Qing Ping Jian (Straight Sword) | 杨氏青萍剑

Qing Ping Sword （青萍剑）began in Northern Song Dynasty (960 – 1279). The martial art concept was created in the Long Mian Mountains of An Hui Province (安徽龙眠). Long Mian's literal translation is “where the dragon sleeps”. Based on historical records, Qing Ping is an evolution of Chung Yang Sword. It was the tradition to pass on the knowledge of these martial art forms through masters. Since the creation of Qing Ping, there have been over 17 generations of masters and students. Qing Ping was viewed by ancient practitioners as a jewel-like treasure, and as a result, is one of the most famous and deep-rooted ancient sword forms in China. It is taught through deep contemplation and teaches the disciples through meaningful poems.
