Every style is good. It depends on how smart you are. Everybody can train hard but very few are smart to know when and how to use it in real situations.
Really appreciate this post! Right on
Totally agree
Ti help spread this wonderful message to all those carpenters who complain about their tools.
and that's why you train, so your muscles can remember the movement without having to consciously think about it.
you must practice for real life self defence situations, it means not practicing defense from martial arts attacks, but from how a thug would attack you on the street
As a practitioner of Matsubayashi-Ryu from Okinawa and the southern Italian martial art "Paranza / Sicilian stick fighting" I am fascinated by these beautiful Chinese martial arts ... there is actually a deep connection between Chinese Wushu systems and Okinawan karate ...
well okinawan 'masters' paid their tuition @ fujian and brought the art back to their homeland
I read about paranza and was quite fascinated by what I read and saw. Wish there was something like that in my area 😉
I love application videos, especially when it's about a martial art I didn't know much. I discovered Bajiquan last year completely by chance, and from what I've seen and heard about it, it's a very interesting and powerful system.
Hi Neldolas, yes, Bajiquan is not as well-known as some other martial arts... but it has much to offer. Thanks for watching.
Neldolas yes, and it was used by chinese special force and even NATO
An Wushu Kung Fu many of the Chinese Emperors and their bodyguards were usually Baji practitioners! But yes, it’s not popular as other Kung Fu styles, but it’s more effective than people know! I would like to come and learn it, after I trained so many years at Shaolin Henan Temple.
@@cristinelgheorghiu5294 Hi Cristinel. Sorry, we missed this comment somehow! In the future when it's easier to travel here, you are very welcome
I'm very happy with this video! Thank you for sharing! The only two things I would like to see more of are 1.) variations on a technique when the sequence doesn't work out and 2.) how to handle a resisting opponent. For example, When trying to execute the throw (~3:30), there are numerous ways to attempt to stop or hinder the throw (getting the elbow behind thrower's shoulder, turning the stance/shifting weight, etc.) and knowing how to handle these situations makes the difference between practice and handling a live opponent. Over my 20 years of martial arts study I've learned that if my technique doesn't work against a real opponent, it's my lack of understanding the technique (when to use it, how to apply it properly, why it's useful, and what comes next). I know you discuss the need to continue, which is important, but it's not good to abandon good basic principles (which, sadly, seems to happen to a lot of fighters once the fight goes in an unexpected direction).
I really want to see this guy in a ring with the kungfu mythbuster dude. I think this guy have a shot.
Why in the ring, why not just in the street? Real combat is in the street not in a ring
Yes real combat is in the street
@@watersports1381 in the ring when the fight over, you're done. In the street when the fight over someone might end up dead. Or the winner might get shot. Or go to jail for killing someone.
So yeah the ring is better choice
Something about the baji guys I've seen. There is a spark there of something I can't quite articulate.
@@Seantorky3 he def got the juice but the move are too compassionate compare to MMA where they trained to knock you they FUCK OUT in 30s.
Very good instructions and even better fighting applications. All the respect for you Shifu from a Shaolin disciple. Your English is also. Many of the Chinese Emperors were Bajji practitioners. The art is very real and powerful combat. You haters stop criticizing the traditional martial artists. Let me see how many of you can go and challenge him in a fight without rules?... where is your School located Shifu? Happy New Year!... train harder, trust your Master and more important believe in it or otherwise it will never work ! Respect
Thank you very much. Don't worry, we will never stop practicing Bajiquan! We are in Shanghai.
Great video, great apliplications. I study Okinawan Tode (karate) my style is Kenshin Ryu of Master Akamine Shikan. Our lineage is family with chinese kung fu Baji Quan ( PaChi Chuan). Sorry for my bad english. Thanks for sharing, and chers from Chile, Sudamerica.
Mauricio Vega Rodríguez Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video. Always nice to hear about their Baji schools; there are far too few.
"Don't think about too much just continue fighting naturally"
This guy's had his share of street fights
being a practioner of martial arts and the Li shu wen lineage of bajiquan I am still learning from watching your style.
