the Liang performances with a guy a like Bai Yucai, it's looks like a different martial art togheter, or tbe more precise, Bai Yucai's looks like a martial art, this looks like dance or gymnastics.
@@robertocalvo934 this video is titled "Bagua for Beginners". Martial roots, power, speed, fa jing, stances, martial applications are developed and expressed over time, based on the goal of the practitioner. This instruction is not a tournament demonstration, it is designed for a total beginner to begin learning; might be too simplified for your advanced level.
@@Ymaa_Publication_Center I'm not an advanced practicioner just an amateur and it's far from my intention to diminish the quality of the Liang family arts. I'm not qualified to judge, just saying that visually, the Liang performances always seem disconvoluted, to lack something. And the key thing here is "visually" which, at the end of the day it doesn't matter, as the real thing is martial arts is physical contact, and I'm pretty sure the Liang masters are all very strong
Это не выглядит как настоящее багуачжан. У человека на видео спортивная подготовка и полностью отсутсвует базовый шаг.
Upper body angle is insufficient. Rear heel lifts, and foot turns which is a sport Bagua modification. If the master was European, all this would be immediately obvious.
連蹚泥步都走不穩
Air bending.
Good one.
gentle fist
No disrespect to the talent but his knees may not last long with that stepping and spinning
The stepping and spinning might actually good for the knees tho, It's like sitting on the air but also moving. I think it's also gonna improve your balance and flexibility

Hello, Your steps / stride are too long , and your eyes and hands should arrive at the same time.
Peace
I wish we could avoid the pseudoscience but otherwise cool.
this inspired airbender lol
PS: Hung Gar inspired Earthbending
Nothern Shaolin inspired firebending
Tai Chi Chuan inspired Waterbend
Sloppy
hard to tell, but it could just be the way his body adapted to the form.
@@dahirousy7472 its not hard to tell if u know what ur doing
John Lewis while I don’t care to insult anyone, and I have my opinions about the way their school moves in general. I don’t know their style. And can’t comment on it. If he can make sense of it, if he can apply it, nothing else matters.
@@swimmingmantis22 trust me he can't apply it,he can put on a good show and take ur money
horrible performance
this is Li Tianji Baguagzhan, not Éméi
Chenhan Yang is disciple and son in law of Liang Shou-Yu, who grew up and trained on Emei Mountain since age 5, and who introduced Emei arts to the West. The forms are accurate.
@@Ymaa_Publication_Center I know from whom and where he studied, but this is not an Emey baguazhan, this is Li Tianji Baguagzhan. Сall correctly !:)
"The forms are accurate"...... :) no strength, bad step, elbows not lowered, lower back not twisted and so on.
nice, how to contact you? have telegram?
