Traditional martial arts known as Drunken Boxing, Drunken Fist, and Zui Quan (泂择) in Chinese are designed to imitate the movements and actions of an inebriated individual. It is distinguished by its fluid and unpredictable motions, which consist of faltering, swaying, and wobbling. Practitioners frequently adopt the movements of an intoxicated individual and incorporate them into their combat style. It is believed that Drunken Boxing originated centuries ago in China, despite the fact that its origins are somewhat obscure. The rumor that it was invented by Zhang Sanfeng, a Taoist priest, is unsubstantiated by historical records. Techniques employed in Drunken Boxing generally comprise deceptive footwork, abrupt direction changes, and feints-all with the intention of perplexing and unexpected adversaries. By capitalizing on their adversary's momentum, practitioners frequently employ joint locks, throws, and strikes targeted at susceptible anatomical areas. Although it may appear lighthearted on account of its recreation of inebriated behavior, inebriated Boxing is a highly technical martial art that demands considerable dexterity, equilibrium, and coordination. In order to proficiently execute its techniques and modify them to combat circumstances, practitioners engage in rigorous training.
