Shing Yi Chuan
There are three main Chinese Internal arts. Shing Yi (AKA Hsing Yi , Xing Yi) . This is my main discipline. I like to think of it like this; of all three internals it is the hardest of the soft. It’s the closest to the externals. The externals are the martial arts like Kenpo, Krav Maga, Muay Thai , etc. The other two “soft” or internal styles are Tai Chi and Ba Gua. Often you see all three taught with Shaolin based Kung Fu of some kind.
Gong Style Shing Yi Chuan is based on traditional Chinese medicine and the Five Elements Cycles. It is a powerful self purifying system. Although it’s rooted in healing, it is a powerful defense system.
