Chuojiao (Chinese: 戳腳; pinyin: Chuōjiǎo; lit. 'poking foot') is a Chinese martial art that comprises many jumps, kicks, and fast fist sequences. The fist and feet work in unison and strike continuously forward, like "falling meteorites", never giving the opponent a moment to recover. The qinggong portion of this style's training involves a practitioner jumping against a wall with heavy weights affixed to his/her calves. This style is practiced mainly in northern and northeast China, including central Hebei, Beijing, and Liaoning.[1]
