You can follow along or just watch and take mental notes about this taolu. It is short and sweet, basic and good for training fundamentals.
More about BBLHQ
Ba Bu Lian Huan Quan is an interesting form. It contains elements similar to Cha Quan and Chang Quan; long linear strikes, high kicks, wide and low stances. It is similar to Lian Huan Quan or Wu Bu Quan in its abundance of non Shaolin flavors that look to be borrowed from other styles.
