What do you learn in WuShu (Martial Arts) ?

I wanna learn how to do a backflip, butterfly twist, etc.. Do you learn that in WuShu? If so, what else do you learn in WuShu.


If not, what do I take to learn those kind of tricks.


Thanks. Top rating to best answer.|||WuShu is a martial art, not backflips and tricks, but centrally focused on philosophy and technique. It will take you at least 5 years of training to get to the level where you can start learning those amazing tricks you see on movies with Jackie Chan, Jet Li.





But if you didn%26#039;t know, Jackie Chan, Jet Li and Bruce Lee even learned their tricks from Tae Kwon Do. In it, there is a style called demonstrative.


Its where you do cool tricks to persuade people to join and stuff, especially in huge events. Yes, thats where you learn it.





But it will still take you 2~3 years, because usually, black belts in Taekwondo get to do demonstrative Taekwondo.


But its worth it.








G%26#039;luck, hope you learn all these tricks you want to learn.~


|||Yes, in Contemporary Wushu, you%26#039;ll learn those in the first 2 weeks, those are very basic techniques and Wushu is just one word, no capitol Shu, You also learn many acrobatic stunts, kind of like Tricking if you know what that is. You%26#039;ll also improve flexibility and jump height, as well as your kicking height. The main attacks in Wushu can be found here:

Those are your basic Wushu techniques that you%26#039;ll be working on for your first 8-10 months, after that, you%26#039;ll move on to creating more complex routines.|||I think you would be better suited to take an acrobatics or gymnastics class. You may learn those things in some martial arts schools, but if that is what you want to learn, you won%26#039;t stay in it long enough to learn them. It would be like going to cullinary school to learn how to throw knives.|||Modern wushu is composed of two disciplines: taolu and sanda. Taolu forms are similar to gymnastics and involve martial art patterns and maneuvers for which competitors are judged and given points according to specific rules. The forms comprise basic movements (stances, kicks, punches, balances, jumps, sweeps and throws) based on aggregate categories traditional Chinese martial art style and can be changed for competitions to highlight one%26#039;s strengths. Competitive forms have time limits that can range from 1 minute, 20 seconds for the some external styles to over five minutes for internal styles. Modern wushu competitors are increasingly training in aerial techniques such as 540 and 720 degree jumps and kicks to add more difficulty and style to their forms.





Sanda (sometimes called sanshou or Lei Tai) is a modern fighting method and sport influenced by traditional Chinese boxing, Chinese wrestling methods called Shuai Chiao and other Chinese grappling techniques such as Qin Na. It has all the combat aspects of wushu. Sanda appears much like kickboxing or Muay Thai, but includes many more grappling techniques. Sanda fighting competitions are often held alongside taolu or form competitions.





If you aren%26#039;t actually wanting to learn a martial art form, then gymnastics/acrobatics may be the best route for you to go.
