Xingyi Five Elements Boxing – Adam Hsu

The Five-element Boxing(Wuxing Quan)also called Xingyi Mother Boxing is the most basic fist technique in the series of Xingyi Quan.It includes:Chop Fist (Pi Quan),Drill Fist(Zuan Quan),Snap Fist(Beng Quan),Cannon Fist (Pao Quan)and Crosscut Fist (Heng Quan).

The Five-element Boxing is anmed according to the Five Elements theory in the China's traditional culture.Preuious masters combined fist forms with Five Elements theory,simplified them to find out the five boxing forms,combined body and Chinese medicine theory to define the boxing theory and skills of attack and defence,finally named it Five-element Boxing.

This DVD delivers what it promises: a detailed breakdown of the Five Element Mother Fists.

The instructor is a Chinese government conservationist in charge of preserving Xingyi as part of the national heritage—but for the viewer, that means he's had access to traditional Xingyi and its variations. He takes you step by step through each Mother Fist—metal, water, wood, fire, earth—adding in transitions and a nice linked form.

He pauses over each detail, going over it again and again so the beginner has access to each fist, and also to the linked form. I've watched the DVD over and over, following along and learning each fist one by one.

I love it; it's definitely worth the money as the best introduction I've found to the Five Element Fist (the core of Xingyi–the Twelve Animals are another story). Highly recommended.
