By: Chéng, Yìchén

Bafaquan is a Chinese martial art that is occasionally translated as "Eight Methods Fist" or "Eight Methods Boxing." Its emphasis is on eight fundamental methods or techniques, including grappling, striking, kicking, and joint-locking techniques. Bafaquan is renowned for its emphasis on versatility and adaptability in combat situations, in addition to its fluid and circular movements.
Bafaquan, similar to numerous traditional Chinese martial arts, places equal emphasis on the cultivation of internal fortitude (neijin) and external prowess. For talent development, practitioners frequently engage in forms (sequences of movements), partner drills, and sparring.
Bafaquan, which originated in Chinese martial arts, has undergone a process of evolution and diversification over time, encompassing various lineages and interpretations, much like numerous other traditional styles. Similar to other branches of martial arts, the particulars of technique and training may differ among schools and instructors.
