Each style of martial arts has its own intended opponents and
situations it was designed for. Because of this, each style has its
own strengths and weaknesses. The Door Hiding and Cloud Hiding
styles were developed around 500 to 800 years ago during a volatile
political period when they were facing religious and cultural
discrimination and persecution from government authorities. Their
right to defend themselves was officially nonexistent and even
their right to exist was being challenged. Facing opponents that
had an overwhelming advantage in terms of resources and manpower,
techniques and principles for avoiding direct conflict;
manipulating opponents; and utilizing any available resources were
developed to ensure the survival of their group.
