Vestibular System – Gravitational Confidence

Posted on

The vestibular system is improved through refined biomechanic training of the body, further enhanced by expanding protective reflexes during fight or flight mode. Methodical circle walking with tight diameters provide a foundation for the development of sensory systems such as touch, vision, sound, and proprioception. The simple yet challenging mechanics of Baguazhang sharpen the central nervous system and remain crucial for the development of balance, motor control of the eye, bilateral coordination (the ability to fully use both sides of the body). Military-grade Bagua strengthens our tolerance to motion under stress and develops the trust of movement in elite conditions. Gravitational confidence, in turn, ensures our ability to maintain position, orientation, and balance within the surrounding environment- protecting the body from injury during a fight or when avoiding one.
