Hey, to anybody who might be able to answer my question.
I remember back in the day checking out a lot Parks stuff because of the scarcity of Bagua in the US in those days (I am old), and after coming across one of his Dan Miller vids on Youtube, I was perusing it and a question came to mind.
I remember reading that his teacher never mentioned his own teachers name or lineage. At some point I saw an article or discussion that guessed at it being a yin style variant but still no one knowing. Anyhoo, I like to think, after 17 years of doing this board stuff and talking about ICMA and many years before the net was a thing, that I have as good a general knowledge of bagua and it's styles and variants as anyone on the globe and more than most likely....that being said, however, I know there are people who are vastly more knowledgeable than myself and I'm curious if anyone has managed to reverse engineer or through generic historical knowledge from sources I don't have access to figure out where Parks stuff came from.
Anyway, this purely out of curiosity. If I don't find out it's really no skin off my nose, but in our day and age of access to knowledge lack of info on a secretive subject can be quite the itch to find out. See- the amount of time I spent writing this out.
FWIW.
Anyway, thanks in advance to anyone who has any info.
Best,
S.
