As we know the importance of balance in street fighting I have always been puzzled about why I can not find similar techniques in TCM as in wrestling, ju-jitsu and other ground techniques. I can think that during those times the use of weapons: knife, staff, sword, etc. and lately guns will end any fight without the need of bare hands. Any enlightment will be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Mig

TCMA's Full contact expression is San Da. Throwing, reaps, and trips are quite an important part of TCMA.
