The Bagua Linear Qigong and Body Building Form:

This is an exciting area of one's Baguazhang training as it involves very advanced methods of doing the Bagua Linear Form. Here we learn how to use this great form as Qigong in order to completely re-balance the internal Qi. Excellent for anti-depression etc.
We also learn that this form, when done in a different way can be used to build body muscle for the self defence arts. Doing this form at this more explosive level is like doing an hour at the gym. Excellent for self defence as it build all the correct muscle groups for fighting.
See and ARTICLE on this: This form is also part of the "Qi Activation and Manifestation" method, where we are able to actually use the postures in certain ways to heal others in a full therapy for various disease and body states. You can read an ARTICLE Here:

Insights Into Qigong, Pushing Hands and Catholic Girls! 50 Minutes.

This DVD titles also comes from Camp 2007 in Rostock Germany where Erle Montague gave one of his many impromptu and unexpected lessons after dinner one evening. This covered some deep insights into Qigong, how it works to heal the body and also to gain power from the backbone. The Push Hands is something close to Erle's heart as his ideas and experience only ever lean to the real world self defence methods gained from push hands. No long open stances, just standing there as if you were in the street.

MTG326
Qi Activation & Manifestation Using Yang Lu-ch'an's Form Volume Two. 1 Hour and 15 minutes.

Quite an exciting area of one's advanced Tai Chi training and in fact any internal martial/healing arts training. This is where we learn about how the hands in particular work in activating and manifesting Qi for healing and especially for medical Qigong methods. You never notice it when you see some advanced Tai Chi Master practice, however, one of his or her hands will be activating  the Qi by moving over the Tantien in a certain manner while the other hand is manifesting that activation for healing on another person. This set was made at Erle Montaigue's annual summer camp in Rostock Northern Germany in August of 2007 over 5 days. Please read an article on this here: http://www.taiji-qigong.co.uk/Free_To_Download/Erle's%20Articles/Articles/tai_chi_commect.htm This covers how Baguazhang does the same thing, but the principles are all the same.

Bagua Unicorn Boxing: Full Animal Form With Applications

One of the nicest Bagua Animal forms ever. You will feel the benefits both to your fighting skill s as well as to you own wellbeing and positive mind state. Combine this with the Bagua linear form and you will be flying for the rest of the day. it is just such a positive set of movements, it just makes one feel great! It works upon the Gall Bladder, Colon and Pancreas in the body and as the Gall Bladder meridian is the longest, covering the body from head to toe, the whole body is toned up when you practice this form.

Bagua Unicorn Boxing

The Unicorn is of the clouds and earth, he turns like a tornado and the organs affected are the whole right side of the abdomen including Gall Bladder, Colon and Pancreas. He is regal and powerful attacking with front hooves as well as rear. The Unicorn’s family member is the ‘Mother’.

 1/. Unicorn Turns & Twists

Walk the circle once in a counter clockwise direction. Take an inner L step to the centre as your body gyrates out of the circumference and your both arms circle CW to the L and upward and continue that circle downward. Take a L slap step on the circumference as both palms knife edges touching, gouge upward.

Open both palms slightly as if grabbing both of the attacker’s arms and then thrust the R palm under the forearm of the left, circling CW upward. The L palm will now slide off the R forearm as your R foot steps forward on the circumference and you strike with your R elbow. As you do this, your L leg will spin around to the rear, spinning on the ball of the R foot to face CCW again.
