  1. wushu?
  2. Most Chinese martial arts, such as Taijiquan for one well-known example, still train extensively with jian, and expertise in its technique is said by many of them to be the highest physical expression of their martial skills. However, most jian today are flexible tai-chi or wushu jian used mainly for ceremonial purposes and not for actual combat. Dao refers to any curved, one-sided sword/blade, but this wushu form is a Changquan method of using a medium-sized willow-leaf-shaped dao.
  3. WUSHU Reasons are : 1. I've been doing wushu for 5 years and the best sword fighting. 2. Jet Li,and Bruce Lee all have done Wushu and they kik butt 3. Wushu because it's very flexible, and its in China:D
