Pa kua chang, also known as baguazhang, literally means "eight trigram palm" and is an internal martial art attributed to Dong Haichuan in early 19th century China. Baguazhang has its roots in Taoism and Buddhism and is characterized by spinning movements, evasive footwork and the practice of circle walking. Baguazhang, xingyi and tai chi are the three major internal or Nèijiā Chinese martial arts. The Pa Kua Chang Journal was edited by Dan Miller and dives deeply into this facinating martial and healing art.
