Develop the Whole-Body Power of Xingyiquan and How to Use It
The image of Xingyiquan is that of a bowling ball driving through bowling pins. The Xingyi fighter is the bowling ball.
The goal of a Xingyi fighter is to take the opponent's ground. You want to be where he is standing when your technique is delivered. You drive through your opponent with committed, whole-body power.
Xingyiquan is an internal art, but just like authentic Taiji and Bagua, there is nothing "soft" about it.
Train the Way Ken Teaches
This curriculum follows the same progression Ken uses with his own students, beginning with foundational body mechanics and building toward advanced forms, applications, and weapons.
Whether you're new to Xingyiquan or looking to deepen your understanding, this curriculum takes you from the fundamental body mechanics of the art through advanced forms, weapons, and practical fighting applications.
Here is what you get with this bundled set of DVDs:
1. Internal Strength - Learn the foundational body mechanics that give Xingyi, Taiji and Bagua their internal power. No mysticism—just practical skills that transform your structure, your movement, and the power you generate.
2. The Five Fist Postures & Applications - a 2-DVD set. Disc one includes detailed instruction on the San Ti stance and the fist postures. Disc 2 takes you into a workshop where Ken teaches the fighting applications of the fist postures.
3. The Five Element Linking Form - a form called "Lien Huan Wu Xing." This form links the Five Elements into one fast-moving, powerful sequence.
4. The Xingyi Staff Form - Learn the Xingyi staff form step by step, along with practical staff-fighting techniques that bring every movement to life.
5. The Xingyi Straight Sword Form - like the staff form DVD, this one teaches you the straight sword (jian) form step-by-step, so you understand not only how to perform the form, but how to use the straight sword effectively.
6. Ba Shih Form - the intermediate form that works different skills and angles with the fist postures, and also gives a hint of the 12-animals to come. Learn the movements and the fighting applications.
7. The 12 Animals of Xingyi - Eleven short forms - one for each animal except number 11, which combines Eagle and Bear. Capture the essence of Dragon, Tiger, Monkey, Horse, Chicken, Harrier (Hawk), Swallow, Water Lizard (Alligator), Chinese Ostrich, Snake, Eagle and Bear. Plus fighting applications for each.
8. The Shi Er Xing Form - Translated to "12 Shapes," this is an advanced form suitable for black belt competition that combines the 12 animals for a fast-paced, explosive set. Also included - fighting applications for every movement in the form - from penetrating strikes to devastating joint locks and effective takedowns.
9. Seven Internal Fighting Strategies - Learn strategies that you can use against various opponents - the physical and mental skills for real-life self-defense as Ken demonstrates with students and with clips from his tournament matches.