Thank you for your consideration in making this video as I have learned from you. Best wishes to you from Ireland.
That was just dynamically epic, so fluid and agressive.
打得真是太棒了
簡直是藝術
你瞎吗?!
@@user-steven2022 哇喔好久以前的留言了，那時候其實看得不多啦，可能不是很了解才會覺得不錯
請問有沒有更好的可以推薦呢～
Shifu Amazing ! Your Skill is hen da !
love your baji and fajin !
very big compliment ! I think your are a great teacher !
The more mass the more power, Bajiquan is for people with bigger body mass as most attacks are close distance.
very good video
Can u show changquan
Yes, one day. The An Wushu includes a fair bit of Chang Quan.
非常棒
Breathing breathing... Relax, relax! :-)
Master jian qiu i deduzed,sorry my wrong in letters,oss
Hi.
Umm... is this bagua ? Im kinda confused... but nice video and good applications :)
This is baji quan; a different art
different; bagua=8 trigrams; baji=8 ultimates, 8 directions, 8 poles, 8 co-ordinates, symbolizing very far, far in application
Jet li fight style training is like that?
음~ 잘 봤습니다. 이제 실전에서 증명해 주세요

Everyone gangsters still they gots punch in the face Iron Mike
Very Interesting.
Woahh u are amazing! :0
I knew this style of Kungfu from Japanese manga "Kenji". Very detailed and a lot of history in that manga. Pajiquan is one of the most powerful defensive martial art, it's really very underrated unlike wingchun. I heard that Pajiquan was used by Presidential bodyguards at the time.
Yes, it was, and is still used like this in Taiwan (last I heard).
Bajiquan
Kenji is how I found out about Bajiquan actually. That manga brought a great deal of detail on so many legit martial arts systems and had many real and respected teachers as characters. Loved it for the most part. :)
i like to see the stances utilized for full body power while the arms are relaxed using "soft" striking power... that is really what true kung fu is about.. this is found in both the Northern Shaolin and Wing Chun from the south that I practice.. Bajiquan reminds me of the dynamic power of Shaolin with the Fa Jin.. of Chen Tai Chi...Awesome video Sifu!
keeping the body tense will tire you down even before the fight
I really liked this style. I've seen this moves in virtua fighter and bloody roar 2 by long and shenlong. I used to do it practicing
How I wish I have the opportunity to learn from you. I am a father of 2 kids, worked 12 hours a day, teach the kids at night, bring them to classes on the weekends and sleep 4 hours a day. Plus, I live in the other side of the earth. I'll keep watching your videos, though. Thanks for uploading and keep it up!
Hi Toby. Thank you for your kind words. I understand! We will maybe offer videos/online teaching (Skype) in the future, as there are many people like you who are dedicated but cannot come to China easily. Please send an email to learnkungfu AT anwushuchina.com if you would like to be notified about this. All the best to you and your kids. Peace & Respect from An Wushu
which country you in?
Are there people with only 4 to five hours a day?????
What is the secret?
I need 8 hours somehow:(
I would Der what Chinese traditional Medicine knows about this!
Congratulation to Baji master and to you. With only 4 hours a day!!!Dear Lord!!!
This is a very, very good Shifu in regards of Traditional Chinese Martial Arts.
When old stuff is explained in the context of "new", then you know the teacher is a good one.
How much will it cost to bring you to America for a seminar for a few days near Washington D.C.?
Thank you, Michael! An Shifu would love to teach in the USA. Please send us an email to learnkungfu@anwushuchina.com
Oh I love application videos
Thank you!
SOUP, SOUP, SAUCE, SHEEP! SOUP, SPATE, STEAK!
Hahahaha, yes, we laughed very hard at this - when you grow up training this way (and speaking Chinese), you don't realise quite how it sounds. But it is a MUST to generate power!
😂😂😂
Thank you Shifu for being so informative and giving real world examples, making this demo very relevant to actual fighting skill. Please keep taking the time to put out these quality videos.
Thank you :) We are moving the school right now! When we are set up, we will begin to make videos again.
