	Hsing-i
		Hsing-i Ch'uan is an internal form whose name means "the boxing form given shape by thought," which indicates a great unity of thought and action.
		Hsing-i is based upon the theory of the Five Elements, and its rudiments include "five fists": 1) splitting (metal), 2) drilling (water), 3) crushing (wood), 4) pounding (fire), and 5) crossing (earth).
		The movement of Hsing-i is basically linear, and it uses mostly vertical strength and the closed fist.

	Hsing-I Opener
		Hsing-i’s practitioners are military in approach — marching in straight lines, with a powerful emphasis at the end of every technique on mentally or physically taking an enemy down.
		Hsing-i possesses either the same or similar primary goals as other more external fighting arts, such as karate or boxing, but includes the chi work, health aspects, and ability to be martially effective into old age that most of the external martial arts lack.
		The perspective of hsing-i is, as mentioned, militaristic: define the mission, do whatever it takes to win, preferably with minimal damage, but without qualms about inflicting whatever degree of pain or damage the situation calls for.

		Since Hsing Yi movements are relatively simple from outlook, if one does not know the correct alignment of body structure and does not execute the movements in an integrated manner (most practitioners thought they do but they actually don't), it does look like an external style.
		Thus, the strategy of Hsing Yi in combat is to form a solid, stable, and spring-like body structure and drive this structure directly and forcefully toward the center of the opponent.
		This movement, which is the first movement in many Hsing Yi demonstration forms, is often confused with the splitting fist which is the first one in the five-element fists.

		Hsing-i helped to reinforce this Chinese idea through the use of the five element theory as it relates to the five "fists" of hsing-i.
		In hsing-i withdrawal is performed either to draw the opponent forward while setting him up for a counterattack or; to give yourself additional room to maneuver before delivering your counterattack.
		Hsing-i considers such withdrawal techniques secondary and concentrates on closing distance to inhibit the opponent's movement.

		Case in point: Hsing-Jing, known as the essence of Hsing-I. Made to turn the older art's already powerful techniques into street-savvy moves with massacre power, Hsing-Jing could be China's most combat-oriented traditional system.
		"Hsing-I is an internal style; it's also known as 'mind boxing.' There's a lot of qigong development associated with the initial posture of Hsing-I such as the opening posture or san ti stance, and the three essentials," says Chema.
		In other examples of Hsing-Jing differences, Chema notes that the "crushing move" is opened up a bit more in Hsing-Jing, and that the hands are not always held in the traditional Hsing-I pocket, which is at the sides of the waist, but are in a more combat defensive position to the front of the body.
