First, be advised that all of these VCD's are IN CHINESE ONLY. In our opinion that doesn't matter much because the instruction is clear and the quality of photography very good. But we will not accept returns just because people didn't read... IN CHINESE ONLY. Given that, these are really tremendous deals for the money. Each of these special VCD's can be played on a computer for full enjoyment. Made for PC's they are also Mac compatible by downloading Quick time (for free) and any similar VCD player program. Also playable on most DVD players. For less than $10.00? Wow! |

BaGua Cheng Style with Sun Zhi Jun
Click on pictures to see larger versions. |

About 1 Hour, VCD pricing, Chinese only Not only are the eight palm changes made and shown in slow motion but there is a section of basics showing stances and stepping patterns. Also there is a demonstration of the eight basic palm actions done as single striking movements. |
|||||
Double VCD, VCD pricing, Chinese only This original VCD set was FOUR disks. Now only TWO are available and those are disappearing rapidly. We see Sun Shifu's student, Wang De Ming, demonstrating the basic hand and foot exercises of the Cheng branch of Bagua. This is a very good, progressive and complete introduction to the type of movement you would expect if you wanted to delve into the forms and style of Sun Zhi Jun. Not to be looked down upon, these are the kind of basics you actually need because they introduce not only the essential concepts but, from the first movement, partake of the FLAVOR of Sun's interpretation... This also includes the first and second form sets. This differs from the basics of the #1368 above because where that VCD shows eight basic movements and their transitions this VCD shows over twenty exercises in a class type setting then a broken down for students explanation of the basic form. Note: This is a the first two VCDs and concentrate on strong basic information: $13.95 while they last. |

VCD#1369 Cheng BaGua Sun Zhi Jun and his student, Wang De Ming, show the Eight Big Mother changes of the Cheng system. This VCD is essentially a clean showing of the changes by Wang who has caught Sun’s style accurately. When shown we see some of the purest Bagua applications. Additionally there are numerous lecture points given by Sun. | |||||
VCD#1370 Cheng BaGua Saber is said to be one of the main weapons in Swimming Dragon Bagua. Two person Bagua sabers. Here is a demonstration of a partner set with two sabers. Also there is a demonstration of the single person Bagua saber set. The duet set is shown both at full speed and slow, broken into sections. The swords used are Bagua long sabers. Demonstrated by Sun's students: Wang De Ming and Ge Chun Yan. | |||||

VCD#801
Cheng BaGua Fundamentals Includes three main practice methods: Mother Palms, Changing Palms and Linked Palms. Some tight photography on footwork and some nice, fluid basic exercises. Everything done lightly and with grace. These are not "simple" palms. Each of the three sections could take you a year. The first is relatively easy but even the Mother Palms are complex and beautifully interwoven. NO LONGER AVAILABLE AS A SINGLE VCD, but this is included, along with the other vcds in this series, in the DVD that comes with the EXCELLENT Sun Zhi Jun book above. |
|||||
VCD#802
Cheng BaGua This is the "master set" of Sun's BaGua system as far as hands are concerned. A fluid and fast changing series of palm changes that will have you head spinning and your heels reeling. Not the standard symmetrical patterns that go on and off like light switches. An integrated, highly complex and rapid altering series of movements that capture the essence of his style. NO LONGER AVAILABLE AS A SINGLE VCD, but this is included, along with the other vcds in this series, in the DVD that comes with the EXCELLENT Sun Zhi Jun book above. |

VCD#803
Cheng BaGua
NO LONGER AVAILABLE AS A SINGLE VCD, but this is included, along with the other vcds in this series, in the DVD that comes with the EXCELLENT Sun Zhi Jun book above. Sun knows how to work a spear. Most movements might be from any style with this weapon but he imparts an authority rarely seen in BaGua spear and shows some movements that wed theme and instrument. |
|||||
 VCD#804
Cheng BaGua
A wild and longish set with the oversized BaGua broadsword. Many turns and sweeps always keeping the idea of circularity in mind. Sun has passed beyond where many people stop. His BaGua has become totally circular even when there are straight movements demonstrated. This set is open, lively and fairly complex but it also well worth seeing. |
|||||
VCD#805
Cheng BaGua
BaGua Straight Sword Without a doubt one of the best BaGua straight sword performances we've seen. Sun's version is complex yet clear, fluid without being flimsy. Important moves are shown in the beginning as excerpts form the form. Sections are shown front and back. His mastery of the weapon will impress. |
|||||
VCD#806
Cheng BaGua
A really beautiful, and somewhat complex set with these weapons. Sun is a little hard to trace exactly on the circle because he doesn't use one but, with fluidity and meaning as demonstrable as his, who cares? Well worth the money if you want BaGua knives. |
