When it comes to traditional Chinese martial arts also known as Kung Fu there are quite a few English words you can use to describe the variety of movements and techniques involved but the most common term is undoubtedly “Wushu”

Wushu comes from the Mandarin Chinese pronunciation of the two characters 武术 (wǔshù) The first character “武” (wǔ) means “war” or “martial” and the second character “术” (shù) means “art” or “skill” So together the word “wushu” translates to “martial arts” or “warrior arts”

While wushu has become an international sport with standard forms and competitions it encompasses a vast range of styles and combines both internal (neijia) and external (waijia) martial arts Some of the most well-known styles include Tai Chi Shaolin Kung Fu Wing Chun and Wudangquan Each of these styles focuses on different aspects of wushu including strength flexibility speed and balance
