Shuai Jiao techniques and principles are very simple, effective and most importantly, quick. Because of its speed and effectiveness, an opponent often does not have a chance to counter. Shuai Jiao is an art that does not rely on muscular strength alone, it always emphasizes avoiding direct impact with an opponent’s power and emphasizes getting close to an opponent quickly and using the opponent’s power against themselves.
