More than that. The Chinese link form work (their drills) to wrestling. Their equipment drills are quite similar to the Okinawan goju equivalent.

Interesting link between form and function.

To look at more here is a Chinese site, that loads very slowly, but shows a ton of Chinese wrestling technique studes. I normally open one up, do anything esle till it loads, find the end button (small square on the bottom left of the screen) and after I hit it 3 rectangles appear on the screen right. Hit the top one and it starts playing.

of course I can't figure out whether this is chin na or shaui jiao, but they're very good clips.

Is it possible to find a Shuai Jiao school in the US?? I've been wanting to learn some throughout the past year. I would say Judo could supplement but Shuai Jiao would flow better because I already have experience with Kung Fu.

Mxyzpltlk,

Shaui Jiao does exist in the states. About 20 years ago there were many articles discussing it in "Inside Kung Fu" magazine. Off hand I recall there were schools in Calif., Ohio. I've never run into it myself, but seeing those video's I can see a lot of logic in their art.

I recall reading in the Chinese arts there was a lot of rivarly between the 'Kung Fu' systems and "Chaui Jiao".

Unfortunatly I maxed out on learning new systems decades ago...

Believe this is a place that teaches Shuai Jiao in NY.

Honestly, I should think about charging people for finding schools for them
