  • In today's episode we visit the Song Family home in Taigu to talk to the head of the family, Song Guang Hua about the internal aspects of Song Family Xingyi Quan, and his son also gives a demonstration and explanation of Yin Yang theory and how it pertains to Pi Quan.
    In this series, I team up with Paul Andrews of Xingyi Academy and Jon Nicklin to travel to Tianjin, Shanxi and Henan to explore the various styles of the art of Xingyi Quan. We will cover the Hebei Style of Li Cun Yi, Song and Che Family Xingyi in Taigu, Dai Style Xinyi in Qi County and Muslim Xinyi Liuhe in Henan Province.

    "Qi Jing Ba Mai" refers to the 8 Extraordinary Meridians (Extra Meridians), which are Chong Mai, Ren Mai, Du Mai, Dai Mai, Yang Qiao Mai, Yin Qiao Mai, Yang Wei Mai and Yin Wei Mai. They are the first energy channels that are formed in a living person, starting with Chong Mai. In healing, they are treated with respect and not opened up frequently because the kind of healing they generate can be very powerful. Unless the pulse indicates a problem with the channel along with physical, emotional or mental problems, and if you don't have a competent teacher/healer, you should not play around with those things. It seems though that you are learning from some really great teachers, so keep up the good work and enjoy! 😁

    Anyone else notice normal length pole arms? Most martial arts places have very short pole arms. Maybe they work in urban areas, but pole arms were generally meant to be used in open areas where the reach gave an advantage.

      Forgive the ignorance, but are you talking about 6.5 ft poles as "normal" because I thought that was a Fujian/southern standard where as "up north" they'd be much longer. ???

    It is not just a change from upward to downward in the technique of pushing! It is a change in the quality of the energy, from yin to yang or from yang to yin. That is what the younger Song family member tried to show.

    • @MonkeyStealsPeach
      @MonkeyStealsPeach  4 роки тому +1

      In this case, Yin means the chest and Yang the back. Yin also means upwards and Yang downwards. So its about the direction of power and where that power is generated from. When you combine them together its just the direction of force changing within a movement.

    • @TrollBot-dv1rk
      @TrollBot-dv1rk 4 роки тому

      Its confusing cause they don't really get it. People like this just talk and theorize, they can't fight. I've met too many in the Kung Fu world. They can't perform the actions so they theorize. Jiu Jitsu is the best sandbox to really understand what they are trying to explain. You could learn what they are trying to get at by years of hard sparring too but you would most likely end up brain damaged before you get there.

    Chinese logic was always very hard to understand, for me - and I lived there for 13 yrs and had a Chinese family - so I can kind of understand why the song family classify power as yin or Yang, but my god that's one hell of a complicated way of thinking (when you throw animals in there too) 🙂

    At 13:08 master Song make a reference to qijing bamai, translated as "7 meridian and 8 channel". I would suggest a more accurate translation as "eight extraordinary vessels" 奇經八脈, a well known term in Chinese medicine. By the way, thanks for the great work you're doing.
