Originating in the late Ming Dynasty around 400 years ago, mantis boxing draws inspiration from the hunting techniques of a praying mantis. Practitioners use quick strikes, nimble footwork and spiral hand moves to catch their opponents. Every posture balances offense and defense. Rooted in nature, this martial art form remains both a self-defense skill and a symbol of Chinese wisdom.
