Ba Gua is the only martial art specifically designed for simultaneous defense against multiple attackers. This means that the BG practitioner must
rely on strategies and techniques to deal with all those opponents crowding him at the same moment. Dzuo Ma, or "Walking the Horse" is one of those
key strategies. It involves placing slight pressure against one attacker from the back or shoulder while you are dealing with another. Am essential drill for every serious Ba Gua practitioner.
