Xingyi Quan Ten Minute Primer – Heng Quan (Cross-Cut Fist)



Mu Shin Martial Culture

This is the seventh video in a series of Xingyi Quan Ten Minute Primer Videos. The aim of these videos will be to introduce the key points regarding training methods and basic fundamental aspects of Xingyi Quan that anyone can follow, whether they are new to the art or practice it already.

In this primer video I will introduce and explain the basic theory and practice methods of the fifth of the five element fists, Heng Quan (Cross-Cut Fist). While there are numerous variations of Heng Quan, in this primer video I shall cover the fundamental details and standard execution within my Hebei line of Xingyi Quan. In general all methods and variations of Heng Quan adhere to and implement the principles that I shall present here.

  1. Thank you grandly for posting these Xing Yi videos, they fill an important niche that had been missing on YouTube! The step by step instructions are great! I have practiced Taiji and Yiquan for 16 years, also learned the Santi stance, Pi Chuan, Pao Chuan, and Tsuan Chuan over a decade ago, and now have a strong desire to complete learning all of the five element fists of Xing Yi. Here you have made it possible! What a wonderful system, one of the best and fastest ways to get healthy and fit around! You are doing a great work!

  2. 35 yrs of Hebei Xingyiquan here… excellent instruction. I personally cringe at bad Xingyiquan being taught by people who don't know they don't know. This and the other videos by Mu Shu MA made me smile and beam with xingyiquan pride

  3. I only began my study of Xingyi Quan in January, and have so much to learn still. While our school's version of the 5 Elements differs in the details, the principles are clearly the same, and I have found your videos both informative and inspiring. Thank you for the attention to detail and clear instruction.

  4. These are really good videos. I have Heibei system but our crossing fist is different. I dont think ours is really a punch at all. Its more like a way of blocking and turning the opponent. I dont like it. I like this one better.

  5. Excellent ! Your videos are awesome and your moves are correct as well as the transfer of power . The only thing I would fix is to hollow a little more the chest/ round the shoulders making the yin yang fish a little more round .( I m a practitioner myself for 15 years ). But your videos are some of the best I ve seen .Great work keep on .

  6. Thank you for making these primer videos. I have greatly enjoyed them and they are adding depth to my practice. Any chance you would consider making similar videos on Xingyi Spear?

  7. Really enjoy your videos, Xing Yi is something I've always been curious about studying. I am training Tang Lang and my Sifu taught me footwork similar to what you demonstrate here as part of our practice drills which I have a hard time getting exactly right so seeing someone else breakdown the movement helps.
