John R. Allen of Ohio had a kung fu video company that sold “rare and exotic” forms such as
circular xingyi, linear pakua, shaolin tai chi, northern dragon, and something called “white lotus.”
Can anyone elaborate on these arts? If an American sifu teches a form so rare that the chinese know nothing of it, you must 1der if it’s real or made up, yes? Now many cultures have tai chi-like forms, even the thais (see Dennis Chan teaching JCVD a tai chi like art in KICKBOXER, that is real.)
But since tai chi is a taoist art and shaolin is buddhist? what gives?
