The book "The Art of Xingyiquan" by Li Jianqiu contains teachings on the martial art of Xingyiquan, specifically focusing on the Five Elements. The author explains that Xingyiquan originated in Shanxi province and was later passed down through various lineages. However, due to the passage of time and lack of systematic recording, there are many errors and inconsistencies in the existing Xingyiquan manuscripts. The author believes that the Five Elements are the foundation of Xingyiquan and should be practiced thoroughly. He goes on to provide detailed explanations and illustrations of each of the Five Elements, including their movements, applications, and variations. He also emphasizes the importance of proper body mechanics, breathing, and mental focus in practicing Xingyiquan. Overall, the book serves as a comprehensive guide to the practice of Xingyiquan through the lens of the Five Elements, offering both theoretical explanations and practical instructions for students of this martial art. Li Jianqiu (1891-1976) was a renowned master of the martial art Xingyiquan, also known as "Form-Intention Fist." Born in Hebei province, China, Li began his martial arts training at a young age, studying with several renowned masters. He eventually became a disciple of Guo Yunshen, one of the most prominent Xingyiquan masters of the time. Li went on to become a well-respected teacher and practitioner of Xingyiquan, developing his own unique style and teaching many students throughout his life. He also wrote several books on Xingyiquan, including "The Art of Xingyiquan," which focuses on the Five Elements and is still considered a classic in the field of martial arts literature. Li Jianqiu's contributions to the development and preservation of Xingyiquan have made him a respected figure in the history of Chinese martial arts.

This in-depth guide is the first to cover the history and traditions of the art in such a comprehensive way, describing the essential Xingyi Quan movements, and their effects, in fully illustrated form, and including the author's research with the Song Xingyi Quan clan in China. The book contains a comprehensive teaching guide to the practice of Santi Shr and the Five Element Fists, the core exercises of this potent fighting system, as well as explanations of the underlying principles which give Xingyi Masters their great depth of skill and refined understanding of combat strategy. The reader will also find clearly illustrated teachings of all the Twelve Animal Forms, linking forms, two person sets, basic skills, and the weapons training. This authoritative book will be an illuminating and complete guide for anyone interested in the internal martial arts, especially those practicing or teaching Xingyi Quan or wanting to learn more about it.

Literally translated as "Form-Intention Boxing," Xing Yi Quan emphasizes internal movement within external stillness. Practicing Xing Yi trains the practitioner to actualize the instinctive, hair-trigger reactions of the human body in direct, powerful movements. Xing Yi training focuses on natural, integrated movement, whole body breathing, and the movement of Qi (vital energy), rather than external technique. Rooted in Daoist meditation and longevity practices, and Chinese medical and martial art traditions dating back into antiquity, Xing Yi Quan training draws upon ancient Daoist meditation and inner alchemical practices that transform the body's internal structure, while confronting and dispelling extraneous thoughts to actualize true Intention, thereby providing the practitioner with a comprehensive method of actualizing his or her own inherent potential. Xing Yi Quan: Art of Inner Transformation is not a how-to book. In this fascinating meditation on the art of Xing Yi Quan and its many applications to life and living, author Tom Bisio discusses the many facets of this ancient art: - What is Xing Yi Quan? - The Relationship of Xing Yi Quan to Daoism - Xing Yi Quan and the Five Elements - The Health Benefits of Xing Yi Quan - Xing Yi Quan Training - Suitability of Xing Yi Quan for Different Ages & Lifestyles - Xing Yi Quan as a Martial Art - Xing Yi Quan as a Psycho-Spiritual Path Xing Yi Quan has five key movements, known as The Five Elements, or The Five Fists. Each of the Five Fists has a specific internal action and intention that is simultaneously energy enhancing, combative, and strengthens and harmonizes the internal organs. Practicing the Five Fists cultivates Qi and develops practical fighting skills. In Xing Yi Quan: Art of Inner Transformation Tom Bisio explains how the postures and movements of Xing Yi Quan open the body's energy pathways (meridians), promoting health and well-being, while simultaneously arousing and enlivening the Qi, so that there is no gap between intention and action.

Traditional Chinese martial art Xingyiquan, more commonly known as Xingyi, is renowned for its forceful, direct, and destructive techniques. By virtue of its nomenclature "Shape-Will Fist" or "Form-Intention Fist," "Xingyiquan" emphasizes the synchronization of bodily motions with the intent of the mind. Taijiquan (Tai Chi) and Baguazhang are the other two main internal martial arts in China, alongside Xingyiquan. It emerged during the Qing dynasty after its inception in the late Ming dynasty (around the 16th century). Prominent characteristics of Xingyiquan comprise: - The foundation of Xingyiquan lies in the Five Elements, namely Metal, Water, Wood, Fire, and Earth. The system of motion and attributes of these elements serve as the inspiration for Xingyiquan's techniques. - Hyperbolic Linearity: In contrast to the cyclical motions observed in Tai Chi or Bagua, Xingyiquan places significant emphasis on direct and linear movements that possess a force that is frequently likened to "crashing through" an adversary's defenses. - Five Phases: In the realm of Xingyiquan, practitioners customarily engage in training encompassing five phases or "fists"-Pi, Beng, Zuan, Pao, and Heng-each of which symbolizes a distinct strategy and method of attack. - Mind-Body Unity: The harmonization of the physical and mental spheres is a fundamental principle in Xingyiquan. A profound comprehension of body mechanics, alignment, and the cultivation of internal energy (Qi) is the objective of practitioners. - Practical Self-Defense: Although Xingyiquan, similar to other internal martial arts, encompasses philosophical and health-related elements, its predominant objective is self-defense. Assortments of techniques consist of strikes, kicks, joint locking, and throws. Xingyiquan is frequently incorporated into comprehensive training regimens for internal martial arts practitioners, which also include Taijiquan and Baguazhang. It remains an active form of martial art, renowned for its health-promoting, mindfulness-enhancing, and personal development-oriented advantages.
