SEMINAR DETAILS
This is a 2-day event, 4 hours training each, with 1 hr lunch break in between. This seminar will be very much application and 八極拳Bajiquan bio-mechanic refinement focused. That means you will learn about the unique 李書文 Li Shu-Wen lineage's Bajiquan body structure, how it moves and combat approach by doing lots of drills and 2-men practices. We will be learning a short form 八極架 BajiJia as the base to learn its applications. BajiJia is the simplified version of 小八極 XiaoBaji that was designed by Grandmaster 劉雲樵 Liu Yun-Qiao in the early 1980s during the time when XiaoBaji was only allowed to be taught to the presidential guards. and Baji Jia was created to teach Wu Tan students and civilians. Baji Jia contains 75% of what XiaoBaji has to offer, and I think BajiJia is a great material to train in a seminar setting. All martial arts enthusiasts at all-levels are welcomed.
