Скачать или смотреть Xingyi Wu Xing Quan - (Five Elements Fists).Master Di Guo-Yong.(240p_H.264-AAC)

I know they are already on youtube, but Di Guoyong is one of my favorite Xingyi Players and I like to learn more about Xingyi.

Acording to Legend the Xingyi Quan and Shaolin Xinyi Quan was created by Song Dynasty General and folk Hero Yue Fei. Its said he was instructed by his second teacher Zhou Tong in spearplay an archery. And by mastering the spearplay on a very high level he layed the foundation for later creationg the Xingyi Quan.

According to written information which survived to this day there is no source which states that it was like that. It is only said that he learned Archery from Zhou Tong and not Spearplay.
He should only have learned spearplay from his first teacher Chen Guang.

But Chinese History is very special. That something isnt recorded does not mean that it not might happen. So we cant know for sure.

Official history most likely credits the creation of Xingyi and Xinyi and also some other sets you also find in China or in the Shaolin Curriculuum to Ji Longfeng from Ming Dynasty.

Ji Longfeng( Or Ji Jike or also Ji Gong) was a highy respected Martial Artist who had nicknames as the Divine Spear or at the later part of his life even God of the Lance. Its said he travelled across China where he came to Shaolin temple. There the monks were impressed by his fighting skills and he was allowed to stay there. Which he did for ten years. In this years he should have created the Xinyi( Heart and Intention Boxing ) which had later been modifed to be Xingyi Quan by Li Nunneng.
