    When doing the basic kou bu/bai bu it’s important to also mention that the hips should be opening (bai bu) and closing (kou bu) in unison with movements. If you simply twist at the knees you will damage them.

      wdym by opening and closing of the hips?

    • @markdonovan1540
      @markdonovan1540 3 роки тому +18

      @@Poemsforpisces ok, the hip joint opens to facilitate the turning of the leg which ensures the knee stays aligned with the ankle and hip bone part of the pelvis. This opening of hips requires a release of tension so that the groin area of the hip folds open or folds closed - as if opening and closing a book. It's not easy to explain, it requires a bit if awareness and practice. What people, especially beginners, often do is allow the knee to turn inward relative to the foot and ankle, which will put excess strain on knee ligaments. Over time this would likely lead to knee damage.
      Try to think of the ball and socket joint of the hip as a gate that swings open and closed, with the thigh, knee, ankle and foot all aligned below the point of rotation. The same applies to the outward rotation (or opening), care must be taken not to twist the knee. You need to rotate outwardly (opening) in the hip on the side of leg that is turning outward and rotate inwardly (closing) of the side of the leg that is turning inward.
      The ball and socket joint of the hip doesn't just open and close like a gate, because it can rotate in many directions, but in this stepping movement we are only getting the hip to open and close along a vertical axis. The knee can bend in line with this vertical axis, as knee joint is perfectly designed for bending inline with thighs and shins. The knee joint is not designed to twist against the line of the thigh and shin bones. Some twisting tension will occur in the knee joint if you allow knee joint to collapse/buckle inwards while turning the leg in, or if you allow the knee to push outward while turning leg outward. Twisting the knee joint will eventually cause damage, unless you take care of these movements and do exercises to strengthen knee ligaments.
      I hope this helps.

      @@Poemsforpisces I'm glad you found it helpful. I've never learnt Baguazhang, although I find it interesting. However, I've been fortunate to have found a couple of excellent Taiji teachers over the years, so I am aware of some of the mechanics and energetics of the internal arts. I still consider myself a beginner in many aspects, so I still need to learn from others, as we all do. But the hard work of practice is something each one of us has to do for ourselves. It's important to do two things: start and continue. That's what my old Taiji teacher used to say. Unfortunately, I failed to continue after starting with a lot of enthusiasm. However, in recent years I have picked it up again, but it's almost like starting from the beginning again.

    Excellent instruction that anyone should be able to follow. I have never learnt Bagua, but this video might help me to at least get a feel for it. I have done a fair bit of Judo, Kung Fu and Taiji. However, this is quite different, although I can see it has a lot in common with Taiji principles. Most baguazhang videos go straight into the circling forms, without any basic foundation preparation, so this video definitely helps prepare a good foundation.

I've been wanting to learn bagua zhang for a few years now because I think it would be ideal for helping me heal my body and start getting back into shape. And, let's be perfectly honest here, I would not have discovered it if not for Avatar: The Last Airbender.
