ZIRANMEN is a rare and unique traditional martial art that includes methods of flexibility, forms, weapons, nei gong, self-defense, and body conditioning. It calls for the use of the entire body in an integrated way to exercise and progressively strengthen the muscles, tendons, ligaments and bones.

	BASICS Form the foundation of Kungfu with methods of stretching, strengthening and coordination for the body. Practices like stretch kicks for flexibility, stance holding for strength and linked movements while stepping for overall body coordination form an important part of what is known as basics. The next level includes generating force exercises, sensitivity drills and basic martial theory.
	HAND FORMS A sequence of offensive, defensive & transitional movements that are linked together to basically serve as a systems library for combat application, strengthening, and overall body coordination. Forms are usually very specific as to the type of skill one is to derive such as for example basic hand moves, continuous attack strategy or special footwork. Forms can be as short as 13 movements to as long as 108 movements. 1 Ying Yong Quan – Basic Fist 2 Liu He Quan – Six Harmony Fist 3 Wu Yan Xing Quan – Five Swallow form Fist 4 Qing Long Quan – Green Dragon Fist 5 Hei Hu Quan – Black Tiger Fist 6 Zi Mu Lian Huan Quan – Mother Son Interlocking Fist 7 Xiao Luohan – Small Arhat 8 Jian Hua Tai Ji Quan – Simplified Taiji Fist 9 Zhang San Feng Tai Ji Quan
	WEAPONS Training with weapons takes what one develops in hand forms to another level.
