My teacher ( wangs adopted son and witness to the birth of yiquan),said simply that many people came to Wang but very few realized yiquan in their body. Instead they all trained a bit and went away, using the name for the rest of their life to promote themselves. Most teach tai chi and call it yiquan. In fact 90% of all yiquan people today don’t follow wangs words or practice, but use the name. Wang stopped tuishou because the students became more fixed over time. Wang stopped fa li because the students use power and speed , reenforcing their existing external habits. Wang was against using mystic terms like chi and soong. Why? Because what you think and what you imagine are part of the problem. Now we have entire schools who think yi=quan power. It is so easy to misunderstand yiquan and so easy to miss in transmission. So now yiquan is much as xing yi was when Wang first thought that there was a problem of practicing the shape without internal content. Now years later I see people come and train a few times, then go off and think they understand yiquan. Sometimes they teach, using the name. It took Wang decades to gain his understanding. It took my teacher 15 years of living with Wang. All these people think they can gain it in less time and effort?!? Hubris and ego are wicked and they create fools and imposters. My teacher taught Yao for 8 years. His words are as valid as any involved. He knew the problems. When he spoke about the best students he never said Yao. Yao has an issue. He disagreed with Wang upon core principle. That being one. Yao said two. It’s evident in all of the Yao teaching. They Supplement yiquan with other things because yiquan isn’t complete for them. Two is external method and it always multiples technically. One reduces complexity as a hall mark. Yiquan is one. Tao. Dropping away, not building images of the mind. 90% of yiquan is lost now.

Interesting.... Never has heard Wang had an adopted son other than Yao was his god-son. My teacher learnt from Wang but never had mentioned his adopted son. Is there more that you can tell us? It would be helpful to yiquan people to get to the core of yiquan.

You sound so much like the man who showed me the door to this most subtle of disciplines. I still try. I still struggle. It helps with everything. I think It's just about visualising what has been demonstrated and trying until it feels good. I hope you find students. It's important. It's quite possible that I'll never reach that level, but that's okay with me. I'll just direct the benefits to myself positively to those around me.

It is my pleasure to see Giant Master Wang's one of his top best student Master Yao. But, in Yiquan, you are not still totally understand Giant Wang's great skill and great method!!!! Giant Master Wang told us already and even through poem and through newspaper's interview that Yiquan is not about external movement, it is all about internal spirit, illusion, standing sleeping................Actually, it is about how to explore our own basic instinct and develop it stronger and stronger, until the natural force become too large and needed to be controlled. It is action and re-action. Illusion is action, body nervous system response is re-action. For example, standing on the surface of the sea and thunderbolt aound through our Yi (spirit), and the re-action is.....(if you understand) Before touching opponent, Nothing happen. But,This force will concentrate just touching the opponent somewhat like electric shock, and opponent will go into Coma. Giant reached this level already, but he found difficult to explain to us !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Using too much time in practicing pushing hands or any external movement is a waste of time to learn real Yiquan. Going into wrong direction will never enjoy what Yiquan inspire us. You are a lucky person who could listen Giant' direct teaching. But you still used your own strength and own force too much. Putting down your own force thoroughly, totally.....and purely explore basic instinct force. If reaching Giant level , just touch the opponent , he will go into Coma....even his heart will stop. Yiquan actually is the most dangerous Martial Art in our world. Master Bruce lee Jeet Kuen Do is the best also , but he collasped because pure physical exercises must destroy the whole body. Yiquan is in the opposite way in training. From my point of view, Yiquan is universe , the things inside are much much greater than Human Martial Art. Please forgive my honest. For Giant Master Wang XiangZhai

I am highly sceptical many people are prepared to put the work in to manifest these principles and then be able to manifest them on boxing under the chaotic stress of combat.....maybe 1 in a generation gets it in totality, a special few get parts but most stand moving slowly getting nothing. It is such a mental and physical inner transformation i believe it is beyond most in the 21st century full of distraction.

That's true for any martial art under the conditions you've described. It's also a very salient observation and a crux to getting better. Working on having a mind and awareness that can do that is rare and takes training and practice. It's why champions are few and competitors are plentiful.

Wang Xiang Zhai was not a teacher ,he was the Grand Master and the one who created Yi Quan, he traveled the whole country of China north and south for 40 years fighting every kung fu style he could find,and said after 40 years a found only 2 real masters in China , thats all you need to know about Yi Quan lol, its the real deal, not commercialised bullshit that they call kung fu

You might like to read this .. Kenichi Sawai (澤井 健一, Sawai Ken'ichi, 1903-1988) was a Japanese martial artist and a colonel in the Japanese army. Having achieved a fourth-dan grade in judo under Sanpo Toku and a fifth-dan in kendo, Kenichi visited Beijing in 1939 to challenge Wang Xiangzhai, the founder of yiquan. He made several attempts to defeat Wang, including one where he fought with a shinai whilst Wang used only a stick. However, Kenich was soundly defeated each time. Kenichi subsequently applied to study under Wang, and was accepted. However, virtually all of his training was provided by Wang's student, Yao Zongxun.

You see you don’t understand! I didn’t criticize YiQuan . What I can see is that practitioner here dedicated his whole life in one method and his training went to a mediocre level- the fajing expression is not high class. There are so many people in the martial arts community they can do better . I don’t need a Webside . Go and check the given account. This is my statement- if a Master never fought in his life in a combat sport tournament ( where he can meet prepared fighters not drunks on the street) and try to bring his skill into play then all this theory and qigong stuff is without any foundation. Go to www.WarriorNeigong.com and learn the fundamentals of internal martial arts. The grand circle should be interesting for you .

I have to reply to this. Yiquan is a martial art developed in and around the 1920s and it 'borrowed' from the best arts around at that time especially Hsing Yi Quan. It also 'borrowed' a little from western boxing and if you only used your eyes to look a bit more carefully you would note that because Yao is wearing boxing gloves does not mean he is western boxing! In fact he is slapping (using a palm is common in Yiquan and also his punches are Yiquan punches, quite different from boxing).
