THE SECRET FOUNDATION OF ZHAOBAO TAIJIQUAN
The Overture of Boxing, famously known as 'Make Nine-Sound Without Touching the Ground' (Jiu Xiang Bu Luo Di), is a rare and historically guarded foundation routine of the Traditional Zhaobao Taijiquan system. Passed down from the great Taiji master Guo Shikui, this routine was traditionally never shown to the public. It serves as the essential Technical Routine that prepares the practitioner for the advanced 72 forms of Zhaobao Taijiquan. The name 'Nine-Sound' refers to the explosive sounds generated through advanced kinetic alignment and internal power release (Fa-Jin) while the practitioner appears to move with such agility that they barely touch the ground. This DVD, demonstrated by gold medalist Wang Chang'an, provides a rare window into this elite internal training method.
TECHNICAL MASTERY AND BIOMECHANICS
The Overture focuses on developing extreme agility in the body and speed in the legs. Biomechanically, it trains the 'rolling' transition between postures, where the center of gravity shifts with fluid precision. The requirement that 'all sounds are made in the air' indicates a mastery of explosive force generated from the core, rather than relying on ground impact. Master Wang Chang'an meticulously explains how to maintain a continuous flow between points, ensuring that the body remains agile and the transitions are executed without hesitation. This routine is the 'essence' of the Zhaobao style, emphasizing the small circles within big circles and the coordination of the 'Three Uprights' and 'Four Smoothnesses' that define the lineage's unique biomechanical structure.
LINEAGE AND PRACTITIONER DEVELOPMENT
As a direct disciple of Master Guo Shikui, Wang Chang'an brings an unparalleled level of authority to this instructional work. For the practitioner, mastering the Overture is the key to unlocking the functional power of the Zhaobao system. It builds the necessary leg strength, cardiovascular endurance, and internal coordination required for high-level combat application. This DVD is part of the Chinese Wushu Series and represents a significant effort to preserve and share the 'hidden' aspects of Taijiquan. Whether you are a dedicated Zhaobao stylist or a general practitioner of internal arts, this program offers a deep dive into the foundational mechanics that transform standard movement into high-level martial art. It is a professional guide to the internal alchemy and physical agility that characterize the Zhaobao heritage.

Biographical Profile: Wang Chang'an
The Arbiter of Wushu Excellence and Architect of Competitive Rules
Wang Chang’an, born in Shanghai in 1929, is a 9th Duan holder in Chinese Wushu, a National-level Coach, and a world-renowned International Wushu Referee. He is one of the founding architects of modern competitive Wushu regulations and is revered in the martial arts community as the "Living Encyclopedia of Wushu Rules."
Martial Arts Background: Elite Lineage and Deep Foundation
Master Wang began his training early in life under the legendary Cha Quan grandmaster Ma Jinyuan, systematically mastering Cha Quan, weaponry, and Chinese Wrestling (Shuai Jiao). He not only inherited the robust combat skills of traditional Wushu but also successfully integrated them with modern sports science. As a legendary coach of the Shanghai Wushu Team, he has cultivated numerous elite athletes and high-level coaches for China.
Legacy and Contribution: A Pioneer of Standardization
Master Wang’s most significant contribution lies in the scientific construction of Wushu competition regulations. Since the 1950s, he has played a pivotal role in drafting and refining China's national Wushu rules. As an international referee, he has been a mainstay at Asian and World Wushu Championships, known for his rigor and impartiality. His publications, including the Wushu Competition Rules and key sections of the Encyclopedia of Chinese Wushu, remain the definitive standards for scoring and technical evaluation.
Artistic Style: Rigorous Precision and Integrity
His mastery is reflected in his relentless pursuit of technical precision. He advocates that "virtue precedes skill, and every strike must follow a principle," believing that Wushu must possess both the soul of combat and the discipline of art. His lifelong dedication perfectly illustrates the spirit of rule-of-law and cultural elevation within the modernization of Chinese Wushu.