I like your chi flow movements with your Baji Quan. You also use the Baji Stomp along with foward movement with simultaneous blows to generate the Baji power. I learned some Baji from the late Sifu David Schenk of Wutan Ohio.
Thank you... glad you are enjoying the videos and were able to learn some Baji. I'm not familiar with that teacher, but am sorry for his passing. All the best.
@@AnWushuKungFu He was a student of Tony Yang. Tony Yang was a student of Liu Yun Qiao(sp), student of Lu Shu Wen.
@@rodgerbane3825 Thank you for letting us know.
Looks good from where I am standing 😊
We love to learn from you sifu 👺
Looks good to me 😁
can you use this in MMA ?
Absolutely!
I cant count how many times i watch this while practice what i know along with bit of baji quan application. Addition to the mindset, following through movement without hesitation in combat. Much appreciation!
Great to hear :)
An Wushu Kung Fu thank you Sifu!
Sifu, is Wushu street applicable?
It depends on the style, instructor, and training method. This video is just a demonstration for UA-cam, the real training for this movement would be perfecting the form, then many repetitions in the Sanda gym. Thanks for your comment!
Thanks man, I wish i knew you when I was 20 years old. Peace
thank you for this video! Davide from Italy.
Thank you :)
I can only hope to achieve this level in my own practice some day. Outstanding, very powerful.
You can do it! Understand the principles within your style's basics and train very hard.
How is this related to Rou Quan and Xing Yi? I think its better to first learn Xing Yi for me. To make the transitions easier from Yang tai chi. Ba Ji Quan seems too difficult for now, but i do wanna go faster than my current Yang Tai Chi practice.
There are definitely some similarities between Bajiquan and Xingyiquan and/or Rou Quan, such as Shaolin roots... but that's quite a broad question - hard to answer! As for what to learn, it's hard to say without knowing you, but there are people in their 60's and 70's who start Bajiquan here in Dezhou, China; just with much higher stances, gentler stretching, push-ups against the wall instead of on the concrete, and so on...
@@AnWushuKungFuAwesome! Thanks for the reply. I guess the best way to proceed it pick a random sequence, break it down into the seperate movements, learn it and THEN go on to the next.
And maybe visit Asia sometime in my life. 👍🏻
It's very hard - probably impossible! - to really pick up the foundations of gongfu via watching videos; the shapes of the movements are (generally) quite simple, and it's the internals that give any form of gongfu its essence... but(!), in terms of building the body, practicing the movements will certainly be helpful, until you can find a teacher :)
@@AnWushuKungFuI agree! I have been very lucky to have met amazing teacher in 2020. He taught me Qi Gong, philosophy and Yang style Tai Chi. Including focusing on the Tai Chi classics! He retired now, but we still hang out and watch Kung Fu movies together. Yes, our relationship is much like Karate Kid. 🥰We also have a third, a common friend, who has his own Tai Chi school. Together we rehearsed Xi Yang Mei. If you wanna check it out, I soon will make our video public on my channel!
These techniques seems very good to use in very close distances. Was Baji Quan created targeting very close fight?
That's right!
Been watching your Baji vids for a while I must say your Baji moves look a bit stylish compared to other baji branches like Wu, Wutan or Lu Baochun, why is this? is it a different method of techniques? Not saying it's a bad thing but it's quite fascinating to look at.
Hi Sony95, thanks for your question. The simple answer is that the An Family value not only health, combat effectiveness, etc, but also performance: sharing the amazing culture of Chinese Wushu with others! An Shifu has spoken to us many times about the importance of evoking a strong emotional reaction in someone watching when you perform. So, the forms are purposefully practiced in such a way that they will be enjoyable to watch. The jibengong (foundational methods), applications, and other parts of the system, are NOT practiced in this way, so that An Family Wushu is still effective.
That breathing technique with each strike tho.
Me encanta ese fajin tan potente que tiene usted, ahí hay mucho trabajo, gracias. 🙏☯️
Gracias!
that's a sneaky one right before that throw... the misdirection is brilliant.
Thank you :) Glad you are enjoying the video!
