More than Earth, Wind and Fire
Xingyi has five fundamental striking techniques. One for each of the five Chinese elements. (and two more than Earth, Wind and Fire).
Chop — Pi Quan The Metal Element
Drill — Zuan Quan The Water Element
Beng Quan () — Wood
Pao Quan (Cannon) — Fire
Heng Quan (Cross-Cut) — Earth
These five train striking downwards, upwards, through the middle, to the outside and to the inside.
“Because they give rise to all other techniques, the classic texts called the Xingyi’s ‘mother techniques’ …
The five element fists are not just 5 different techniques… More importantly they are 5 methods of generating power and 6 ways to train the power generation of Xingyi.”
– Di Guoyong (translated by Andrea Falk)
