HISTORICAL CONTEXT
Shaolin Arm Through Boxing, known as Tongbeiquan, is one of the most widely influential and practiced styles in Chinese martial arts history. Its name, 'Arm Through,' refers to the unique method of power generation where force seems to pass through the back and into the extended limbs, like a single connected unit. This style has various regional interpretations across China, but the Shaolin version remains the most ferocious and structurally rigorous. Master Shi Deyang, a 31st-generation heir of the Shaolin Temple, demonstrates this routine to showcase its practical combat value and its deep roots in the temple's martial tradition. It is a style that has shaped the development of many other boxing forms due to its efficiency and power.
TECHNICAL PHILOSOPHY
The technical philosophy of Shaolin Tongbeiquan is centered on 'Ferocity and Might.' The routine is designed to overwhelm an opponent with a continuous barrage of strikes that utilize the full reach of the arms. Unlike styles that rely on localized muscular strength, Tongbeiquan emphasizes the 'Back-to-Arm' kinetic connection, allowing for whip-like, high-velocity strikes. Master Shi Deyang teaches that the routine must be 'Well-Structured,' combining offensive pressure with a tight, impenetrable defense. The philosophy is one of 'Practicality,' where every movement is refined for its ability to build the physique and neutralize threats in real-world combat scenarios.
BIOMECHANICAL ANALYSIS
From a biomechanical perspective, Arm Through Boxing is an intensive study in 'Elastic Power' and spinal rotation. Master Shi demonstrates how the power is initiated in the legs, amplified by the waist, and then 'tunneled' through the back (Tong Bei) to the hands. This requires a high degree of flexibility in the shoulder girdle and the thoracic spine. The 'Body-Weapon Integration' (where the arms are the weapons) is achieved through the synchronization of the 'Six Harmonies.' This DVD analyzes how the long-range strikes of Tongbeiquan can be delivered with explosive Fa-Jin while maintaining a stable center of gravity, making it a highly efficient system for both health and combat.
PRACTICE AND APPLICATION
This DVD provides a comprehensive guide to the Shaolin Tongbeiquan technical routine and its actual combat applications. Master Shi Deyang breaks down the complex sequences into clear, actionable steps, focusing on the timing and intent of each strike. The instruction covers the defense-to-offense transitions that make this style so effective for self-defense. By practicing these traditional Shaolin movements, students can develop exceptional upper-body power, coordination, and martial spirit. Master Shi's authoritative teaching ensures that the internal principles of the style are preserved, providing a valuable resource for martial artists of all backgrounds who wish to experience the true power of Shaolin boxing.

Master Shi Deyang
"Biographical Profile: Shi Deyang
31st Generation Successor of the Shaolin Temple and Guardian of Traditional Chan-Wu
Shi Deyang, born in 1968 in Dengfeng, Henan, is a world-renowned 31st-generation successor of the Shaolin Temple. A primary disciple of the late Great Abbot Shi Suxi, he is widely regarded as one of the most authentic exponents of traditional Shaolin martial arts and Chan (Zen) culture in the modern era.
Martial Arts Background: Monastic Lineage and Zen-Martial Integration
Entering the Shaolin Temple at a young age, Shi Deyang spent decades under the strict tutelage of Master Shi Suxi. His training focused on the ""Old Three Forms"" of Shaolin, including Xiao Hong Quan, Da Hong Quan, and Tongbi Quan, as well as traditional weaponry and internal cultivation. His background is deeply rooted in ""Chan Wu Yi"" (Zen, Martial Arts, and Medicine), emphasizing that martial arts are a form of moving meditation intended to cultivate the spirit as much as the body.
Legacy and Contribution: Preserving the Songshan Heritage
As a global ambassador for Shaolin culture, Master Shi Deyang has traveled extensively to establish schools and cultural centers worldwide. He has dedicated his life to documenting and teaching the traditional routines that predate modern performance Wushu, ensuring the survival of the temple’s ancient combat logic. He has served as the head coach of the Shaolin Temple Warrior Monks and continues to mentor a new generation of practitioners in the authentic ""Songshan style.""
Artistic Style: Unadorned Power and Spiritual Focus
His style is characterized by the classic Shaolin principle of ""striking in a single line."" His movements are compact, explosive, and devoid of unnecessary ornamentation. In his practice, one can observe the ""Six Harmonies""—the coordination of intent, breath, and physical force. His execution of forms reflects a profound stillness within motion, embodying the austere and powerful aesthetic of traditional monastic kung fu."
