Product Description | 产品描述

The "Southern Family Rooster Fist" is a traditional martial arts style originating from the Southern Shaolin Temple, later passed down among the people. This unique style mimics the movements and behaviors of a rooster, such as pecking insects, eating grains, kicking, shaking feathers, stretching, standing on one leg, nesting, perching, and crowing, embodying the distinct characteristics of Southern Fist. These animal-inspired techniques give the style its name, "Southern Family Rooster Fist."

This VCD is divided into three main sections:

1. Training Methods: Focuses on exercises such as scraping river sand, sandbags, stone balls, and wooden boards to develop the destructive power of the "chicken claw" hand technique.
2. Routine Practice: Composed of 27 movements, the routine heavily utilizes fingers, palms, head, and claws, with movements modeled after the rooster. The techniques are fierce, with arms snapping and vibrating to generate explosive power, complemented by large, quick, and agile footwork. The body movement is dynamic, with flexible changes of elevation and rhythm.
3. Combat Applications: Highlights clever techniques such as using softness to overcome hardness, speed to counter slowness, and strategic dodging. The focus is on evasion and exploiting weaknesses.

The martial arts manual poetically describes its essence:
“Golden Rooster leaves the nest, its wings snap and flutter; stepping and kicking to the heights, a cry pierces the heavens.”
“金鸡出巢穴，两臂弹抖翎；踏步蹬高处，一声叫天.”
