The 8 Pieces of Brocade

 
Eight Pieces of Silk

During the Song Dynasty (960-1280 AD), Marshal Yue Fei (1127-1280 AD), creator of Eagle-Claw Boxing and Hsing-I, used Da Mo’s Yi Jin Jing exercises as a base to create twelve exercises to improve the health of his soldiers.

 

These were known as The ‘Twelve Pieces Of Brocade’ or Shi Er Duan Jin. Through the years they were simplified into eight exercises, and became known as the ‘Eight Pieces Of Brocade’ or Ba Duan Jin.

Many variations have come to exist, including sitting versions.

Learn these eight movements and improve your health and vitality.
