Pak Mei Wu Chi Yun Gung Fu is a traditional form of Martial Art and dates back 6,000 years. Pak-Mei was fostered by the legendary Lon-Emperor, Huang-Ti and has been perpetuated by the renowned Warrior Monks of the Shaolin Temple; the Wu-Dan, Kun-Dun, Qu'an-Lon, Di-Mei, Pak-Wu, Pak-Mei and Yellow Mountain regions and the O'Mei Mountain Monastery. For Centuries Grand master So-Qyin-Chan, a Taoist priest and Gung Fu, Pak-Mei Grand master has long been considered a Patriarch of the Chinese art, he is the driving force behind a system, which effectively blends the traditions of the ancient west with the vibrancy of the awakening North, and South.
The true Pak-Mei Disciples are committed to the cultivation of mind, body and spirit. They pursue this through their Grand Master's unique combination of classical Gung Fu, and Taoist Buddhist meditation and fighting techniques.
Many Grand Masters study the ways of many animals - they watch to see the ways that wind and water move. Pak-Mei-Wu-Chi-Yun contains much more than many people think.
It is known that Buddhist monks travelled into the East and West of China, spreading their knowledge to the people they met. Masters from these parts of China now say it was they that taught the Buddhist Monks from the North of China when they came on their travels and not the other way around.
Many people believe that Pak-Mei comes from Southern China but it actually comes form Northern China, with Masters going from the North into the South. The origins of the style are that in the North the styles are Long Fist and in the South they are short range.
Short can also mean close fighting and is considered to be Hakka by origin, whereas Northern styles utilize more set forms like Katas in Karate. There are many exercises and real Pak-Mei is physically hard yet supple. Weapons can be used in the same way as hand techniques but are not as important as mastering hand techniques or sets.
The style is so hard that many who practice this style never gain high grades. Also instructors never like giving too much away. Instructors, Masters, Monks, and Taoist Priests work away from others or behind closed doors and this is why there is not much information about the style Pak-Mei-Wu-Chi-Yun.
The Chi in Wu Chi Yun
According to many great Masters, the human body is guided by Chi, the life force that is centred in the lower abdomen. The Chi is a source of great energy and by performing certain exercises such as those taught by the sons of protected light.
A Taoist Monk named Chang San-Feng and a Buddhist Chang-Wang-Ting mastered Chi and past many exercises onto others, and found that much of this knowledge would work with Pak Mei Gung Fu, and so Wu Chi Yun became part of Pak Mei.
Chi can work in many ways, it allows the human body to do great things without getting hurt, it gives great powers to do other things, many Gung Fu systems use Chi and many styles have Chi in the named styles just like Wu Chi Yun.
The Belief is that Chi is in everybody, we all have great strength in ourselves and at sometime in life we will all use it. Many true Masters have different methods or beliefs in Chi, many like to get energies from plants and trees which help with breathing and energy.
