Grandmaster
Fu Zhen Song was a world famous WuDang style master. When Fu was young, he
learned bagua zhang from Chia Feng-Ming (also known as Chia Chi-San). Chia was
the senior disciple of Dong Hai-Chuan. There are over one hundred Chinese
martial arts styles in China. Bagua zhang is the only martial art style that
follows the circle.
Fu Style Bagua Zhang focus on twisting, spiraling, turning, and walking motions
in producing a "tornado power." Tornado power is not only expressed in
a horizontal plane. Depending on how the body is used and how the arms are
coordinated in conjunction with the body movement, the "tornado power"
can be used along vertical, horizontal or diagonal paths. Additionally, the
power can be used in spirals that move from large to small or from small to
large circular paths. Energy can be expressed in all dimensions. For example,
when a ball rotates, energy can shoot off from any point. There are an infinite
number of tangents off of a sphere. This is the unique style of the Fu Style
Bagua Zhang.
