“A student of footwork beats a master of the fist”
Footwork is the most fundamental aspect of training in traditional Chinese martial arts. Seasoned martial artists often observe that the strength of western martial arts is in the upper body, and the strength of Chinese martial arts is in the lower body. Foot- and stancework is the key to efficient movement and power generation. Accordingly, training footwork has priority over a number of other skills, and in many lineages, over two thirds of the training is dedicated to 步法 (Bu Fa, stepping methods).
In this course, you will be taken through all the most fundamental stance & stepping practices required for you to master Shaolin boxing. One of our lineage’s most recognizable features are the clean, precise stances, taught with attention to detail and practical reasoning. The course will be available to you indefinitely once you have purchased it.
