This is a beautifully designed book about Bagua Zhang and one of its most famous teachers, Liu Yun Chiao. Liu Sifu had the distinction of studying with top-notch teachers famous in styles such as Baji Quan, PiGua Zhang, Tang Lang Quan and others.

One of the most unusual aspects of this text is its presentation: the first 100 plus pages, containing the writings and non-instructional text, are given in several languages. Chronicling the essence of Liu Sifu’s entire teaching life through students, this section offers over one hundred pages of personal testimony about encounters with Liu Sifu. This biographical section is printed in Chinese, but also includes translations in additional languages: English, Spanish, Japanese. (And, fyi, each section may reprint some — but not all — of each language). Instruction itself is solely in Chinese, but the photos are in full color and, each of the example forms is fully broken down.

The combination of form, techniques, scenes and conversations give a real feel for the man, his teachings, and his time.

Photographic presentation of the forms includes:
Bagua Kai Men Opening the Door
Bagua Legs Form
Bagua Saber
ZiWu Blades
Bagua Sword
Bagua Linked Palm
