Modern wushu is composed of two disciplines: Taolu and Sanda. Taolu forms are similar to gymnastics and involve martial art patterns and maneuvers for which competitors are judged and given points according to specific rules. The forms comprise basic movements (positions, kicking, punching, balances, jumps, sweeps and throws) based on aggregate categories traditional Chinese style of martial arts and can be changed for competitions to highlight strengths of person. Competitive forms have time limits which can vary from 1 minute, 20 seconds for some external styles to over five minutes for internal styles. Modern wushu competitors are increasingly training in aerial techniques such as 540 and 720 degree jumps and kicks to add more difficulty and style to their forms. Sanda (Sanshou or sometimes called Lei Tai) is a modern fighting method and sport influenced by traditional Chinese boxing, methods Anti-Chinese called Shuai Chiao and other Chinese-taking techniques such as Qin Na. It has all aspects of the fight against wushu. Sanda appears much like kickboxing or Muay Thai, but includes much more technical face. Sanda fighting competitions are often held in margin or competitions Taolu form. If you are not really want to learn a martial art form, then gymnastics / acrobatics may be the best route to go.
