十路彈腿自序
AUTHOR’S PREFACE

維初練國術同志。欲學少林拳者。必須先踢彈腿。按彈腿的奧妙。旣為國術中之基礎。無論何種拳術。大槪均由彈腿中變化者較多。如將彈腿踢不正確。拳術姿勢决不得優良。况其器械更難練之。所以彈腿之動作。應加注重。蓋彈腿之意義。稍有不同。是因派別之關係。有踢十二路的。或者十路與十路不同的。况彈腿的彈字亦不一致。有說龍潭者。亦有說姓譚者。其中尚難辯論。所以學者。更加疑意。莫知所宗。是為國術之大障礙也。余自幼年時。練的敎門彈腿。曾聞前人云。南京至北京彈腿出於敎門中。大槪國術名家均有所聞。關於彈腿之派別。分上中下三種的解釋。有高腿門。有彈腿不過膝為低腿門。按此十路彈腿踢出時。以平為度為中腿門。其法正踢重要之部位。並有彈效力。譬如射擊之彈力相合。正適合於戰鬥作用。所以用此彈字。俗云手如兩扇門。全憑腿打人。手卽是刀。脚便是槍。或甲乙二人爭勝負以彈腿勝者較多。所以練彈腿者。皆是少年與中年者為優。性剛志强。手足敏捷。惟練太極拳者。年齡較大。或婦女練之甚為相宜。能使身體柔活。卻病延年。希諸同胞。奮起練之。自民國十九年時。余在京練此彈腿。由中央國術館張館長。見而善之。將此彈腿列為館中必修課程。一致練習。余猶恐學者。難能知其底蘊。特將十路彈腿編定講義。作為參考。近四十年來。競競於斯。無時或輟。精心研究。編輯成書。爰名曰。彈腿講義。使其鍛鍊體質之强健。凡軍學兩界。團體敎授。或個人練習。均稱適用。其有志於國術者。當以此書為基礎焉。惟斯篇倉卒而成。難免不無錯誤。尚希海內高明。加以敎正。余不勝翹盻之至矣。
民國二十四年六月山左聊城馬永勝序於姑蘇寓次
Martial arts practitioners who want to learn Shaolin Boxing have to start with Tantui. Indeed the ingenious techniques within Tantui are the foundation for Chinese martial arts in general. No matter which boxing art you happen to be practicing, it has likely been influenced by Tantui in many ways. If the kicks of Tantui are not done correctly, then boxing arts postures will be dramatically lacking in quality, and training with weapons would be even more difficult than it already is. Therefore the movements of Tantui should be given extra attention.
　　The meaning of “Tantui” is not always the same, varying from style to style. The transposing of different characters that are all pronounced “tan” results in variations not only between the twelve-line version and ten-line version, but even between teachers of the same version. The use of 彈 [which makes the meaning of Tantui into “Snapping Kicks”] is not universal. Some use 潭 [“Dragon Pool Temple Kicks”], and still others use 譚 [“Master Tan’s Kicks”]. It is difficult to determine which of these variations is correct, leading students to become doubtful about the validity of any of them. The fact that we do not really know the genuine history of what is being taught is an enormous hindrance in our martial arts.
　　Ever since my youth, I have practiced the Muslim art of Tantui. I once heard my teacher say: “Wherever in the nation you are, Tantui came from the Muslims.” This idea has become common knowledge among most martial arts masters. As for the various styles of Tantui, they can be divided into three categories: high, middle, low. There are styles of Tantui that kick rather high. There are also styles of Tantui that kick low, aiming no higher than the knee. Ten-Line Tantui [the version in this book] does its kicks at a level height, and is therefore in the middle category. This art places its main emphasis on precision kicking, kicks which also have a snapping quality. It is like the snap of loosing an arrow, and therefore this version of Tantui uses 彈 [“snapping”], which is also more directly consistent with its function as a fighting art [than either “Dragon Pool Temple Kicks” or “Master Tan’s Kicks”].
　　It is commonly said: “With the hands moving like two swinging doors, these techniques depend entirely on kicking to attack opponents.” “The hand is a saber. The leg is a spear.” “When martial artists fight, the Tantui guy usually wins.” The best time to practice Tantui is from youth to middle age, for it has a quality of hardness, of vigorous determination, and is performed with nimble hands and feet. The elderly are better off practicing Taiji Boxing, which is also very suitable for women, for it makes the body more supple and lively, preventing illness and prolonging life, and I hope all of my compatriots will be inspired to practice it.
　　I have been teaching this version of Tantui since 1930. The director [Zhang Zhijiang] of the Central Martial Arts Institute saw it and so admired it that he made it a required part of the curriculum and a standard exercise. However, I worry that students are still unable to fully grasp the fundamentals of this art, and so I have specially made this book for them to consult. For the last forty years, I have given this art careful attention, never taking a break from it, giving it meticulous study, and I have now put what I have learned into this book, which I have called Tantui Explained, in order for students to train in this method of strengthening the body. It is suitable for people in both military and academic circles, and for both group instruction as well as solo practice. For those who have an ambition to learn Chinese martial arts, this book provides a good foundation. However, it was produced hurriedly and so there are bound to be some errors in the text. I hope that more qualified people throughout the nation will give corrections, which I eagerly await.

