Chinese Kung Fu by yangguang03

In early time when man became skillful in hunting and warfare, they would change their moves for entertainment. They imitated various animal movements; hence there appeared monkey dance, bird dance and so on. There also appeared the dance with shield and battle, which was a martial dance and demonstrate the early relation between dance and fighting skill. And the soldiers at that time practiced a competitive wrestling-butting with horns, which had been taken as a training method.

During the Han Dynasty, unarmed combat contest became popular. Unarmed combat was a skill which was highly developed by the end of this period. This skill consists of many attack, defense, counter-attack and feints.

In the Han Dynasty, in the feast, many dance performance would be shown in the form of sword dance. During that time, kung fu was developed further. And the element of sport and dance is now becoming more apparent.

Kung fu is a general term that could refer to any of the various Chinese martial arts. Shaolin monks study, organize and systematized Chinese kung fu. Considering the origin of the Chinese kung fu, it is not strange for Shaolin Kung fu to include many animal styles such as Crane, Dragon, Monkey and Snake.

Actually, the West prefer using the term kung fu, which means skill and ability. But in China, Wushu is the favorable word to describe Chinese Martial Arts.

A western Jesuit Missionary named Pere Amoit firstly use the word kung fu. He got a chance to witness exercises and training regimen in China and then he called it “Cong Fou” in his personal journals. The term “Kuo-Shu”, popular in China until about 1930, has since been popularized by the Taiwanese Government to refer to Chinese Martial Arts.
