Welcome!  This iDaqiang site is to promote a new modern daqiang (lance) sport originated by Dr.James Guo with its origins based on the use of daqiang in ancient Chinese battlefields (armies).  The art of daqiang as a primary killing weapon in ancient (Chinese) battlefields is unique in how the weapon was used for both offence and defense (differing from European lance).  It was an economical and effective weapon to equip large ancient armies.   Largely lost in paintings and ancient literature, it has been a long endeavor for Dr. James Guo to recreate daqiang from his foundation in (traditional) Chinese martial arts.  Over more than 30 years of study and experimentation he has revived the daqiang in the context of a sport that is safe, fun, economical and preserves as best as possible the training and fighting techniques that made daqiang a primary weapon in past.  Once you participate our introductory course, you will be able to have the fun with DaQiang.
