- Bagua Zhang - A Traditional Chinese Martial Art (1980's Docu) - ENG SUB
This documentary was produced in approximately 1986 in Beijing and features many of the prominent lineages/styles and practitioners. It portrays the methods and characteristics of these styles as they were existent in Beijing.
I have added English subtitles to and relevant information to this documentary. This version's video quality is not ideal and it has proven quite difficult to locate a better quality copy in full, even when I contacted some of my own Bagua family members that were featured in this documentary. Nonetheless, is a valuable piece of history and now accessible to non-Chinese speakers.
If I locate a better quality copy of this documentary, I will re-release it with the translation.
As always, doing this type of translation and editing is time consuming and difficult, so any and all support you are able to give me through Patreon makes this worthwhile of my time and skills and will enable me to produce more such content into the future.

Videos can be important documents, just like books. You do a service in translating this. Thanks.
Very true!
All of those old footage restorers putting old footage in 4k, might one to pick this beloved classic up.
I am lucky enough to study fan style Bagua Zhang open palm, the name of the lady in English translation is auntie Fan is there any information on her style please? Thank you very much, i have shared this with my master in the UK as i am enjoying on where this art came from and how it was formed.
Hi there. Who is your teacher if I may ask?
@@MuShinMartialCulture i know him as Barney
@@fungusv375 You should look up Phil Morrel, he is a Fan practitioner there
@@MuShinMartialCulture that's barney mentor, i know Phil went to China to learn fan I wondered if it would be in these series?
The Cheng style is something else. Thank you for showing rare footages of actual applications, they are incredibly raw and beautiful.
You are welcome
something else as in probably the worst one? yes
@@archonofvoid lol
This is my style of choice. I'd love nothing more than to find a school in China that teaches Baguazhang. The use of chin na combined with the back and forth walking as well as small circle walking lends itself very well to wrestling
Where in China are you?
@@MuShinMartialCulture I haven't been to China yet. I plan to visit in a few years once covid clears and I learn Mandarin. I was planning on going to Hubei at or around Wudang Mountain to learn. I am also aware that it is very popular in Beijing and that there are a few different styles taught there. Do you know of anywhere I could train?

Love this old documentaries!! thank you and greetings from Chile!
Very welcome
what a great register, thank you for sharing! cheers from brazil
My pleasure
Fantastic! Such a great system
Indeed!
Excellent! Thank you so much for the english subtitles!
My pleasure
Worthy of saving and disseminating, indeed. Thanks a lot for sharing.
You are welcome!!
Nice to see Liu Xing Han at 1:59. I was wondering why he (or any of his students really) wasn't in the Historic Gathering videos....
There were a few families that didn't participate. For example, many people from my Liang family didn't either
@@MuShinMartialCulture the positive to all of that is we saw some Bagua stylizations that aren't seen very often at least in the mainstream, or at the least I wasn't aware of them.
Love that throw at the end.
Indeed
Good stuff!
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing the video. I just started my bagua training.
Good to hear it. You are welcome
😍👍
Too bad it doesn't have Portuguese subtitles...🙏🙏🙏
Unfortunately not
This is the best video yet that I have seen on bagua Zhang. A long time ago I read a description of it and was intrigued by it ever since. However I could find nothing about it in books or videos. I am a huge fan of the book of changes and have 4 different translations of it. I also have the analects of Confucius, Tao te ching, the book of Mencius,and several about Daoism. Plus I have a book on ancient Chinese philosophy. I am very interested about developing Qi internal power. The best thing about this video is that it showed the practical self defense applications of bagua Zhang. I live near Atlanta Georgia USA but can't seem to locate anybody who teaches it here.
Glad you liked the video. I do have an online learning program if you arent able to find a teacher. There are already a many lessons available in the library with new videos every week.
It is the "Hua Jin" tier:

@@MuShinMartialCulture Thank you sir. You are a gentleman and a scholar And a man of good character.
Somewhere along the way the fighting art has turned into a dance
Depends on who is doing it though
Some thing seems to have changed.when we constantly see so called Chinese boxing masters being humiliated by mma fighters. Back in 1900.the empress body guards would have killed them with one blow many years ago I was taught the iron palm system and won many fights with a block or one or two blows I love to watch the forms but where has the win a fight with one blow gone
@@robertcrowther8202 I think you may want to watch the interviews I did with Xu Xiaodong to get some insight into the most visible matches you mentioned above. The reality is most of the guys going out to challenge the MMA guys etc are simply deluded fools, frauds or both.
I remember years ago seeing a film of a aikido master with a line up of karate black belts he threw each one down and mimed a blow on them they went all out no pretending to kick and punch him but he put them all out of action also I remember a okinowen karate master who had won every challenge with out striking a blow just using a block to break a leg or arm I'd like to see a boxing master showing the same skills not dancing or walking in circles
