Baguazhang Spontaneous Form and Application
This is a small demo of Jiulong Baguazhang zifa wudao (九龍自發舞蹈) nine dragons spontaneously dancing form. This is not a memorized martial form; it is an expression of feeling and energy similar to the Yiquan health dance concept. The spontaneous form flows out of the unconscious like a big dragon sailing lazily in the sky as one imagines weaving and dodging a series of attacks from two or more opponents.
The application portion of this demo is an unrehearsed attack by two opponents, Bagua instructors Yancy Orchard and Rick Krausman. The only instructions given them were for them to attempt to grab and hold Dr. Painter if possible.
This demonstration was filmed at the masters demonstration at A Taste of China in Winchester Virginia in 2006.
