Seminar: Shanxi Xingyi Wu Xing Quan
Shanxi Xingyi Wu Xing Quan - Five Element Fist, consists of: Pi Quan (Hammer fist), Zuan Quan (Drill fist), Beng Quan (Arrow fist), Pao Quan (Cannon fist), and Heng Quan (Side fist).
Xingyi Quan is internal boxing, and Shanxi style uses a more compact posture in expressing the ebb and flow of Qi. Dachengquan (Yiquan) is the esssence of Xingyi without the forms. Grandmaster Wang studied Xingyi with Grandmaster Li Tai Liang so that he would have a deeper understanding of Dachengquan as a derivative art.
