HISTORICAL CONTEXT
The spear has long been recognized as the 'King of Weapons' in the Chinese Martial Arts canon, and the Natural School (Ziranmen) preserves a unique and devastatingly efficient spear methodology. Founded by the legendary Du Xinwu, the Natural School focuses on spontaneous, fluid, and powerful movements that bypass the limitations of fixed forms. Master Du Feihu, a 3rd-generation heir and National First-Class Martial Arts Judge, presents this technical routine with the authority of a lineage guardian. Historically, spear training was the ultimate test of a practitioner's Internal Power and structural alignment, as the length of the weapon amplifies any flaws in the kinetic chain. This DVD provides a rare opportunity to study the Ziranmen spear, which is credited with building exceptional physical strength and penetrative force.
TECHNICAL PHILOSOPHY
The technical philosophy of the Natural School Spear is defined by its four primary qualities: it sticks like a snake putting out its tongue, whirls like billowy waves, haunts like a boomerang, and presses like a huge mountain. Unlike more ornamental styles, Ziranmen spear techniques are direct and combat-oriented. The Technical Routine emphasizes the 'Snake Tongue' thrust (Zha), which requires the practitioner to deliver a high-velocity strike along a single, precise line. The philosophy is to use the weapon as an extension of the Dantian, ensuring that every movement is guided by internal intent (Yi) rather than mere muscular effort. This creates a weapon that is both unpredictable and unstoppable.
BIOMECHANICAL ANALYSIS
Biomechanically, spear training is a masterclass in 'Body-Weapon Integration.' Master Du Feihu demonstrates how the power is initiated in the legs, amplified by the rotation of the waist (Kua), and transmitted through the spine to the tip of the spear. This 'Whole-Body Kinetic Chain' is essential for generating the penetrative power (Chuan Tou Li) characteristic of the style. The 'Snake Tongue' thrust utilizes the elastic recoil of the tendons, while the 'Mountain Press' (Ya) uses the skeletal structure to ground an opponent's force. The training also focuses on the 'Figure-8' whirling motions, which develop exceptional shoulder mobility and core stability, allowing the practitioner to control the spear's momentum with minimal effort.
PRACTICE AND APPLICATION
This DVD provides a systematic breakdown of the Ziranmen spear technical routine. Master Du Feihu begins with an introduction to the spear's unique properties, followed by a full-set demonstration. The instructional segments provide a detailed analysis of each action, focusing on the precision of the thrusts and the fluidity of the defensive parries. The 'Follow Me' section allows students to practice alongside the master, ensuring that the timing and rhythm of the movements are correctly understood. Regular practice of these Spear Drills not only enhances martial skill but also significantly builds the body's comprehensive strength and Internal Power, fulfilling the Ziranmen ideal of natural and efficient combat mastery.

Master Du Feihu
3rd Generation Successor of the Ziranmen (Natural Style) Lineage
Du Feihu is a distinguished martial artist and a pivotal figure in the 3rd generation of Ziranmen (the Natural Style). Following in the footsteps of the lineage's legendary founders and grandmasters, he has dedicated his life to the preservation of this unique internal system. He is recognized within the martial arts community for his commitment to maintaining the school’s core principles of spontaneity and practicality, ensuring that the legacy of Ziranmen remains intact in the modern era.
Martial Arts Background: Mastery of the "Natural" Path
Du Feihu’s background is rooted in the rigorous and often unconventional training methods of Ziranmen. His mastery encompasses the system’s foundational "Circle Walking" (Aizeng Bu) and the specialized conditioning required to develop the "Natural Power" (Ziran Jing). His training focused on the integration of internal intent and external movement, emphasizing the school’s philosophy of "moving without a fixed form" and the cultivation of explosive, reflexive force that responds naturally to any combat situation.
Legacy and Contribution: Preservation and Lineage Leadership
As a 3rd generation successor, Du Feihu has played a vital role in the transition of Ziranmen from a historically secretive art to a more structured discipline. He has focused on documenting the specific technical requirements and the "Methodless Method" that define the school. Through his teaching, he has mentored a new generation of practitioners, ensuring that the subtle mechanics and combat logic of the lineage are passed down with technical precision while upholding the traditional martial ethics of his predecessors.
Artistic Style: Fluid Spontaneity and Reflexive Power
His style is characterized by the hallmark Ziranmen aesthetic of "softness on the outside, hardness on the inside." His movements are unscripted and highly adaptable, reflecting the principle that the body should react to an opponent as naturally as a shadow follows a form. In his practice, one can observe a lack of rigid posture, replaced by a fluid, continuous motion that conceals sudden, penetrating strikes. His execution embodies the essence of "Natural"—efficient, unpretentious, and devoid of any unnecessary ornamentation.
