Drunken boxing
martial-arts styles that imitate the movements of a drunk
Drunken boxing also known as Drunken Fist, is a Chinese martial arts style that looks like the movements of a drunk person.[1] It is a very old style that is mainly linked to Buddhist and Daoist religious communities. The Buddhist style is related to the Shaolin temple and the Daoist style is based on the Daoist tale of the drunken Eight Immortals. Drunken boxing has very different body movements from other Chinese martial arts. Hitting, grappling, locking, evading, feinting and many different methods of fighting are included.
