Ba Qua is a very effective art.
Forms are done "walking" in a circle.
plam are used more then a "punch" and any kicks are low .
like said above upseting balance is important.
U will learn effective internal power. In Hsing Yi power is like a canon , in Ba Qua its like a coiled spring . If u lern Ba Qua u should also Lern Hsing Yi if u can. and visa versa.. |

daeinwolf.... i have taken some ninpo taijutsu, and i think that ba gua could help out with the taihenjutsu techniques because of the circular aspects of it. i am told that budo taijutsu and ninpo taijutsu are similiar... so.. theoretically it should help. So give her a try out!

Well, I have decided to take it for a while to see if I really like it. From what I gathered at the first class last night, I enjoyed it a great deal.
Here is the link to the dojo if anyone was curious.

It seems that this instructor has reached a point where he can teach several different arts and be quite arrogant about all of them. Because of this and the fact that he could not answer some of my questions I left.

Yes indeed in my Tai chi chuan school Ba Qua is part of the Black Belt Program. |

i dunno but if this is true really but from what i've encountered they usally start from tai chi but those who wants to learn pa qua usually are taught hsing-i as a prerequisite in the study of pa qua.

hey im in a club called 'shen hsing tao' we practice tai chi chaun, kung fu and ba qua. i was told that ba qua can be used to strengthen our bodies and improve our balance ... everything we do comes together and helps the other arts ... is this a good way to learn ?

i don't see anything wrong with that. what do you intend to achieve or should i say why do you study those? what are the styles of the arts that you mentioned? how well were you able to accommodate each one to fit each other? i hope u can get my question.