彈腿之要領
TANTUI REQUIREMENTS

凡練彈腿者。須知人之體格部位及運動合法為要。所注重者。卽頭、眼、身、手、步、能盡悉五項要領者。自然進步迅速。練者倘授過名師眞傳。或何家宗派一練且知。身法式樣。出手卽曉。按此五法的意義。略解於後。望學者注意。
To practice Tantui, it is necessary to understand the methods of movement for the different sections of the body. The key parts are: head, eyes, torso, hands, and stance. If you are able to fully understand the requirements for these five parts, you will naturally make rapid progress. If you have received the genuine essence of the art from a noteworthy teacher, then whatever version of the art it might be, it will have the same principles for the torso, the same use of the hands, etc. The requirements for these five parts are briefly described below. I hope you will give these points attention.

一（頭法）
1. Head:
凡運動時。舉動端正。不可任意歪斜。或低抬扭轉。腦力靈活。面色鎭靜。均出自然形式。適合運動之法。
During the exercise, your head should be upright and must not be wobbling around, whether you are lowering, lifting, or turning. Your mind should be nimble, but your face should show calm. Always express natural postures and suitable movements.

二（眼法）
2. Eyes:
運用時。精神充足。左右兼顧。如着目的。一瞬卽至。手眼相隨。决如閃電。切不可閉目散神為要。
Your spirit should be full as you observe everything around you. Once you spot a target, you should instantly be striking it. Hands and eyes coordinate with each other, taking action with lightning decisiveness. You must never close your eyes and scatter your spirit [which does not mean that you can never blink, just that you must not take your eyes off the situation and consequently diminish your level of focus]. This is very important.

三（身法）
3. Torso:
如運動時。挺胸凹肚。脊樑中正。腰身柔軟。姿勢正確。兩肩鬆動。氣往下沉。呼吸自然。不可灣腰閉氣練者切知。
Stick out your chest and suck in your gut. Your spine should be upright. Your waist should be supple. Maintain proper poise. Your shoulders should be loose. Energy should sink down. Breathing should be natural. Stay aware that you must not bend over at the waist, which would inhibit the breath.

四（手法）
4. Hands:
運用之時。掌拳刁手。伸屈分明。肘腕圓活。封閉靈巧。
A palm, fist, or hooking hand involves different kinds of bending and extending. The elbow and wrist should be flexible in order to seal off nimbly.
伸掌時。四指併攏母指扣緊稍斜。
When opening the hand into a palm, the fingers are together, the thumb tight against the palm and bending at a slight angle.
握拳時。前節捲緊母指灣扣以平為度。
When closing the hand into a fist, the fingers curl in tightly and the thumb bends to cover them straight across.

五（步法）
5. Stances:
站立穩固。箭跳輕靈。進退迅速。變化敏捷。
Stand at attention stably. Do the jumping “arrow kick” nimbly. Advance and retreat quickly. Transform from one posture to another with great agility.
弓步式。前腿攻平足尖與膝相齊。後腿伸直兩足尖稍斜。足跟與前足尖成一直線。
Bow stance: Your front leg is bent so that the thigh is flat, the knee in line with the toes, and your rear leg is straight, the toes angled slightly inward, the heel making a line with your front toes.
丁步式。後足着實。前足尖點地。
T-shaped stance: Your rear foot is flat on the ground, but your front foot touches down with the toes.
騎馬式。兩足尖稍向裏斜。兩膝口緊。兩腿稍平。
Horse-riding stance: Both feet are slightly angled inward, the knees pinching toward each other, and the thighs are flat. [This stance is never used in this book, but appears in other versions of Tantui.]
一切步法均不可錯誤。
Every stance must be free of errors.

說明
Note:
以上十路彈腿。練習時。學員應呼一二三口令。係劃一整齊全排動作起見。如已練習純熟。則不須學員自呼口令。茲因足以消耗團結氣力。如運動完畢時。由敎員指揮遊動二三分鐘再為停止。
When practicing Ten-Line Tantui, the instructor calls out the count of “1,… 2,… 3,…” to keep the movements uniform and orderly. Once it has been practiced to the point of familiarity, it will no longer be necessary to be guided by a voiced cadence. The practice expends energy, and so at the finish of the exercise, the instructor will command that you walk around for a few minutes and then rest.

