Chang-Chuan

Chang-chuan is a long fist Chinese boxing style developed by Master Kuo I around the first century AD. It appears to be the origin of many Wushu arts. It is characterized by strong stances, high kicks, and a variety of hand techniques. Its movements are so graceful that they have been used by the Chinese opera. It has recently become a popular style in forms competition.

White Eyebrow

A medium range defensive fighting system. The White Eyebrow practitioner will wait for the opponent to strike first and then retaliate using relaxed arms (until impact) and waist rotation for power. There are five external forms (eyes, mind, hands, waist, and stance) and five internal forms (spirit, purpose, courage, power [chi], and power [ging] ). The only fist used is a phoenix eye strike.

Wushu

Wushu means "martial skill." In the West, it is the term used to identify the modern Chinese martial art that emphasizes flashy techniques and acrobatics. In China, it is the official term used to refer to what Westerners call kung-fu or chuan-fat. Training includes numerous empty hand techniques and practically every imaginable weapon. Patterns are performed solo or with a partner.
