3- The 18 Daoist Palms

ABOUT

WAVES OF THE DRAO, THE HIDDEN STRENGTH OF 18 PALMS (道浪十八,掌力隱藏) In this course, disciples are introduced to the Sup Baat Douh Jeung (十八道掌 – 18 Daoist Palms), one of the sacred transmissions of the Doo Family (Doo Gā Kyùhn 杜家拳). Rooted in Daoist cultivation, this system blends internal energy with martial expression, uniting softness and hardness, emptiness and fullness, yin and yang. The 18 Daoist Palms embody the balance between Heaven (tīn 天), Earth (deih 地), and Human (yàn 人). Students will study how intention (yi 意), breath (hei 氣), and structure (sàu faat 手法) work together to create both healing energy and combat power. ✅ What You Will Learn ✔️ Foundations of the 18 Palms Origins of the Sup Baat Douh Jeung in Daoist tradition Symbolic meaning of the number 18 in martial philosophy ✔️ Palm Methods (Jeung Faat 掌法) Striking, redirecting, and issuing power with open-hand energy Cultivating both yielding softness and explosive release ✔️ Breathing and Energy Flow (Hei Gung 氣功) Daoist breathing methods for health and longevity Circulating energy through palm strikes and healing touch ✔️ Combat Application How to transform palm methods into fighting strategy Training tactile sensitivity and redirection (ting ging 聽勁) ✔️ Healing and Internal Development Palms as both destructive and restorative forces Connection to Daoist medicine and energy healing ✔️ Lineage Transmission (Doo Gā Kyùhn 杜家拳) How the Doo Family preserved this art through closed-door discipleship Responsibility of disciples to safeguard both martial and healing aspects ✔️ Spiritual Philosophy The Daoist worldview of balance between yin and yang Cultivating the sam 心 (heart-mind) in alignment with the Dao
