Also known as
Cannon Fist
Description
Pao Chui (Cannon Fist) is a northern Chinese Long Fist (Changquan) martial art
known for its explosive, powerful techniques. The name refers to the
characteristic 'cannon-like' force of its strikes. Pao Chui emphasizes
rapid-fire combinations, grounded stances, and sudden bursts of power from a
stable base. It is one of the three major Changquan families alongside Chaquan
and Huaquan. The style's core curriculum includes multiple numbered forms.
Pao Chui was one of the foundational influences on modern competition wushu
Changquan and remains practiced as a standalone art.
