A HAND TECHNIQUE TO COUNTER ANY HAND ATTACKS, AND A LEG TECHNIQUE TO COUNTER ANY LOW KICKS

Shaolin Tantui

The combatants not only engage their hands but also their legs



There is a kungfu saying as follows: "Southern Fists, Northern Kicks". It means that that southern styles of kungfu are well known for their hand techniques, whereas northern styles are famous for their kicks.

Tantui is the essence of northern styles, but it does not neglect hand techniques. In Combat Sequence 9 there is a hand technique that can be used to counter any hand attacks, and also a leg technique that can be used to counter any low kicks! Is this incredible?
