Since 1985 leading masters of martial arts such as Jeffrey Bolt, Nick Greysnin, Sam Mathich, Pat Raye and others have been trying to make a union of Chinese martial arts and to bring the best masters from China, Thailand, Hong Kong together. Although after ten years of efforts the USA Wushu-Kungfu Federation (USAWKF) was established, the final goal of all leading masters and wushu schools unit has not been reached yet.

Our sportsmen are succeeding at World and Europe Sanda (Sanshou) Championships. At the conference of 2001 it was decided to develop traditional wushu as an independent branch (apart from sport style of wushu and sanda).

USAWKF, headed by Anthony Goh, presented the outstanding wushu-sanda masters. After the hardest sparring the Chinese favorites had to give in to Russian sanda masters.

Raymond Tower in the magazine "Tai Chi International" does a great job systemizing information about traditional wushu and studying internal styles.

There were articles by a famous Chinese wushu master Ji Juan Cheng, who is the Honorary President and the main adviser of The Wushu Federation. A great number of western masters agree over the idea that only turning to the origins, heritage of the Oriental culture- the traditional martial art, seeing Wushu as whole system in particular can revive it.

The Japanese people are great Karate, Aikido and other widely-spread martial artists. When they learned that there was a genuine technique of the traditional Wushu in China, they became frequent visitors at professor Ma Menta's house. Many of them were interested in using wooden staff techniques, others wanted to picture complexes, but... Ma Menta had always politely declined it. Nowadays information about the famous Tongbei school of the Ma family can be easily found in the Internet.
