Answer 3

Bagua or Bagua Zhang is an internal Northern Chinese art.

There are eight circles. Each circle contains a form or series of techniques that can be either used as the palm is performed or broken down into each individual movement. Bagua gets its power from the foot work and always involves the entire body mass in the strike or block. This art is very similar to Xing I and Tai Chi.

There are many subsystems of Bagua, however there are three regions in China where the art originated. In each of these three regions the forms look different but still have the underlying footwork.So don't be surprised to see differences in the forms. This is a very good art. It is useful not only to gain better health but also for fighting as well. This art will retain is usefulness even when the pratitioner is very old.
