View Full Version : Chinese Boxing Sakimaru 06-13-2002, 01:08 PM Anyone know about chinese boxing? My friend has studied it and is now qualified to teach. He says it is the most effective self defense martial art. If YOU know about it, can you tell me about the training, the history, techniques used, etc.? theneuhauser 06-14-2002, 04:09 PM chinese boxing is a general term used to describe the chinese martial art style. unless you are referring specifically to san shou or san da which is chinese kickboxing (more of a sport). and respect to your friend, but i never listen to anyone that tells me that their martial art is the "most effective" Sakimaru 06-14-2002, 04:33 PM Thank you for your response. Can you tell me more about this 'san shou'? theneuhauser 06-14-2002, 05:33 PM its alot like western kickboxing, but it also allows for throws, if you throw the opponent to the ground, it scores you a point. i think thats great because it reduces the number of "clinches" that get so annoying to watch in western boxing. arnisador 06-14-2002, 05:48 PM A few links here (http://www.martialtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=678) in what is otherwise a san soo thread.

That's San Shu.:asian: 7starmantis 08-14-2002, 03:37 PM Originally posted by theneuhauser chinese boxing is a general term used to describe the chinese martial art style. unless you are referring specifically to san shou or san da which is chinese kickboxing (more of a sport). and respect to your friend, but i never listen to anyone that tells me that their martial art is the "most effective" Very true...what else to say...ditto. 7sm Shinryu 08-15-2002, 05:24 AM Usual Term describing Chinese Boxing = Kung-Fu or Chinese Martial Arts. For example. In a B. Lee movied, said he knows Chinese Boxing, meaning he knew Chinese Martial Arts. :rolleyes: |
