Combat Techniques of Taiji, Xingyi, and Bagua: Principles and Practices of Internal Martial Arts. The earliest references to Chinese martial arts are found in the Spring and Autumn Annals (5th century BCE), where a hand to hand combat theory, including the integration of notions of “hard” and “soft” techniques, is mentioned. Maybe the way of teaching of Yang Shou Chung was not very explicit, each disciple had to figure out some principles for themselves, with different results.

Especially when Yip Man crosses hands with the three hidden masters in the Golden Tower, we can recognize at a glance - Xingyi, Bagua and the mixed styles of the Southern Arts, it is right proportion of action and beauty. A lot of the things the Systema guys do seem to come from the Internal Arts and I believe they have some training that would be very beneficial for those of us who want to keep to more of the martial side of BGZ without too much emphasis on the more esoteric internal arts traditions.

But that's Xing Yi can be traced back to the late Ming era, wheras Tai Chi and Bagua emerged later (but no one knows how long they have been handed down in secret).
