What is Dragon-Tiger Power in Chinese Internal Martial Arts? Dragon-Tiger Power (龙虎劲) represents the pinnacle of neijiaquan (internal martial arts) power generation, combining vertical dragon energy and horizontal tiger force. This unique synergy creates what modern biomechanics researchers call “integrated kinetic chain activation” – a concept verified in 2022 studies from Beijing Sport University on […]
