The Bagua sword, known as the turning sword, can help practitioners develop full body coordination, strength and endurance. This DVD begins with an introduction to basic nomenclature and rules for gripping the sword. He Jinbao then systematically explains and demonstrates all sixteen foundational Bagua sword attack methods. Three variants of each attack method are given, for a total of forty-eight individual sword techniques.