十路彈腿圖解
EXPLANATION FOR THE TEN-LINE TANTUI MAP

余編此書。除依式攝影逐條說明外。並仿照科學方法。繪有詳細總圖一幅。該圖編定五十四式。合計十路。每路均按左右動作變換而成。其餘接續重複。未便列入。茲因運動場地範圍長短不同。臨時酌量定之。如練者。十路彈腿難能一氣演畢。分為兩次練習亦可。倘體弱者。不可勉强。或先練四路。稍為休息二三分鐘。再練六路亦可。分合均由自便。在未開始之前。站立上首。以預備式為起點。按照總圖碼號挨次練習。如運動完畢。仍歸於起首處為還原。該圖附列於後。
In addition to the photos and explanations for each posture, I wanted to make this book look a little more scientific by producing a schematic depicting the pattern of the fifty-four postures within the ten lines. Each line alternates and repeats the movements on both the left and right sides, but this is not convenient to include in the diagram because the length required in the practice space is not the same as what is represented in the map, and so I have compromised by slightly cheating the content of each line [i.e. leaving out repetitions].
　　For some practitioners, it is difficult to perform Ten-Line Tantui all the way through. It is acceptable to practice just a couple of lines at a time, for if your body is weak, you must not overdo it. You may for instance try starting with the fourth line, rest for a couple of minutes, then practice the sixth line, dividing and combining the lines as you please. Before beginning the exercise, stand at the starting place and get into the READINESS POSTURE, then perform the lines in order according to the map. Upon finishing, you will have returned to the initial starting place. The map is shown below:

十路彈腿解說
MOVEMENT EXPLANATIONS FOR TEN-LINE TANTUI

第一路（第一動預備式）
Line 1, Movement 1: READINESS POSTURE

（解說）
Explanation:
預備式。在未開始以前。欲動未動之時。身站穩定。兩足併攏。兩腿立直。兩肩稍向後收。兩臂向上灣曲。兩肘均向後收。雙手握拳㩹於腰平。兩手心朝上。挺胸凹肚。兩肩下鬆。氣往下沉。為抱肘姿勢。下連第二動開始動作。
The READINESS POSTURE is what you are in before beginning. When you are about to move but not yet moving, your body stands stably, feet next to each other, legs straight, shoulders slightly pulled back, arms bent upward, elbows withdrawn to the rear, hands grasped into fists and placed at the waist, the centers of the fists facing upward. Stick out your chest and pull in your belly. Your shoulders loosen downward, energy sinking down, though your elbows are wrapped back. You will then continue into Movement 2 to truly begin the movements. See photo 1:

（用法）
Function:
此式運用。為初練者。振作精神。全身穩定。平心靜氣。目向左視。以觀範圍長短。酌量踢至幾步為止之意。
The use of this posture is to begin the practice by rousing your spirit, steadying your body, and calming your mind and energy. Your gaze is to the left, observing the size of the practice space and estimating how many kicks and steps will fit in it before having to stop.

第一路（第二動上步平伸）
Line 1, Movement 2: STEP FORWARD, LEVEL EXTENDING

（解說）
Explanation:
接前式。開始兩拳仍抱肘。左足先往前進一步。右足隨向前與左足併攏。身仍立正。兩腿挺直。兩臂用力向前平伸。虎口相對。離開少許。兩手心均向下。兩臂與兩肩相平。氣仍往下沉。目視兩拳。下連第三動。
Continuing from the previous posture, begin with your fists still in the wrapped-elbows position as first your left foot advances a step. Then your right foot goes forward to stand next to it, your body still standing upright, legs straight, as your arms forcefully extend forward and level. The tiger’s mouths are facing each other, somewhat separated, the centers of your fists facing downward, arms at shoulder level, energy still sinking down. Your gaze is toward your fists. See photo 2:

（用法）
Function:
此式運用。為初學之姿勢。並無對敵行動。向前平打。為發展兩拳與兩臂之力。
The use of this posture has to do with the beginning of the training, not really for taking action against an opponent. Striking forward and level develops power in the fists and arms.

第一路（第三動順步捶）
Line 1, Movement 3: STRAIGHT STANCE, PUNCH

（解說）
Explanation:
接前式。兩拳從前面稍向右偏移隨往下落再向前隨向內翻轉。兩拳抱於胸前。手心向內。兩臂灣曲。左足同時往左前邁一大步。成為左弓步式。隨用兩拳由胸前往前後一齊打開。兩臂伸直。成一平線。兩手心朝下。目視左拳。下連第四動。
Continuing from the previous posture, your fists shift slightly to the right, then downward, forward, and arcing inward so that your fists are embracing in front of your chest, the centers of the fists facing inward, arms bent, your left foot at the same time taking a large step forward to the left, making a stance of left leg a bow, right leg an arrow. Then your fists strike out in unison from in front of your chest to the front and rear, arms straight, making a horizontal line, the centers of the fists facing downward. Your gaze is toward your left fist. See photo 3:

（用法）
Function:
此式運用。亦無對敵之意。係初練時。以弓箭步為基本之動作。前後平打亦可應用。及發展兩臂與兩腿之力。
The use of this posture also does necessarily need to be for dealing with an opponent. In the beginning of the training, the bow & arrow stance is a fundamental exercise, and performing level strikes forward and back can be used for developing power in the arms and legs.

Your right arm at the same time bends, the fist gathers in from the rear until below your right ribs, the center of the fist facing upward, and then goes forward with a level strike, rotating so that the center of the fist is facing downward.
