Panthera Tigris
All or nothing, from zero to one hundred percent in a millisecond.
In QUAN DAO Kung Fu, the tiger embodies the explosive, forward-charging power that cannot be stopped. The mental attitude corresponds to a an underlying wildness and cold-bloodedness. Every stalk is filled with “all or nothing“ and the power of NOW from stillness to explosion.
