      That is backward. You DMF. There is no comparison! That is just a fantasy. But this skill is real. Sell your video games. Quit hiding from life. Find a gym and start bending iron. Then make yourself a good student. Study kung fu. It is hard, difficult. But the rewards are many.
      Peace.

    nicely done.
    it's interesting how differences can occur w bagua, I practice a similar style, Liu Bin from Beijing, through Zhang jie. some of the movement patterns are very similar, other's quite a bit different. but the fundamental moves are clearly very similar, especially the off axis and spine turning movements. our method is done very smoothly, less of Fa when compared these palms (thought ours is done w more fa in other forms of the style)
    thanks for posting.

      The footwork has as main goal to turn the practitioner an untouchable target in the same time that the practitioner can move enough for to face many oponents.
      Also the constant practice improves your stamina and cardio.

Also, i am reminded and humbled that more training and understanding can be garnered through practice by your exhibition. Truly potent in its beauty.
    Thank you.

    @nhankhuu5643 5 лет назад +6

    Bro I'm impressed. You know how to keep balance when exerting force. You don't over extend. Your movement are smooth, flexible and explosive. You understand where the force is suppose to come from. The only thing i would say is that your trap hands are a bit confusing. When you go for trap and elbows you need to flesh out the limbs you are bridging and your impact point otherwise your techniques application will fail. Great work. I don't practice your style but you do it so well I can tell it's good.
