HISTORICAL CONTEXT
The Longmen Taijiquan Old Frame Second Routine (Lao Jia Er Lu) is a profound expression of the Quanzhen Longmen Sect's internal martial heritage. This lineage, which dates back centuries to the legendary Qiu Chuji, integrates Taoist internal alchemy with sophisticated combat mechanics. Master Li Fajun, the 29th generation successor and head of the Longmen Boxing school, presents this routine with the authority of a lineage holder. Historically, the second routine of the old frame was designed to bridge the gap between slow, meditative cultivation and the explosive requirements of high-level martial engagement. It represents a transition from the 'soft' foundation to the manifestation of 'hard' Internal Power, preserved through generations within the Daoist temples of China.
TECHNICAL PHILOSOPHY
The technical philosophy of this routine centers on the principle of 'Intent Leading the Way' (Xin Yi Yin Ling). The practitioner focuses their mind to direct the flow of Qi to the extremities (Shao Jie). The movement quality is described as 'moving like a river and being still like a mountain.' A core concept is Silk Reeling (Chansi Jin), where force is generated through a continuous, spiraling motion similar to drawing raw silk from a cocoon. Unlike the first routine, the second routine emphasizes sudden, unexpected discharges of power (Fa-Jin) that mimic the swaying of a pine tree in a storm. The philosophy is 'Dao Follows Nature,' seeking a state where the practitioner's internal energy and external form are perfectly unified.
BIOMECHANICAL ANALYSIS
Biomechanically, the Second Routine is an intensive study in rotational torque and structural alignment. Master Li Fajun demonstrates how the power is initiated in the Dantian and transmitted through a 'Whole-Body Kinetic Chain.' The movements involve complex 'Spiral Waist and Turning Belly' (Xuan Yao Ning Du) mechanics, which engage the deep fascia and core stabilizers. The 'Sectional Connection' (Jie Jie Guan Chuan) ensures that force is transmitted without leakage through every joint. The routine utilizes the 'Opening and Closing' (Kai He) of the joints to store and release internal pressure, allowing for explosive strikes that carry the momentum of the entire physique while maintaining structural buoyancy (Peng).
PRACTICE AND APPLICATION
This DVD provides a meticulous breakdown of the technical routine, focusing on the coordination of intent, breath, and physical force. Master Li explains the 'Four Images' (Si Xiang) logic embedded within the forms. Regular practice of this routine not only enhances combat efficiency but also promotes profound health and longevity. The continuous, spiraling movements massage the internal organs and improve joint mobility. By following the lineage-based guidance of Master Li Fajun, practitioners can master the complexities of the Longmen Old Frame, achieving a state of martial excellence and internal harmony that transcends the physical form.

Master Li Fajun
Biographical Profile: Li Fajun
Taoist Master of Wudang and Guardian of Internal Alchemy Martial Arts
Li Fajun is a prominent Taoist priest and a highly respected master of the Wudang martial arts tradition. Deeply rooted in the Taoist temples of the Wudang Mountains, he represents the authentic integration of "Dao" (the Way) and "Wu" (the Martial), focusing on the cultivation of internal energy and the preservation of ancient Taoist health-preserving techniques.
Martial Arts Background: Taoist Lineage and Internal Mastery
Master Li’s martial journey is inseparable from his Taoist faith. He was trained within the strict monastic traditions of Wudang, mastering the Wudang Xuanwu and Sanfeng lineages. His expertise encompasses Wudang Taijiquan, the Fuchen (Taoist Whisk), and the Wudang Sword, all of which are practiced not merely as combat arts but as forms of moving meditation and internal alchemy (Neidan). His background emphasizes the principle of "overcoming hardness with softness" and the synchronization of breath with cosmic energy.
Legacy and Contribution: Promoting the Way of Wudang
As a senior figure in the Wudang Taoist martial arts community, Master Li has played a vital role in sharing these once-secretive practices with the public. He has participated in numerous cultural exchanges, demonstrating the unique aesthetic and philosophical depth of Taoist kung fu. His contribution lies in his ability to articulate the relationship between Taoist philosophy (such as Yin-Yang and the Five Elements) and physical movement, making Wudang martial arts a vehicle for spiritual and physical well-being.
Artistic Style: Ethereal Fluidity and Internal Power
His style is characterized by an ethereal, cloud-like fluidity and a profound sense of internal calm. Li Fajun’s movements are circular, continuous, and driven by intent rather than muscular tension. In his practice, every strike and transition reflects the Taoist ideal of naturalness (Ziran). He is particularly known for his mastery of Internal Power (Neigong), where the strength is hidden deep within the softness of the form, manifesting only at the moment of impact with effortless precision.
