Critics Review
I would recommend anyone interested in martial arts in general to take a look at the very interesting perspective that the author expresses on his art in this book. – East-West Taoist Association Newsletter
Jinghan He
He Jinghan is a fifth generation practitioner of the BaguaQuan lineage. At the age of 15, he started studying Yang style TaijiQuan but after six or seven years came to a standstill and stopped improving. For several years he tried other styles of TaijiQuan, as well as XingyiQuan, ShaolinQuan and others but they were not his answers. When he was 23, he was introduced to Master Gong BaoZhai and began to specialize in Bagua. He became a disciple of Master Gong at the age of 24. For 23 years he studied this way until his teacher’s death. He Jinghan now focuses his attentions on the cultivation of the arts and the promotion of the BaguaDaoyin.
