Words from Bruce Frantzis - Founder, Energy Arts Inc.: "Welcome to the Bagua Mastery Program, the most comprehensive learning guide ever created for Bagua. The lineage of this program was passed down over thousands of years from Master to student in China, where I learned it from Master Liu Hung Chieh. As an American kid from New York, I know his decision to take me on as a student was not an easy one – but I believe his decision to be prophetic. The world needs Bagua, now more than ever.

No man can argue that we’ve seen some incredible advancements in modern times. As a society, we have accomplished incredible feats in the name of technology and production.

But as we collectively ‘hunch’ over computers for long periods of time… Sit under artificial lights… Worry over deadlines… Stress about the family… And over-stimulate our nervous systems with coffee and unnatural foods…

I must ask… Are we to forgo health, strength and peace of mind in the name of progress?

Are we to be resigned to ill-health, pain, worry and anxiety?

Must you accept body aches, pains, and stress as inevitable?

Or will you take Action? Seek Truth? And Re-discover Vitality?

I invite you to be one of the few who finds renewed strength in the living art of Bagua.

Frankly, it’s concerning to me how many people accept mediocrity into their lives without question, but you need not be one of these people.

This is not a diatribe against modern society or the West, this is a Call for you to become something Greater. To BecomePowerful. Strong. And Vital.

Bagua will help counteract the heaviness of everyday stress, anxiety and frustration, so that you can thrive.

Bagua speaks a universal language at the center of every man and woman that is coded into your DNA…

Monks of a forgotten time imprinted this code into the text of the I-Ching: Book of Changes and perfected circular meditative movements designed to enhance human evolution.

Over time, Bagua has evolved to include potent martial arts moves that served as the primary fighting method for the Guards to the Chinese Dynasty.

Whatever the reason you choose Bagua, you’ll recognize its power in the form of better health, increased flexibility, elevated Chi, expanded awareness and great strength.

I look forward to hearing from you in the Bagua Mastery community as you begin to clear energetic blockages and awaken to your innate internal power."

The I Ching, Book of Changes, and the 8 Trigrams

Deep within the Kunlun Mountains records have been found in monasteries that are over 4,000 years old. They tell of Taoist monks who would hold various mudras (specific hand shapes) and recite mantras (prayers and incantations) while walking in circular patterns.

Bagua is said to be descended from these original practices and recorded in the I-Ching: Book of Changes. The 8 elemental trigrams are represented in the form of a Single Palm Change, which is the basis of the Bagua Mastery Program.

The 8 Elemental Trigrams:

Heaven | Lake | Fire | Thunder | Wind | Water | Mountain | Earth

Walking the Circle

Walking the Circle creates a vortex of energy that builds to empower and strengthen you, while helping to create a 360-degree awareness.

This sphere of energy is ideal for martial arts and fighting applications, but it also taps into a higher vibrational state that quiets the mind and generates a new perception of time.

Palm Changes and the Single Palm Change

The various combinations of arm movements in bagua are called palm changes.

The most important and foundational palm change is the Single Palm Change because it incorporates every element of the trigram and allows for seamless transitions between movements.

Holding the palm posture of the Single Palm Change while Walking the Circle is how you focus chi, transfer energy, reduce stress, and build incredible strength.

Bagua as a Powerful Spiritual Practice

The I-Ching contains two and half millennia of spiritual wisdom within its pages and Bagua represents this wisdom in physical form.

Only direct experience with advanced Bagua is adequate to truly know the spiritual power of the practice. Words always fail in comparison…
