You must have heard of Bruce Lee and his Martial Art Skills. Martial Art is a form of fighting system practised for self-defense, sport, discipline, fitness and also for meditation. There are various schools and styles of martial arts but ultimately, they all have the same objective: self-defense. Martial arts are divided into two main categories: "hard martial arts" such as Karate and "soft martial arts" such as Judo. Another type of Martial Art also exists which is a combination of both soft and hard Martial Arts such as Wushu. Wushu or Kungfu, is a hard and soft and thus a complete martial art as well as a full-contact sport. “Wushu" is the Chinese term for "martial arts". Since Wushu practitioners bear a lot of hurdles in learning Wushu, their winning in the competitions give them a positive push for excelling in it.
