A no nonsense kung fu style, as a Hsing I practitioner you use simple direct techniques to end a fight in the blink of an eye. Yet despite this overall pragmatism, you develop one of the highest levels of Chi development in any kung fu style. Hsing I is a middle distance style, longer than Wing Chun but shorter than Hung Gar or Choy Li Fut.
The name Hsing I can be translated as "mind / intention" punching. The style revolves around the concepts of Five Elements (earth, metal, water, wood and fire) and Twelve Animals (dragon, tiger, monkey, horse, chicken, falcon, snake, tai bird, lizard, swallow, eagle and bear).
The Five Elements correspond to five types of fighting power, and the Twelve Animals give Hsing I its adaptability. Hsing I incorporates the spirit of each animal to augment its techniques e.g. the dragon is powerful and fierce. You enter the realm of the metaphysical by training your Chi to conscious thought through the Twelve Animals Form.
If you're starting out in Hsing I, the Five Elemental Fist (also known as the Five Elements Form) is the classic Hsing I entry level form that presents you the basic techniques of the style, including the techniques of the Five Elements. Each of the five elements is represented by a type of combination attacking technique. Our eBook shows the complete form, as well as drills, techniques and applications associated with the form.
