A free mini-guide about what we call “Dragon Motion”

In 6 Dragons Kung Fu, we call “Dragon Motion” a particular type of movement that, essentially, involves following more or less narrow circular trajectories in such a way as to obtain tactical combat advantages such as:

Keep the flow of our inertia stable
Fake the real timing, power and speed of our moves
…

Note – This article has been asked by one of our Core Course practitioners on Patreon (see how to attend our home study classes here Learn Kung Fu online: a beginner-to-expert course).

We created this guide to explain and share the basics of this method (born in our school) but it is important to stress the fact that its real development requires a deep kind of conditioning and that we have been therefore forced to describe it only in our Core Course (and in some of our video courses).
