This article investigates and analyzes Brazilian masters’ views on tradition in Chinese martial arts. The five Brazilian masters interviewed were disciples of Chinese masters, and their views about the subject were recorded through thematic oral history. A comparison of those narratives to the theoretical framework showed that masters’ views about tradition surround maintenance of the past and changing the perspectives of martial arts over time, thus creating an elaborate relationship between structure and change.
