Related Duan Quan, also known as short-style boxing, is a form of kung fu practiced primarily in the Hebei Province of China.
A highly-dynamic and combat-oriented martial art, Duan Quan focuses on short and compact routines, low stances, and quick movements. Students are taught to be highly mobile, in order to keep the opponent disoriented and unable to attack.[1]
