THE EVOLUTION OF FORCE: Shi Li AND Cao Fist
Following the foundational training of Zhan Zhuang, the next critical phase in Dacheng Quan (Yiquan) is Shi Li, or 'Try Force.' Master Feng Hongcan, a direct disciple of the founder Wang Xiangzhai, provides an expert breakdown of this difficult and often misunderstood phase of internal training. Shi Li is the process of taking the internal power developed in static stances and learning to maintain it during slow, deliberate movement. It is the bridge between stillness and explosive combat. This volume also introduces Cao Fist, the practical boxing method of Dacheng Quan. Together, these methods represent the 'Technical Routine' of the system, transforming internal potential into practical martial efficacy. Master Feng’s decades of experience allow him to explain the 'Force Perception' required to master these advanced internal mechanics.
TECHNICAL DYNAMICS OF Try Force (Shi Li)
Shi Li is described as 'knowing force by trying.' The practitioner moves with extreme slowness, as if moving through water or pulling silk, to ensure that the kinetic chain remains unbroken and the internal pressure is constant. Master Feng demonstrates various Shi Li methods, focusing on the 'Six Directions of Force'—forward, backward, up, down, left, and right. The biomechanics involve the 'Python Waist' and the coordination of the joints to ensure that the 'Hun Yuan Li' (Universal Force) is present in every millimeter of movement. This training is essential for developing the 'Listening Power' (Ting Jin) necessary to neutralize an opponent's attack and find the path of least resistance for a counter-strike. It is a masterclass in fluid structure and internal alchemy.
Cao Fist AND COMBAT APPLICATION
Cao Fist represents the transition into more dynamic movement and striking. Unlike traditional forms, Cao Fist focuses on the spontaneous expression of power guided by intent. Master Feng illustrates how the power cultivated in Shi Li is released through the fists in sudden bursts of Explosive Force (Fa-Jin). The training emphasizes 'Body-Mind Integration,' where the strikes are not isolated arm movements but are powered by the entire body’s momentum. The footwork is agile and responsive, allowing the practitioner to close the distance or evade an attack while maintaining a rooted structure. This DVD provides a detailed instructional guide to these 'Esoteric Secrets' of Dacheng Quan, offering practitioners a clear roadmap to achieving 'Great Achievement' (Dacheng) through persistent and scrupulous study. It is a vital resource for anyone seeking to understand the practical combat depth of Wang Xiangzhai’s revolutionary martial system.

Master Feng Hongcan
Feng Hongcan - Cheng-style Baguazhang
Feng Hongcan is a distinguished practitioner and educator of Cheng-style Baguazhang. He is recognized for his technical precision and his role in documenting the traditional forms and applications of the Cheng lineage, making him a respected figure in the broader Chinese martial arts community.
Lineage and Background
Feng Hongcan is a successor within the Cheng Tinghua lineage. His practice emphasizes the classic "Swimming Body" (游身) characteristics of the style, which focuses on the interconnectedness of movement and the ability to change directions seamlessly while maintaining internal pressure.
Lineage: Inheritor of the Cheng-style Baguazhang tradition.
Expertise: He is known for his deep understanding of the "Old Eight Palms" (Lao Ba Zhang) and the tactical application of Baguazhang in combat scenarios.
Coaching: Feng has been active in teaching and demonstrating the art, focusing on preserving the authentic flavor of the Beijing-based Cheng branch.
Instructional Media and Resources
Feng Hongcan has contributed significantly to the availability of Cheng-style resources through instructional videos and demonstrations. His materials are valued for their clarity and emphasis on the internal mechanics that drive external movements. Key areas of his teaching include:
The Old Eight Palms (Lao Ba Zhang): Detailed breakdowns of the primary palm changes that form the bedrock of the Cheng system.
Baguazhang Weapons: Demonstrations of traditional weapons such as the Baguadao (Broadsword) and the Baguajian (Straight Sword), showing how the circular body mechanics translate to weaponry.
Combat Applications: Unlike purely aesthetic demonstrations, Feng often highlights the martial intent (Yi) behind the movements, explaining how the circular walking is used to bypass an opponent's defense.
Core Technical Characteristics
Feng Hongcan's demonstrations typically showcase the specific technical requirements of the Cheng lineage:
Body Mechanics: Heavy emphasis on the "Hollow Chest and Plucked Back" (Han Xiong Ba Bei) and the "Lowering of the Qi to the Dantian."
The Dragon Claw Palm: Proper execution of the open-palm position to facilitate the "Spiral Force" (Chan Si Jin) through the arms.
Agility and Stability: A focus on the "Mud-Wading Step" (Tang Ni Bu), ensuring that the practitioner remains grounded yet highly mobile while traversing the circle.
