Ba Gua Zhang literally means 'palm of the eight trigrams' and is a style of Traditional Chinese Kung Fu. It is one of the three major Internal Styles, alongside Tai Ji Quan and Xing Yi Quan. Ba Gua Zhang can be practiced for various purposes: primarily as a martial art that develops increasingly complex techniques starting from simple exercises, including partner work, and eventually leading to actual combat while respecting the style's characteristics and principles. Additionally, it can be practiced for physical wellness, as its circular movements and continuous twists provide numerous physical and mental benefits, enhancing circulation and muscle activity. Ba Gua Zhang also includes a unique QI GONG method, focusing on breathing and the care of Qi (internal energy) through martial practice. Furthermore, it aids in developing self-control and self-awareness, fostering a deep connection between mind and body.
