Xingyiquan Five Elements Linking Fist

Xingyi Five Elements Advancing-Retreating Chain Fist is a foundational routine that masterfully chains the Five Elements techniques together. Its essence lies in continuous, tight movements where advance and retreat are interchangeable, and every move is both an attack and defense. Practitioners advance low and retreat high, executing core techniques like the "Three Arrows in One Thrust" with Beng Quan, and practical moves such as "White Crane Spreads Wings" and "Wild Cat Climbs Tree." This three-fold, nine-turn form is mandatory for building the fluidity and skill required for advanced Xingyiquan practice.
