Description

Wudangquan is a class of Chinese martial arts, named after the Wudang Mountains. It is one of the two major groups of Chinese martial arts alongside Shaolin, representing the internal (neijia) tradition. Its core styles include tai chi, xingyiquan, and baguazhang, which emphasize using the focused mind to control the body rather than brute force.
