THE YI CHUAN KUNG FU PAGES

"When people of great wisdom hear the Truth, they diligently practice it;

When people of moderate wisdom hear the Truth, they practice it now and then;

When people of lesser wisdom hear the Truth, they laugh at it;

If there were no laughter, there would be no Truth."

- Lao Tse

Unlike other styles though, Yi Chuan has no fixed forms or fixed techniques, and is, to our knowledge, the only kung fu like this.

Currently, Yi Chuan is widely practiced in China where documented research has credited it with improving physical health and enhancing mental faculties.
