Striking and Throwing Combined

In Baguazhang there is no separation of striking and throwing. They're used at the same time, working with one another, to constantly force the opponent to have to adapt to the changing attacks.

打中有摔，摔中有打，打摔结合

{Within striking (dǎ) there is throwing (shuāi), within throwing there is striking, striking and throwing are integrated.}
