Today the term Kung-Fu is used to represent Chinese martial arts. The term WuShu today is commonly used to represent the martial exhibition and full-contact sport. While exhibition Wushu is derived from Traditional martial arts it focuses more on exhibition and usually appears to be very acrobatic. So lets look at what the words really mean.

Kung- Discipline

Shu- Technique or skill

Combined it means to be a disciplined person with technique or skill in martial arts. It is a term which represents all the martial arts styles in China. Martial arts have been practiced in China for thousands of years and Kung Fu consist of thousands of different external and internal styles. Commonly written as Kung Fu, it may also be written as Gung Fu, or gōngfu in pinyin.
