 quán jī
Boxing Scroll

拳擊 is the term used in Chinese to refer to the original Olympic sport of combat and fighting.

If you like to strap on your boxing gloves and go a few rounds or are just a fan of boxing, this could make a nice wall scroll for you.

Note that Japanese use the same first character (which means fist) but a different Kanji for the second. Please see our Japanese boxing entry for that version.

 ken tou
Boxing Scroll

拳闘 is the term used in Japanese Kanji to refer to the original Olympic sport of combat and fighting.

This can also be translated as prizefighting.

The first Kanji means fist. The second means fight. So when literally translated, this means “fistfight” (though understood in Japanese as a more refined sport, versus street fighting).

Note: A completely different second character is used in the Chinese word for boxing but a Chinese person would still be able to guess the meaning of these Kanji.

 kikkubokushingu
Kick-Boxing Scroll

キックボクシング is the Japanese Katakana word for kickboxing.

This is a transliteration or borrowed word, meaning that it's meant to sound like “kick-boxing,” rather than being an organic Japanese Kanji word that means “kick-boxing.”


Note: Because this title is entirely Japanese Katakana, it should be written by a Japanese calligrapher.

 tī quán
Kick-Boxing Scroll

踢拳 is kickboxing in Chinese.

The first character means “kick,” and the second means “fist,” hence “boxing.”

Fighting Spirit

The Will to Fight

 dòu zhì
Fighting Spirit Scroll

斗志 literally means fighting spirit in Chinese.

As in the spirit that a warrior, soldier, athlete, or fighter must possess.

斗Note: There is more than one way to write the first character of this word. It is sometimes written like the version shown to the right (yes, it's completely different but has the same meaning & pronunciation). If you have a preference, please let us know in the special instructions about your order.

Fighting Spirit

 tou shi
Fighting Spirit Scroll

This literally means “fighting spirit” or “the will to fight.”

As in the spirit that a warrior, soldier, athlete, or fighter must possess.

Fighting Spirit

Alternate Japanese version

 tou kon
Fighting Spirit Scroll

闘魂 is an alternate title with the meaning “fighting spirit” or “the will to fight.”

Fighting Spirit

 tou ki
Fighting Spirit Scroll

闘気 is an alternate Japanese title for “fighting spirit.”

This one is more like “fighting energy.” The second character is “ki,” the same “ki” in Aikido. This “ki” is the spiritual energy that all martial arts practitioners must master and focus on.

 tán tuǐ
Tantui Scroll

潭腿 is the title for “Tantui,” a northern school of martial arts boxing.

 mue tai
Muay Thai Scroll

ムエタイ is the Japanese Katakana title for “Muay Thai” or “Thai boxing.”


Note: Because this title is entirely Japanese Katakana, it should be written by a Japanese calligrapher.

Drunken Fist

 suiken
Drunken Fist Scroll

酔拳 is the Japanese version of the title for Drunken Fist or Drunken Boxing.

 sobatto
Savate Scroll

ソバット is the Japanese Katakana for the French word, Savate, meaning “kick-fighting” or “French boxing.”


Note: Because this title is entirely Japanese Katakana, it should be written by a Japanese calligrapher.

Tai Chi Chuan Fa / Tai Ji Quan Fa

 tài jí quán fǎ
Tai Chi Chuan Fa / Tai Ji Quan Fa Scroll

太极拳法 literally translates as “Tai Chi Fist Law” though 拳法 is also known in Japanese as “Kempo” which is sometimes read as “boxing” depending on context.

Ba Gua Zhang

Martial arts term

 bā guà zhǎng
 hakkeshou
Ba Gua Zhang Scroll

八卦掌 is the title Baguazhang, a form of Chinese boxing.

Literally translated, this means “Eight Trigrams Palm.

You will see this romanized as “Ba Gua Zhang,” or “Pa Kua Chang” (same characters, just different romanization used in mainland China versus Taiwan).

八卦掌 is also known in Japan as hakkeshou or hakkesho.

All of our calligraphy wall scrolls are handmade.

When the calligrapher finishes creating your artwork, it is taken to my art mounting workshop in Beijing where a wall scroll is made by hand from a combination of silk, rice paper, and wood.
After we create your wall scroll, it takes at least two weeks for air mail delivery from Beijing to you.

Allow a few weeks for delivery. Rush service speeds it up by a week or two for $10!

When you select your calligraphy, you'll be taken to another page where you can choose various custom options.

A professional Chinese Calligrapher

Professional calligraphers are getting to be hard to find these days.
Instead of drawing characters by hand, the new generation in China merely type roman letters into their computer keyboards and pick the character that they want from a list that pops up.

There is some fear that true Chinese calligraphy may become a lost art in the coming years. Many art institutes in China are now promoting calligraphy programs in hopes of keeping this unique form of art alive.

Trying to learn Chinese calligrapher - a futile effort

Even with the teachings of a top-ranked calligrapher in China, my calligraphy will never be good enough to sell. I will leave that to the experts.

A high-ranked Chinese master calligrapher that I met in Zhongwei

The same calligrapher who gave me those lessons also attracted a crowd of thousands and a TV crew as he created characters over 6-feet high. He happens to be ranked as one of the top 100 calligraphers in all of China. He is also one of very few that would actually attempt such a feat.
