Something I was wondering about.. do any other gungfu styles have a specific set of 20+ Zhao that are trained as solo forms? Gao houtien work like this and I as far as I know having set piece specific combos practiced and laid out as solo forms is pretty unusual for baguazhang. Is this uncommon in other styles of gungfu ? (I ask because I recognize I'm pretty ignorant when you get beyond bagua, taiji and xingyi).