Never been a fan of his execution doing Xing Yi forms, because of a few tecnicalities. But, these Baji apps are good. I'll check and see if he has Xing Yi application videos posted, though. Good intensity, just not my flavor in regards to the movement when he's doing XY. Well, I guess that's because of fam/clan differences. Very cool applications. Like the guy below, says: maybe he is a finisher if he fights a Xu Xiaodong type. These are real kung fu applications, not that crusty movie shit you see others doing and getting clobbered for it.
Thanks, we appreciate it :) Yes, you are right with regards to the Xingyi. In An family system, it can be considered 50/50 external/internal, whereas most modern Xingyi is far more internal than that. We don't have any Xingyi apps up on the channel yet, I don't think, but there are some old Taiji vids if you'd like to see An Shifu performing some softer stuff.
@@AnWushuKungFu XingYi in my family is not soft, its executed very intensely. When my teacher taught Tai Chi , the forms were taught with the flow we see in most Tai Chi schools, but the applications were brutally executed, also. I think he taught Wu family Tai Chi.
I dont get why people think that if an art isinternal, it's a substitute for the softest Yoga you can find with very little applications.
I appreciate your attention to people's inquiries and will continue to look forward to seeing some applications by that man when it comes to Xing Yi.
@4:25
What happen?
This seems like it might work on someone lunging at oneself with a knife, what do you think?
i am so shocked by the beauty of your movements
Thank you :) The thanks goes to my father and grandfather for training me!
i wish i could learn this , i live in london and i have desperately been searching for a school that teaches it . i love it
You are welcome any time, Freddie. :) We have had several people from England/the UK come and train here.
Freddie hey, i study kung fu in essex but i know of a few different places where you can learn bajiquan or other internal styles in london. one to consider is bajizhandao.co.uk who i believe are in battersea. he teaches a more modern curriculum titled bajizhandao, it is a combination of traditional bajiquan with tongbeiquan, xingyiquan, taijiquan, and bagua zhang.
another is the tang long martial arts school who teach traditional bajiquan, shaolin quan, taijiquan, and 'sanshou'.
Freddie hi there.
Apologies for not replying sooner. I was actually training in Dezhou with An Shifu when you made it!
Our training group is based in London, and trains Tuesday's and Saturdays in Leicester Square and on Clapham Common respectively. although we train predominantly using material from Lü Baochuns Baji Association, I also have a fairly large amount of material that I was taught by An Shifu which I would be happy to share with you, while you figure out a way to train with him personally.
Please get in touch.
super!!!
Excellent instruction!
Excellent. Authentic.
Verdadero kung fu
Thank you sir great video please make more videos
Thank you! We will.
Hi. Do you have any branches in Jakarta ?
Hi Chendra. Unfortunately we don't, but hopefully one day! If you would ever like to come to China, you are very welcome. Right now we have a 1-Month Intensive coming up: www.anwushuchina.com/chinaworkshop
Hi, the link you provide doesn't work. Do you have any workshops coming up soon? And what's the cost for the workshops? Thanks.
Jakarta ada 2 perguruan yang mengajarkan Bajiquan

Thanks to the master for that splendid demonstration. Best regards from Buenos aires, Argentina.
On the English captions! XDD no offence
Haha! Hilarious. No offense taken, looks like UA-cam is not so good with An Shifu's accent. Better turn them off!
An Wushu Kung Fu YEP! Amazing video though, Keep it up!
Thank you! Glad you are enjoying them.
@@AnWushuKungFu If an English-speaking person speaks Chinese, the standard is worse.
First time viewer - now new subscriber
The founder of Kuk Jin Karate said that martial arts were proven in real fights, not in mouths, and boxing Mike Tyson was beaten and everyone had a good plan until then! Which are you? Can you prove your martial arts with a real fight?
Of course. An Shifu had a Sanda career when he was in his early 20's.
I love this style
Solid, practical. Well done.
i would like to learn Bajiquan
We run a full time kung fu school in China :) You can read more at www.anwushuchina.com
I recommend Wu style, it’s the original style and many things were never taught to outsiders, so if you want a complete system and authentic teaching, that would be the place to look.

