Doc Posted January 5, 2018 Hello. I am a long time member and a non frequent poster. It is great to be here and always love the upgrades and improvements over the years. Currently I am working on the connection between internal arts. Specifically Aikido and Bagua. Anyone interested in discussing the historical possibility of this?

zerostao Posted January 5, 2018 I look forward to your thread on this topic. There are Bagua and Aikido players on the forum. So, it should get some discussion. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GreytoWhite Posted January 23, 2018 There's no real connection between the two historically. http://www.aikidosangenkai.org/blog/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doc Posted June 15, 2018 There is plenty of connection between Bagua and Aikido. You can check Bruce's work on this. Just because the Japanese don't ever want to consider the Chinese as their big brother, most of them are intelligent to understand it as truth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doc Posted June 15, 2018 Guo Shilei has been attempting to align with Us. That is up to my wife. She is the lineage holder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted June 15, 2018 It would likely be up to her even if she wasn't the lineage holder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doc Posted June 15, 2018 sure enough. she will drop me in an instant and take care of anyone else who has a problem too. funny that way to be a combat veteran and almost 6 feet tall and get dropped by a 5-4 125 pounder.... one day she might let me show you some videos of it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm Guo Shilei's disciple based in Singapore and this is the first I've heard of this. In fact, I checked with him and this is the first he's heard of it too. He's also very surprised to hear that someone other than his teacher is the Ma Weiqi lineage holder. I'm quite curious what your wife's name is. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eastpaw Posted July 15, 2022 (edited) Thanks for the support, Cobie. I just had a look at his name and it looks like he left these forums the same day he posted this. Guessing he won't be back. Edited July 15, 2022 by eastpaw 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Happy to field any questions anyone may have on MWQ Bagua. I've also uploaded a few more subbed/dubbed videos over the last few years. Some are about the full contact Sanda or Kickboxing tournaments some of our fellows have been competing in. Trained purely in Bagua/Taiji, not in Sanda or what-not, they've brought home quite a number of gold medals. Some are pro tournament golds. https://www.youtube.com/user/baguamaweiqi/playlists 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cobie Posted July 16, 2022 @eastpaw Thanks for posting that. Impressive stuff indeed! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eastpaw Posted July 17, 2022 (edited) Appreciate the encouragement, Cobie. I think I'll take up this discussion again in another thread since this one is very old and has... unfortunate elements. Edited July 17, 2022 by eastpaw 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
