Ted Mancuso – Bagua: The Art of Change DVD 1

“The Bagua System: a whole lesson on a single DVD.” There is nothing else like it on the market! A comprehensive instruction tape that includes reeling silk theory, applications, fundamentals, warm-ups, and the famed Eight Changing Palms. A must-have resource for every martial arts library.

This DVD teaches the fundamentals of Ba Gua, T’ai Chi’s more advanced sister. It includes clear and extensive instructions. It contains explicit talks of theory rather than a “walk through” with no foundation. Because of its modular practice style, Ba Gua is quickly becoming as popular as T’ai Chi. Tape #1 provides an overview with a wealth of material, including Chi Kung and application. Some themes discussed include:

BaGua Theory: The Elements of the BaGua Circle BaGua’s basis is walking.
Chi Kung: Inhale and exhale BaGua fashion

Self-Defense Applications: flavored with BaGua BaGua Post Work is uncommon.
