Kurzbeschreibung
One of the three major orthodox internal styles of Chinese martial arts (along with Xing Yi Quan and Tai Ji Quan), Bagua Zhang (or Ba Gua Zhang) is also one of the most ancient and revered. The first volume in a series of two on the form, Liu Bin’s Zhuang Gong Bagua Zhang, Volume One, is written from the perspective of a wise master who gives equal attention to Bagua’s historical evolution and to the art and practice itself. A disciple of famous master Liu Xing Han and one who honed his skills for over 20 years under the same trees in Temple of Heaven Park as the originators of Bagua, Professor Zhang Jie is ideally suited for the task. He presents the fundamental theories of Bagua simply and clearly, in such a way that they comprise both a martial arts manual and a guide for everyday living. The idea of balance in all things is stressed throughout, as is the ancient Chinese philosophy that underlies Bagua. In addition to illustrations of the Bagua movements, the book contains previously unpublished historical photographs. Equally useful for novice and seasoned practitioners, as well as students of Chinese culture and history, Liu Bin’s Zhuang Gong Bagua Zhang immerses readers in all aspects of this important martial art.
Synopsis
As Zheng states in his book, 'Bagua is not just one of the best martial arts, Bagua is very closely related to the main part of Chinese culture". The first volume of a series on this important form, "Liu Bin's Zhuong Gong Bagua Zhang" is written from the perspective of a wise master who gives equal attention to the history that is directly responsible to Bagua's evolution as to the art and practice of Bagua itself. From his own personal experiences growing up in China, including being a student during the Chinese Cultural Revolution, to the history of the first practitioners of Bagua, the information here forms an enriching tapestry that fully immerses the reader in all aspects of this important martial art.In addition to a practical manual, the fundamental theories of Bagua are presented in such a way as to function simultaneously as a guide for everyday living. The idea of balance in all things is a topic stressed time and time again. Chinese philosophy in general is given high importance with quotes from Lao Tzu and Confucius being employed as a 'useful way to lead you to a real understanding of the great hall of Chinese culture'.This book contains everything the Bagua Zhang practitioner could want and is written by a master who was more immersed in the culture than any Western practitioner could ever be. For Professor Zhang, the history of Bagua wasn't something to be learned from already-published researched on the subject but learned at the feet of a 4th generation master and others whom he visited during the writing of this book. In addition to practical illustrations of the Bagua movements, this book contains historical photographs that have never been published before.

A philosophical and historical review on one of the advanced forms of Chinese internal martial arts
27. August 2008
Format:Taschenbuch
Baguazhang is one of the three major styles of Chinese internal martial arts (the other two being Taichi Quan and Xingyi Quan). I love this book because it not only shows the reader the forms and moves of Baguanzhang, but also tells a fascinating story behind the origin and development of the martial arts. Dr. Zhang Jie took this uniquely philosophical and historical approach to martial arts for he has a broad and deep understanding of the Chinese culture and philosophy. He obtained his bachelor degree in Chinese Literature from Peking University and his master degree from the Chiense Academy of Arts. Therefore this book presents to its readers something more than just the physical aspect of Baguazhang, like most other book do; it explains and interprets the metaphysical meaning of Baguazhang, which is just as intriguing, if not more, as the physical moves.
On the other hand, as an authentic fifth generation successor of the Beijing South District Baguazhang branch, Dr. Zhang's sequences (kata) are beautiful and true to the origin. It took him years of research, including numerous visits to the surviving old masters in Beijing, to collect in this book many sequences that cannot be found anywhere else. For the readers who are interested in learning the martial arts itself, this book is a good starting point. For advanced practitioners, this book might add to their existing knowledge and ability.

This is an excellent first book on Ba Gua. The authors clearly have a sincere and humble approach to the subject,backed with obvious mastery.A great book for the beginner or experienced artist.The chi gong and chilin forms,with the single palm change are a welcome addition to one's knowledge.Overall a brilliant start which augers well for the follow up book(s).Let's hope the second book is not long coming.

Interesting Bagua Book
26. November 2009
Format:Taschenbuch
This book was an enjoyable read for a Bagua enthusiast. I doubt anyone who doesn't practice Baguazhang would like it. The history and stories were entertaining and I enjoyed the pictures from the old days. The forms presented in the book were foundational forms that would make a good introduction to the Baguazhang body method. I would have like to have seen more realistic combat, but that's possibly just me. Overall, I would recommend it to any Baguazhang practitioners out there who like to read about their art.
