Wudang Internal Kung Fu

Wudang Kungfu is an important style of Chinese martial arts and has a very long history. Wudang Kungfu comprises many training methods designed for keeping healthy and prolonging one's life while at the same time gaining many effective fighting skills. It is not just a school of martial arts, rather a complete system for both self defense and health preservation.

Wudang Kungfu cannot be separated from Daoist culture. Wudang Kungfu has its roots in the fertile soil of the thousands of years' ancient Chinese civilization. It contains ancient Chinese philosophical theories, combining the traditional concepts of Taiji, Yin and Yang, Wu Xing (Five Elements), and Ba Gua (Eight Trigrams) with boxing theory, boxing skills, training principles and attack strategies. Wudang Kungfu is a way of studying the laws of life and nature. One may say that Wudang Kungfu is the crystallisation of the Daoist exploration of life.

It is said that Zhang Sanfeng, the founder of Wudang Kungfu, was cultivating his spiritual energy in the mountains when he witnessed a fight between a crane and a snake. The crane was flying up and down to attack and the snake was shaking its body and raising its head in defense. The scene inspired Zhang Sanfeng and provided him with a general understanding of the Taiji theory. He then proceeded to create Wudang Internal Kungfu. He found in the battle between the two creatures the following two principles: one must overcome the strong in a gentle way and win by striking only when the enemy has made its move.

Having been developed and supplemented by many masters through the years, Wudang Kungfu now has several different schools and styles which include Taiji, Xingyi (Form and Will Boxing), Ba Gua Zhang (Eight Trigram Palm ), Light Body Kungfu, Hard Qigong and further styles of qigong. Wudang kungfu has come from deep in the mountains and become an important school of Chinese martial arts. There are many Wudang Kungfu schools today, but the lineage of Zhang Sanfeng remains the one that has inherited Wudang Kungfu in the most complete way. Master Chen Shixing is a 15th-generation Sanfeng Master.
