Short Hand Kung Fu

Li-Chia

It's called Short-Hand Kung Fu because most of the movements are based on a boxing distance, close enough for hand movements but too close for anything but snap kicks. Other strengths are rapid stance changes and intricate hand movements. The Li-Chia master will enter combat steadily and deliberately, advancing to combat range. Then it becomes a simple matter of out fighting the opponent with as many blows as possible.

Schools are located throughout Alcirya.

Stance

Forward stance with feet at right angles, less than shoulderwidth apart. One fist forward at chin level, the other drawn back to the chest, both clenched and pointing upward, with the palm toward the body.
