Snake boxing strikes with grace and power

"It has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. The initial reason for practicing snake boxing was simply for exercise but later, with other enthusiasts, I started exploring new techniques and refining the key points of each movement," says Fu Xinyue, 25.

"Under my father's direct guidance, we repeated and corrected our movements constantly, and gradually, our actions became more synchronized and filled with power. The beauty of the movements fills me with an indescribable sense of pride," she adds.

As her comprehension and skills grow, she sees snake boxing as the embodiment of resilience, flexibility, and the spirit of hard work and endurance.

"It has given me faith in the face of adversity, enabling me to react swiftly and flexibly to any situation to achieve the best outcome," she says.
