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 Quicktime (for free)
and any similar VCD player program. Also playable on most DVD players.
For less than $10.00? Wow! |
MI-ZONG Lost Track Boxing Page Two
The flavor of MiZong is "indeterminate" with many changes,
turns and reversals in this essentially Long Fist Northern Style.
Rare in the West but very famous indeed in China. The style was most popularly associated with Huo Yuan Chia the inspiration
of TWO famous Kung Fu films: Bruce Lee's Chinese Connection and
Jet Li's Fists of Legend. Master Huo was said to be fabulously strong
and was picked to head the world-famous Ching Wu Association of
ShangHai.

VCD#475
Mi-Zong style
Single Practice
About
1 Hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
A
whole series of basics for the individual player. Since most people
practice alone we think of these basics and self defense motions
as very useful. Basically up and back work with shoulders, fists,
knees, kicks and all the elements of power issuance. |
VCD#476
Mi-Zong style
Double Whips
About
1 Hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
There
are two types of Steel Whips. The most common is the soft kind.
The stiff form is much less common nowadays. This is a Lost Track
version of the Double Steel Whips or stiff rods. The actions are
very similar to Double Straight Swords but some moves are definitely
different. A classical weapon almost lost. See our Lion Book new
additon for another version of this weapon. |
VCD#477
Mi-Zong style
6 Harmony Saber
About
1 Hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
Many
styles boast a version of the famous Six harmony Saber. This is
a good one for a number of reasons. Not a tremoundously complicated
set it is clear yet with many changes. The footwork, always important
in broadsword, is light and changeable. There are a number of more
unusual angles and approaches but the core of the set is good, solid
saber work.. |
VCD#662
Mi-Zong style
Five Tiger Boxing
Double
VCD, VCD pricing,
Chinese Only
A
much fiercer form than many of the others in this series. Every
move is shown with a definite "tigerish" quality to the
usage. Some spinning and throwing types of attacks. The whole range
of Mi Zong is pretty big and this form is one of the more specifically
targeted training types. Tiger claws are retained throughout, not
common to Northern Fists. Double
VCD |
VCD#663
Mi-Zong style
Partner Self Defense
About
1 Hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
There
is a whole section of training in WuShu which should be brought
back with a venegence, in our opinion. This is a group of exercises
that lie somewhere between Partner forms and single practice. These
are two person short loops of actions that allow both partners to
take either side of the sequence. Here is a whole disk of them.
Particularly appropriate to use as a reference for working with
a friend or to bring a new series of Long Fist partner sequences
into your class training if you teach. |
VCD#664
Mi-Zong style Linked Hands
Double
VCD, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
Mi
Zong, which is a large and old style, has many forms. This one is
somewhere between Tan Tui and Xing Yi. It is a set of Roads with
VERY simple fist motions each road specializing (for instance one
road is nothing but swing punches). Applications
are shown. Each fist is almost a strolling series of similar motions.
Very straight forward.
Double
VCD. |
VCD#665
Mi-Zong style 2-Headed Spear
About
1 Hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
What
could be more appropriate for a style based on "indeterminacy"
than a two-headed spear? This weapon. authentic but not common,
is demonstrated in full and then breakdown. Not for the beginner,
even the demonstrator actually sticks it into the grass by accident
at one point. |
VCD#666
Mi-Zong style
Partner Boxing
About
1 Hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
A
classic set of two person exercises for conditioning and strength.
Many are based on dynamic tension, a very ancient method for the
Chinese. Many would be excellent for grapplers as well as though
practicing the striking arts. Also very good for develoing strength
and leverage in young people. |
VCD#667
Mi-Zong style
Duet Combinations
About
1 Hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
In
the universe of Mi Zong training this particular disk centers on
the art of evasion. Numerous exercises have one partner striking
at the other while the second partner moves his body out of range.
Starting with simple head evasions and moving to whole body retreats
the progressive exercises work on agility and timing. |
VCD#668
Mi-Zong style
6 Harmony Flower Spear
About
1 Hour, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
A
fluid and multi-faceted spear set. We look for the following: first
a wide range of traditional techniques rather than a few simple
moves repeated over and over. A good use of the body itself to generate
the actions of the spear. A series of fluid and well managed transitions.
This particular set has all of these and retains the flavor of the
system. |
VCD#669
Mi-Zong style 100 Techniques
Triple
VCD, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
The
title is no exaggeration. There are indeed a hundred techniques
on these disks. They all incorporate the Mi Zong idea of Yin and
Yang as Bright and Dark. Every combination has a apparent and hidden
motion such as a fake to the head and an attack to the groin. Triple
VCD. |
