Baguazhang is one of the three internal arts along with Tai Chi and Xsingyi.? The art evolved from the mysterious Taoist temples in northern China.
?
Although Bagua is soft like Tai Chi it looks nothing like it in action.? Bagua practitioners constantly circle as they run through their form.? The form is called the Circling Dragon and can be practised slow or fast.? Slow builds the health and fast keeps you fit.
?
?
Bagua can also be used as an effective fighting art and was once taught to the imperial Chinese army as self-defence.? Master Hine has been teaching Bagua for three decades and traces his lineage back to the founder Tung Hai Chan.
?
Take this rare opportunity to spend two hours having fun learning one of the most mysterious internal martial arts, with Master Hine.? June 11, 3.30-5.30pm, Raglan Road School, Bromley, BR2 9NL.
