Playing Mortal Kombat a few years ago, I found one of the many martial art styles interesting, mostly because of the name, which has such a graceful sound to it. It is unsurprising that the martial art itself, called Piguaquan (劈挂拳), actually is a martial art comprising graceful yet swift form and movement. It originated in Hebei, but its name has spread to such places as Taiwan. Unfortunately (or fortunately), most instructional guides are in Chinese.
