Old Form 5 Roots. 5 Tang Zha Shi. Dai Family Xin Yi Chuan (Part 2)

Five Roots Switching Powers. This is the most complex form in Dai Family Xin Yi “root“ actually starts and stops. Basics are shown such as chopping fist, cannon punch. Dropping fist all adding up to the movements of Pi, Ben, Jian, Pao, & Heng. Though in some senses just the equivalent of the Five Elements Fist the nature of the style dictates a more complex series of actions, many of which are retreating. Note that they placed this section in the middle of their series. This is a triple VCD. No breakdowns but explicit instruction. The Dai brothers were in the vegetable wholesale business, and did not publicly teach to others outside their family. However, after many years of keeping the art within the family, Dai Long Bang’s son Dai Wenxiong accepted Li Luoneng as a student, who went on to become a very famous martial artist, and a popularizer of the art. It was Li Luoneng who modified Xinyi and called it Xingyi. #chinesemartialarts #xingyiquan #wushu
