Xing Yi uses movements called the five classical Chinese elements to metaphorically represent five different states of combat.[23][35] Also called the & quot;Five Fists& quot; or & quot;Five Phases,& quot; the Five Elements are related to Taoist cosmology although the names do not literally correspond to the cosmological terms. These five movements make the & acute;base& acute; of the art,[36] upon which all further combative knowledge and skill is built upon. Most schools will teach the five elements before the twelve animals because they are easier and shorter to learn (though eventually more difficult to master).

This follows the five element theory, a general combat formula which assumes at least three outcomes of a fight; the constructive, the neutral, and the destructive. Practitioners abiding by these concepts train to react to and execute specific techniques in such a way that
