Xinyiliuhequan (aka “Xinyi”)
is a unique Chinese martial art that can be reliably dated back to at least the
mid-1700s. The art consists of, but is not limited to:
·
The Ten Animals
– like the most ancient of martial arts, Xinyi attempts to emulate the form,
intention, and evolved wisdom of a variety of animals
·
The Six Harmonies – ways of combining internal with external; intention and courage with
the body and energy
·
The Five Elements / Yin-Yang Theory – philosophical lenses for considering martial
techniques, health, and the world
·
The Seven Fists
– developing the whole body as a “fist”, starting with the hands, elbows,
shoulders, feet, knees, hips, and head
·
Other – a
host of practices for developing calm stillness, graceful movement, explosive
power, balance, body conditioning, flexibility, dynamic two-person drills,
self-defense applications, etc.
