Put the Kung Fu Spirit into Your Self Defence Moves or Fighting Techniques

Click here to - Tell Us Your Best Kung Fu, Wu Shu or Martial Arts Moves or Techniques (You can read the stories posted by others at the bottom of this page.)

The first thing you must know is that the kung fu (KF) fighting spirit is vastly different in style and in presentation to other types of martial arts. For example, KF consists of six key features that is the foundation for ALL techniques and moves. So you’ll be required to apply these in your KF forms or self defence training.

Your self defence moves or fighting techniques will not be strong unless you have powerful stances. To help you with that, see my New Book: Stance Training to Boost Your Martial Arts

The six key features are sub divided into the Three External Co-ordination and the Three Internal Co-ordination.

The Three External Co-ordination are:

- Hands and feet
- Elbows with knees
- Shoulders with hips

The Three Internal Co-ordination are

- Heart and mind
- Mind and breath
- Breath and power

As one of the strongest themes of Taoism is that of “simplicity” – you may have heard the saying “The simplest things in life are often the best” -- in Chinese martial arts this means “The simplest techniques are often the best.”

Why? Because the simplest techniques have an inherent power within them and also because we can all effectively apply them time and time again.

The aim at Golden Lion is to deliver techniques that reflect the principles of Tao.
