Pa Kua Chuan / Ba Gua Chuan
China Hand Kung Fu Academy teaches the Traditional Style Pa Kua Chuan. Included in our Pa Kua system is:
Like many other styles of kung fu, Pa Kua has several different pronunciations: Pa Kua, Pa Kua Chuan, Pa Kua Chang, Ba Gua, Ba Gua Zhang, Ba Gua Quan. No matter how you say it, it is still all the same...Pa Kua. Also, like many other styles, Pa Kua has many influences depending in the teacher and their background. As in all internal martial art's, pick a style, stay with it as the concepts should follow regardless of who's style you do. Pa Kua was was founded by Dong Hai Chuan (1798 - 1879) in northern China, though many might argue differently, the most reliable information is Dong Hai Chuan did found Pa Kua. Pa Kua, like the other internal martial arts of Tai Chi and Hsing Yi, has three main components to it: martial, health, and performance. Though it is not as popular a style as Tai Chi, it is growing. Pa Kua is the youngest of the three internal arts and considered and is a companion system to Hsing Yi and Tai Chi. Pa Kua traditionally was taught as a advanced system, meaning you had to have other kung fu experience in order to learn Pa Kua. This eliminated the need to teach basic kung fu skills to the student who was already familiar with martial skills. Today, you can learn Pa Kua having no knowledge of any kung fu or martial art. All you need is a good teacher and the will to want to learn. Pa Kua traditionally didn't have weapons. Though as time has gone on, many have incorporated weapons training into their Pa Kua systems. This applies to the bare hand techniques too. For more information on any of the above topics, click on the button to the right.
