LIU HE BA FA Part Three (of three)
6 Harmonies and 8 Methods
NOTE: This series requires ALL THREE VIDEOS.

from the back covers:
"Liu He Ba Fa is an internal art, which combines tai chi, ba gua and xing yi. What is Liu He? "Liu" means "six" and "He" means "combination" and thus "Liu He" means "Six Combinations". What is "Ba Fa"? "Ba" is the number "Eight" and "Fa" means "Principles" and thus "Ba Fa" means "Eight Principles." This is a very extensive version of the Liu He with detailed breakdowns on the movements. In essence you have here six hours of instruction and demonstration showing all 96 movements of the traditional Liu He Ba Fa form. ShihFu Jiang's English is not perfect but it is more than adequate for general video instruction.

DVD#14022 Wild Goose Qigong Part 1

A traditional Ch'i Kung often associated with the Li family, this was created around 1700. It imitates the movement of wild geese, even the flutter of the wings in flight. The style focuses on stretching and opening the joints and the energy channels of the body creating a strong bond between internal and universal (Heavenly) energies. Having studied this form ourselves we can vouch for it as a complete exercise; also presently extremely popular in China for its depth and beauty. This is a two tape series showing the complete 64 movement Wild Goose.
