Kung Fu

Kung Fu or Normal Kung Fu is a fighting style originating from Shaolin  Today we have over thousands of styles in Chinese Kung Fu.

Style
Mainly we can say that Kung Fu is subdivided in hard/outer and soft/inner styles.

Hard styles (Outer Styles): all Kung Fu styles in which you have hard blocking, breaking, punching and kicking are mainly hard styles, there is not much of throwing or grappling in it, for example: Nan Quan, Sanda, San-Shou

Soft styles (Inner styles): these styles use throwing kind of grappling and evading. Some of these soft styles even do not lecture fighting itself, they lecture us how to get stronger and healthier in our mental ways and how living without violence, for example: Tai Chi, Qui Kung.

Weapons
In Kung Fu nearly every weapon is used, like in Shaolin. The most popular weapons are the Broad Sword, the Tai Chi Sword, the Bamboo Staff or the Iron Lance.
