Abstract
Background/Purpose: To better develop multi-racial education of practicing and learning martial arts, this essay was written by using case analysis and information analysis. Methods: According to the recently HYX 16th World Wushu Championships, 76.9% athletes who learned about Chinese culture got the points higher than average. In addition, in the 9th World Kungfu Championships, 87% athletes had learned about Chinese culture won a prize in the contest. Meanwhile, we prepared 20 overseas students who started learning martial arts to identify whether learning Chinese culture was beneficial to martial arts learning. Every member in this program never studied Chinese culture and knew little about martial arts. Due to the gender difference in Chinese martial arts competition penalties, we recruited ten male and ten female volunteers, each gender of five individuals per group. Five were in the experimental group and five were in the control group. Each member of the test group did not receive Chinese culture-related content after each training session. The control group learned about Chinese culture after each training session. Each of the volunteers was between 18 and 22 years old and had a similar body type. We employed an experimental martial arts competition every Monday with concurrent scoring. Additionally, the rate of the locomotor performance was also considered as part of the rating that is rated according to Body Fat Rate, Heart Rate during exercise, 100 Meter Dash, and Flexibility. Each test was taken place on the Sunday following three training sessions a week. The intervention lasted for 5 weeks. Results: ANCOVA with repeated measures indicated that the control group had overall higher scores of the games than the experimental group (F = 7.13, p = 0.005, η2 = 0.117; F = 7.21, p = 0.006, η2 = 0.113). Beyond that, regarding the results of martial arts performance, the ANCOVA with repeated rate of each test had overall lower levels compared to the control group (F = 7.67, p = 0.005, η2 = 0.129). Conclusion: This experiment showed that learning relevant Chinese culture can effectively improve the performance of traditional martial arts without observing differences by gender or race. Therefore, learning Chinese culture in the world is an excellent means to promote Chinese martial arts to the world.
