I have studied with SHIFU Hatza for over 9 years and echo many of the sentiments from the other reviewers. Having studied other martial arts systems prior to starting pa kua, I find it to be a very practical and effective fighting system that teaches the student to defend/attack from various angles, utilizing all parts of the body, depending upon the distance and angle. Very fast moving with terrific footwork. The chi gung and breathing/meditation offers tremendous health benefits. Because it is an internal art, it is a martial art that can be practiced for a lifetime. Plus, SHIFU Greg is a terrific teacher and a nice guy.
