Mizongquan is an old style dating back to the Song Dynasty. It is
characterized by abrupt changes in speed and direction, thus confusing
your opponent. This is the primary goal in Mizong, to make your
opponent lose his fighting direction and quickly defeat him by
taking advantage of his confusion. Mizong has been very popular
for a long period of Chinese history even extending beyond China's
borders. Yet today Mizong is relatively rare. Part of the reason
may be its name which means Lost Track. And that's not just a poetic
description because Mizong is well known for its' basic strategic
goal: to completely confuse an opponent.
