Is there anyone on the board who practices Gao Jiwu's baguazhang? What exactly does the curriculum consist of? His grandfather apparently learned bagua from Yin Fu and Liu Dekuan (plus some influence of Yiquan, Xingyi, and Taiji), but what I've seen of the curriculum looks more like a variation of Liang style.
They tend to refer to what they teach as primarily Yin style.
So far, I've gathered that the curriculum includes (but is not limited to):
Liang style fixed 8 palms
Old 8 palms/Continuous 8 palms
Liu style 64 palms (fairly different from the version practiced by Liang schools)
Saber
A variation of the deerhorns/duck knives that seems pretty unique to the style
Can anyone shed some light as to the rest of the curriculum? Also, is their Old 8 palms practice the same as that of the Liang style? (Reference: some of the Liang 8 palms: http://youtube.com/watch?v=WZkYScoaF6s)
What I'm really getting at is that I haven't seen anything of their curriculum that is distinctly Yin style. Thoughts?
