Cheers from Australia ! Very good performance indeed ! I practice a similar style of Bagua, not identical but some postures are quite recognisable. Liked the way you fill your body with constant non-muscular force, and esp. that you're not breaking its flow in transitions (which a lot of Bagua folks do, including me). All three limbs go out together, which shows long practice. The only thing to mention, if you don't mind, is that your arms not always start their movement from the root joints, only sometimes, but palms move with shoulders remaining static. That way you disconnect from the spinal force for a short while. Also, a miniscule remark -- you do have the energy from feet to Bai Hui, it shows, but if you try to gently extend your forehead rather than chin then the back of the neck would extend even better. Otherwise your performance has just inspired me to go out and practice more, too ! Thanks and good luck.

Thanks for the feedback & helpful observations. Since this was posted (2 yr ago), these are exactly the things I've been working on.

Very impressive. You must have gone a long way, and had learnt from a great master.

Thanks for the kind words. The further you go, the more you realize how much more there is yet to learn. My teacher, Andrea Falk has an incredible depth of experience. Her memoir of training in Beijing in the 1980's will be published soon: www.thewushucentre.ca/book-translations/beijing-bittersweet.html

I have videos on the Jiang Palm Changes on my class site: eastmountain.ca/learning.html#bagua. I cycle through lessons to cover all eight, posting lessons on a weekly basis. Right now Change 4 & 5 are posted!

I would like to learn this circle walk to supplement my tai chi and support my meditation.

I've found it to be a useful complement to my tai chi practice & as a moving meditation. If interested, you can check out my course: east-mountain.coursify.me/courses/bagua-8-postures-8-techniques

What you're describing is just one of many styles of circle walking. Yin style, for example, doesn't use the "muddy stepping" at all, yet remains a legit Baguazhang.

Thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately I haven't had the opportunity to learn liuhe bafa.

No offense but I’d like to know what dong hai chuan knew and not one of his disciples. None of them seemed to have passed on the essence. These are just movements you are dancing.

Yes, it is easy to misjudge bagua because of the 'flowery' quality of the movements. I mention this in my video kzread.info/dash/bejne/iptno9uymsa9iKw.html. I don't think being suspicious of what was taught or not taught, learnt or not learnt is as useful as studying the dance to learn its essence.

I would love it if you could do a video on the transitions from standing to different crouching positions or from crouching to jumps. These videos help me alot. Thank you
