every time i run across this video (it has been years at this point), i am profoundly reminded of the depths heights and extent of Bagua that extend through so many variances of skill and discipline. Also, i am reminded and humbled that more training and understanding can be garnered through practice by your exhibition. Truly potent in its beauty. Thank you. -os-

finally some one that knows how to put force into movement and still keep his balance! subscribed!

That guy is freaking awesome that is some of the best Baqua I have ever seen

This is really good. It's rare to see a westerner practise chinese martial arts with graceful flowing movements. Good job!

So graceful movements!! You become one with the flow and completely lost .!!!

this martial arts is the style of ang's movements form avatar the last air bender.

Thank you for all the supportive comments. I will continue to change, and change, and change..

Excellent performance! I hope to have your fluidity and power in my Bagua training someday. Thank you for posting!

The performer is a very well-trained athlete. The set looks like a sport wushu competition set derived from original Cheng Jia. Body is supple and pretty well integrated. One of the few good bagua videos on youtube. Keep rockin' it out.

...and after all these years still one of the best i have seen so far on internet

Excellent control and clarity of technique. Most impressive, thank you, enjoyable.

Bro I'm impressed. You know how to keep balance when exerting force. You don't over extend. Your movement are smooth, flexible and explosive. You understand where the force is suppose to come from. The only thing i would say is that your trap hands are a bit confusing. When you go for trap and elbows you need to flesh out the limbs you are bridging and your impact point otherwise your techniques application will fail. Great work. I don't practice your style but you do it so well I can tell it's good.

Fantastic. It's wonderful to see the preservation of this intriguing art.

Excellent demonstration, truly Mr Menck has mastered this form and as a Westerner I would be proud to show this to Chinese

Very nice, fluid. What one should aspire to.

Looks fantastic! Alot of hard work gone into it! Well done!

one of the best 8 palm changes i have seen

wow. Such fluid movements and they look so well executed!! Awesome. Subscribed!!

Thanks for give us this Bagua demostration

A fascinating art!

We are beginning to learn Bagua palm changes this season. I can't wait for Sifu to show us more!!

Freedom Martial Arts. First of all, thank you for sharing this video showing a young practitioner " walking the dragon " with great style. Those who follow the " assumption reaction " will make a fool of themselves.

I don’t care what you say... this is impressive.

Very nice Bagua forms. I finally understood the footwork of bagua a couple of days ago from some KZfaq videos. You guys are perfect demonstrators of Bagua.

Graceful movement with elegance and power

nicely done. it's interesting how differences can occur w bagua, I practice a similar style, Liu Bin from Beijing, through Zhang jie. some of the movement patterns are very similar, other's quite a bit different. but the fundamental moves are clearly very similar, especially the off axis and spine turning movements. our method is done very smoothly, less of Fa when compared these palms (thought ours is done w more fa in other forms of the style) thanks for posting.

Very nice demonstration! Keep it going man, nice form too.

I've been practicing Baguazhang since 1996 and have seen hundreds of performances over the years and this has to be the best, imho 🙏♥️☮

This is very beautiful and soothing to watch. I wish i can be this skilled.

Excellent! Thank you for sharing.

Excellently done. Impressive

I only ever had one lesson of bagua, it was one of the most challenging classes of my life (up there with feng shou and dragon style kung fu) I do hope I get to try it again someday. Mad respect for your agility, strength, and skill :)

I enjoyed your changing hands,inspired.I wish you great insights and live well . Mike formerly from green dragon of chicago

subscribed amazing, finally after looking so long.

Beautiful form and performance. Nice touch with General Guan Yu over the door. =)

Looks very skilled and dedicated to me, with fluid motion and fast high kicks, for example. Subbed, and will enjoy seeing more. Thank you! I watched this embedded on the channel’s freedommartialart site, where I read some interesting information on the style and its origins.

It looks great. Thank you!

very good work. Your form is very impressive.

FANTASTIC! ,MANY THANKS FOR SHARING, IT WAS AWESOME!😊😊😊😊

Amazing skill and power. Bagua footwork at this level is not easy. . . and pay attention to spine and sholder flexibility. That takes time to achieve !

Excellent work.

Very good work.

Great Cheng Style Bagua! I can see the Liu Jingru lineage is alive in you.

Wow that was beautiful, very nice movement

Un trabajo limpio y claro. Enhorabuena

Beautiful! Magnificent!

beautiful

Great to see Cheng style in South Africa, check out our new podcast on Baguazhang and the other internal arts.

Aang's all grown up :D

Thanks for the inspiration!

awesome so fluid!

Amazing, thank you so much ;) Hi from Belgium

Forms makes sense if you've studied martial arts but to someone on the outside it must like some fancy dance.

I used to think Bagua was all palm strikes, ridge hands, chops, but I see now there is lots of elbows, joint locks, and throws there

wonderful, hi from Paraguay!

BRILLIANT...THANK- YOU😊

Thanks for posting. I appreciate my brother Hans here. Every sincere student understands that kung fu is hard work. None understand it more than those that seek their skill in Pa Kua Chang. In watching Herr Menck executing the first Kua. It is clear and obvious that he has been training for several years already, if not more. Each of the three treasures require such commitment. I hope he keeps practice. And reaches new levels of skill. The trained eye will see at the end of the last Kua.The eighth one. That Herr Menck's back is saturated with sweat from his intensity, good. Overcome the darkness. Return the Light. Laoshr 60 CYKFA

Very nice!

I want to learn this!!!

Excelente. Very smooth and continuous. 👍👌✌️😄🙏

Crazy beautiful 🙏🏽🙏🏽

Great Bagua guy!!!

Absolutely stunning! ☺️ thank you….

Every time I watch an old video (this has been up for 12 years), I always wonder what has become of the student.

your bagua is looking awesome bro

Very nice - moves well.

Great! Greetings from Uruguay

changing is the key but dont forget the fundamentals and basics.

Wonderful !!!

brilliant !

Amazing .

Very nice! Yes, a little jerky at times but everyones different

hans is the man!

Han Yanwu is my master brother. that is why you practiced pretty good!

Wow. Impressive mastery

Incredible!

Magnificent.

I see the dragon, and its power. good work

If it wasn't done it would be amazing seeing this guy do applications of his Bagua the Fluidity would look amazing

Most excellent.

Awesome 👏!!!

Great work:) Regards .

Thgis is amazing! You get so LOW!

Mr. MENCK - Very Good Ba Qua Zhang demo - What Style of Ba Qua is this ? ?

high Respect!

I wasn’t expecting this to be so good. It’s rare to see westerners with skill in 中国武术

Admirable! Gracias por compartir!

That is some good Bagua!

Love it

I would love to know what styles were prevalent in the area where baguazhang was invented/discovered when it was.

that was DOPE!! Love it!

Half my family is fromSouth Africa!!!! My Mother is from Cape Town!

Less dynamic tension and more root with linkage. This stuff takes 20 years to master.

And when the world needed him most, he vanished.. Jaja this style has so much rotation! Got dizzy watching. Great to confuse someone too, I guess?

Air bending lol
