1. Structure. A lot of arts have good structure by necesity, but no one I've seen gets into it as deeply as the CMA
Agreed.
2. Yielding. Although I could be seeing more of this than most because of my Taiji background.
There's an aspect of yielding in all the CMA I've experienced, and that yielding leads into counters, locks, throws, etc, that you expect from "real kung fu."
3. This is a maybe. Power generation? The boxing I'm doing generates power by pushing off the ground on the strike. The CMA I've learned sinks into the ground rather than pushes off of it. This is a maybe because there probably are CMA systems that push off the ground. I just haven't seen them personally.
Hmm. American boxing may have less of a focus on rooting because it doesn't have to deal with the risks of being thrown or having your legs taken out from under you. However, a wrestler (or a boxer with a wrestling background) would probably have more of a CMAlike rooting/power generation methodology.