As a practitioner of Huo family lineage, the An version of Xiaojia stuns me. So incredibly dynamic, yet ending so suddenly. Such a wonderful demonstration that leaves me pondering that much more the differences between the multiple family lineages of our great Bajiquan.
Is this another Master Wong????
We are not sure who you mean 😁
中国人の英語初めて聞いたけど日本人のカタカナ読みみたい
日本人的英語更差！
Someone has some anger issues
We do Taijiquan too ;) The expression on An Shifu's face is due to Bajiquan utilising the spirit in a certain way to produce its characteristic power. Each style is more than a unique collection of movements: there is a spirit and principle to it.
@@AnWushuKungFu I think he meant that some people commenting were angry, not you, sifu. You are superb.
Pono, If you have, ride on your pony and go
I'll take boxing, muay thai, judo/bjj and greco-roman wrestling over this anyday.. They have withstood the test of time and practical scrutiny.
I'm not saying this won't work, just that.. sparring videos with active, resisting opponents from other arts will earn much more for your credibility.
Yes, you are right on both forms; though to that point, gongfu that has survived to the current day in its classical form is useful in combat too.
Yes, we will have to add more sparring videos, you can see from the comments that a lot of people who watch this video don't realise it's only meant as an example of Baji, not real training in any sense.
Pradal Serey from Cambodia also uses elbow movements, it's interesting
@@AnWushuKungFu I don't mean to be disrespectful, but i highly doubt you will be able to use these techniques you've shown here effectively against a competent thai/western boxer... catching a punching arm, forearm to body.. (too much full body commitment required only for low percentage damage/annoyance).. I'm sure there are other useful techniques in wushu (sanda doesn't count).. i'm sorry but i just don't buy this one. I'm not an expert or anything and if I am wrong, please do correct me though.
But on a wider scale, i do believe that all martial arts have their uses. The way i see it, these punches and kicks and grappling.. they are all tools and it's the training, conditioning and exposure of the fighter to other styles and fighters, that's the most important of all. The simplest tools are, more often than not, the most useful and enduring of all, because it's the training, the conditioning and mentality that makes a good fighter. Give a sickle to a farmer, he'll use it to farm his land, give it to a warrior and he'll use it to kill the enemy. The biggest problem, as i see, with most martial arts training and especially those of Chinese origins are that you guys are too content within your own styles. Instead of making "demonstration videos" over and over again, why not show it off in the ring or something or against, let's say, a properly trained boxer in an UNSCRIPTED, friendly sparring session or something (i felt the need to bold that letter because people tend to do that so much. They'll pay some guy to represent a certain art or pick/gaud a poorly trained fighter to represent his particular art).. I've mentioned this in my original comment as well.
A lot of the times i see Chinese traditional martial artist take to the ring to face boxers/kickboxers/mma, they'll get punch in the face and instantly, their style, reverts to something that somewhat resembles kickboxing or boxing..
@@fela001 Sorry, I thought we replied to this! I absolutely get where you are coming from. An Shifu did in fact have a successful Sanda career, and did use Baji techniques. His opinion is that these techniques are definitely much more difficult to execute than, say, a parry and a punch like you'd see in your examples of boxing/muaythai, but that with a lot of training, it can be done. But, people talking on UA-cam is not useful! We will upload more sparring videos, and you are welcome to visit us in Shanghai and see for yourself :)
不象真功夫。
是的，是殺人的功夫！
Wong Sauming ：那樣的打法，實戰並不好用的，因為敵人的拳頭遠比他們想像的快！！！
Just fantasy, useless. Opponent won't stand still like that for him to hit.
Bc the motions are supposed to be fast. If you read, the video says "application." He's not gonna stand there and actually hurt the person he's demonstrating with. Bajiquan is explosive fast movements, even if your opponent won't just stand there you will hurt them.
Obviously! It's just a video to give people an idea of Bajiquan :)
A shame is all for show, and does not really work.
That would be a shame, however luckily An Shifu also had a succesful Sanda career :)
