Thank you for posting this Jarek. Master Sun was both an excellent Bagua teacher and a very cultured person. Sad to see him go. He lived a long and full life.

Deepest sympathies to Master Sun Zhijun's family and students.

I remember sometime in the early, early 90s wondering through little neighborhood grocery shops in Beijing with my wife and coming across a set of bagua vcds. They were really cheap so I bought a set of them, got back to her parents home, and watched them - very blown away by his movements, forms, and weapon performance.

Understandably a real loss but his students appear to be carrying on his legacy.

Jarek, thanks for keeping us posted.

I have one of those VCD's, you're right it's good.
Most of his stuff is sold out on plumpub.com which shows it's good quality.

May he rest in peace.
