With single and double palm change, it completes the fundamental training of overall body use in Ba gua zhang. The form is designed to teach the ability to move the body at oblique angles that are very useful for standing grappling defense as well as spiral throwing techniques. The Snake form is also excellent exercise for spinal mobility, posture and core strength as it involves a dynamic, twisting back arch movement, as well as teaching how to change levels rapidly from high to low. Hawk is a variation of the Double Palm Change and teaches the ability to spin rapidly on one leg, making it excellent training for balance and rotational stability. Technically it introduces foot catching and trapping techniques as well as practical standing joint locking techniques.
