Product Description | 产品描述

The "Southern Family Duck Fist" is a unique martial arts style originating from the Southern Shaolin Temple and later passed into the hands of the people. This style mimics the movements and behaviors of a duck, such as leaving the cage, stretching its neck, flapping its wings, floating on water, running, walking, playing in water, rolling, nesting, and pecking for food. These movements reflect the distinctive Southern Fist characteristics, giving the style its name, "Southern Family Duck Fist."

This VCD is divided into three main sections:

1. Training Methods: Exercises focus on practicing hand, eye, body, and foot coordination by simulating a duck’s movements along a riverbed, training the flexibility and coordination of the shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, and knees.
2. Routine Practice: Composed of 27 movements, the routine is inspired by duck-like gestures, showcasing light body movements and agile footwork. The movements are vivid, imaginative, and highly entertaining.
3. Combat Applications: Features unusual and creative techniques, with unexpected moves and quirky strikes. The techniques emphasize catching the opponent off guard and defeating them in a single move.

The martial arts manual poetically describes its essence:
“Southern Family Duck Fist, inspired by form and intention; stretching neck and probing head, hands turn into blades; crouching low and stepping lightly, targeting the lower body; agile bodywork, full of endless variations.”
“南派鸭拳，象形取意；伸颈探脑，化掌为刀；蹲身步矮，巧打下盘；身法灵便，变化多端.”
