To Baji folks

[Shenquan]

Hi guys, I'm a baji practicioner myself so I would like to create a thread to share views and experiences concerning this beautiful style. For example what branch of baji do you train, what has training of this style given you, what do you think of baji training compared to prior experiences in other martial arts, etc...

SPJ has a great site for baji practitionrs:

Also if you are interested in the bajiquan/pigua zhang via Li Shu Wen-->Liu Yun Qiao--> Tony [Xiao-dong] Yang try our website www.wutangcenter.com. Go to the articles for some of the things we have done and catch some of the pictures---we traveled outside of Cangzhou, Hebei in 2000.

There are a lot Liu Yun Qiao's practitioners here and also a great number coming directly out of the Hebei province. All good stuff.

Thanks for the reply I'll check out both the forum and the web site ASAP.
It would be interesting to meet someone from the Liu Yunqiao lineage as I too train in a branch which comes from Li Shuwen but I'm not in the US so it's a bit unlikely for the time being that I'll manage to come. Should you go back to northern China let me know because in a few months I'll be living there

Most of all the Baji in North America is from the Liu Yun Qiao lineage.
Good stuff. I feel in love with Baji and Mantis many moons ago, and it still holds a special place in my heart.
Cheers
