Just a reminder to all those living here in Perth: my xingyi (hsing i) workshop is next Sunday!

Come along and sample this very rare art (and an even rarer variant - among the oldest) as researched by the late, great Chen Pan Ling.

Discover a completely different way of moving and utilising the power of the vertical circle to deflect and (turning your opponent's force against him/her), split, crush, drill, pound, and cross/hook.

This is an art that is more about "principle" than technique, so adherents of other martial arts can take away some of these principles and apply them in their own techniques.
