Jiang Rongqiao's Baguazhang - Zhang Zhankui
Recently I got an old book (published 1964) about Baguazhang by Jiang Rongqiao. The book's title is "Baguazhang". Anybody knows what style of Baguazhang that Jiang practiced? He mentioned a name, Zhang Zhankui, as his teacher. Who was Zhang? Was he one of Dong Haichuan's student?
Wish For Peace
I don't study ba gua but...
I did an internet search and found this at http://www.fortunecity.com/olympia/l...masters-e.html : " Zhang Zhankui (1859-1940), nickname - Zhaodong. He was from Hebei province. He studied mizongquan, later - xingyiquan from Liu Qilan. In Tianjin he met Cheng Tinghua, became Dong Haichuan's student. At 1911 was one of the founders of "Zhonghua wushi hui" ("Assotiation of China warriors") in Tianjin. At september of 1918 together with Li Cuiyi, Han Muxia and Li Jianqiu moved to Beijing to the "Tournament of powermen from 10.000 countries" to defeat russian KangTaiEr."
Hope this helps:)
