Mizhongyi
By Chris Crudelli
Although we cannot be sure of the exact origin of Mizhongyi, has become exceptionally popular through the famous master, Huo Yuanjia who was a practitioner and head of the famous martial arts school in Shanghai, Jing Wu association.
Using his style he defeated martial artists from all over the world and he has been the subject of many popular films, most recently by Jet Li. Bruce Lee also made a movie about the Life of Huo Yuanjia and the difficulties he experienced in Shanghai during the Japanese occupation.
dodging, springing and shifting like a leopard changes its mood,
jumping and changing the steps are illusive but spectacular,
back and forth like a tiger.
Mud tilling steps are just too swift for the opponent;
the left foot has hardly landed and the right follows,
the right foot has yet to set down but the left sets in,
internal power is generated by dropping the shoulders and elbows,
hand going up like lifting a cauldron or sparrow piercing through the bushes,
hands coming down like splitting a brick,
or a swallow gliding over the water.
Embrace sets in, reverse, like glue, roll, snap and lift, stick, pull & grab,
push up, intercept, hammer, deflect and squeeze, movements of the hands, eyes body and the steps are well coordinated in all strategies;
