Abstract
AbstractThe failure of Chinese Wushu to be admitted to the Olympic Games can be attributed to two factors. One is the unwise strategy chosen to apply for admittance to the Games; the other is an incorrect understanding of how to propagate Chinese traditional culture associated with Wushu. In circumstances in which Wushu’s domestic superiority has gradually weakened, instead, excessive emphasis on the physical properties of martial arts together with neglect of its national culture characteristics will definitely result in the loss of its original attraction. Therefore, this article proposes that the sustainable approach to carrying forward Wushu’s national essence is to draw upon its primitive morphology, to obey the intrinsic laws of martial arts development, and thereby to spread it both domestically and internationally in the form of a folk practice.
