QiXing TangLang Shú Curriculum

插捶
CHA CHÚI

After eight weeks of foundational Zhan Zhuang training, students enter the first formal set of Seven-Star Praying Mantis — Chu Chui (插捶). Chu Chui is open and expansive in its structure, with clean and fluid lines of movement that carry many of the common qualities found in typical northern Chinese fist methods. Through the practice of Chu Chui, students develop an initial physical foundation (gong ti) — a trained body capable of full limb extension and unobstructed force delivery..

在8周的站樁勢基本功抵訓練後進入七星螳螂拳的第一套拳法 —— 插捶。插捶架勢開展，動作線條乾淨而流暢，具備許多典型北派拳法的共性。學者可透過插捶的練習達到肢體延展、勁力順達的初步體態（功體）。

翻車
FAN CHE

Fan Che — the Water Wheel. The name is drawn from the mechanics of a water wheel: the way it keeps force flowing continuously, turning endlessly without cease. The set focuses on developing shoulder and back mobility alongside lower-body muscular endurance. Together with Cha Chui, Fan Che forms one of the two essential foundational sets for building the basic physical conditioning required at the start of one's training..

翻車，即水車。取其能使勁力流轉，生生不息之意。著重開發肩背活動度與下肢肌耐力，與插捶同為入門之初建立基礎體能的重要套路。

十八索
ShíBa Sǔo

After Chu Chui and Fan Che have built the foundational structure and physical conditioning, students enter the first core set of Seven-Star Praying Mantis — Eighteen Locks (十八索).

One strike, one step. Move through it like an old man. Seek not speed, but steadiness. When the steps are unstable, the strikes fall into disorder. The body follows the step as it shifts; upper and lower are connected as one. From this, the force of the whole body finds its integration.

經過插捶與翻車建立基礎功架與體能之後，進入七星螳螂的第一套核心拳法。十八索，一拳一步走，打拳如老叟。不求快速，但求穩妥。步不穩則拳亂，身隨步換，上下相連，全身勁力由此可以整合。

拙剛
Zhúo Gang

Alongside Eighteen Locks as a core set of the system, Zhuo Gang (拙剛) formally embodies the hallmark Seven-Star Praying Mantis style of hard and soft, crisp and swift. Its hand techniques are dense and varied, its footwork transitions nimble, and its composition concise yet rigorous. It is a remarkably rare and refined set.

與十八索同為系統核心的一個小型套路，拙剛正式體現出七星螳螂拳剛柔脆快的迅捷風格。其手法綿密多變，步法轉換靈活，編排簡要嚴謹，是極為難得的一套拳法。
