Hsing-I: Chinese Mind Boxing

Hsing-I, translated from Chinese as mind/heart boxing, is an internal system of Chinese boxing, meditation, chi gong, and combative techniques. Hsing-I is a practical fighting system that has been used for centuries for effective self defense. It was developed in ancient China by Taoist monks during 1127-1276 AD. Hsing-I goes way beyond a system of punching and kicking. It is rooted in the ancient Taoist philosophies of the five element theory and in Chinese healing. Use the five elements and twelve animal forms of Hsing-I, and apply them toward health, combat, and Taoist philosophy.
