Emperors Long Fist (Tai Tzu Chang Chuan) Emperor’s Long Fist (Ba Gua Chan “Tai Chi Chuan” Hsing-I) The internal arts Tai Chi, Ba Gua, and Hsing-I are taught collectively at our school as the Emperor’s Long Fist system. Emperor’s Long Fist (Tai Tzu Chang Chuan) was created in Sung dynasty China by Emperor Chao Kuang Yin in 960 A.D., and is the root of all other Tai Chi styles. Ba Gua and Hsing-I, the sister arts to Tai Chi, were also incorporated. These internal arts emphasize the cultivation of Qi (a.k.a. Chi, Ki, life energy, etc.) for use in combat rather than external muscular force. Thousands of Chinese and a growing number of Westerners practice internal arts (especially Tai Chi) for health and longevity.
