The Sorrow of Traditional Wushu

Before, we were the same kind of people, and I always thought that China's kung fu had declined. After I went to college, I joined the Wushu Association and got to know many masters of the actual combat school, which completely restored the status of China Wushu in my mind.

In fact, the decline of Wushu in China does exist, because there are only two forms of Wushu that we usually see, performance and martial arts schools. I don't want to say more about the performance. I just want to talk about the martial arts school, which is the same as the martial arts school. I can tell you responsibly that they are all fooling the children. Only teach shelf, not connotation. Those are the most superficial things in martial arts, and they are really showy.

But the decline of China Wushu is not from this angle, because it is also a trend that people pay attention to its appreciation. Just like Taekwondo and Karate, it cannot be popularized without performance.

The real decline should start with the decrease of actual combat groups and the decline of traditional teaching methods. The real traditional martial arts is actually practical, but it is not ornamental at all, and those martial artists do not necessarily make a living by opening martial arts schools. The essence of China Wushu is passed down by word of mouth. I'm not saying that you take money. I open a martial arts school and teach as much as I pay. What you really want to learn can only be learned in two ways, one is a family heirloom and the other is a traditional apprentice.

So, please don't think that martial arts is really a flower shelf, but you have never seen a master.
