"Spiritual Monkey Emeerges from Cave" is one of many techniques in the Monkey Style where a smaller sized exponent can defeata a bigger-sized powerful opponent

---

A Monkey stylist is usually small in size, and his movements are generally “soft”. How would he overcome a bigger size opponent who is powerful?

Monkey techniques are graceful and employ the tactic of using minimum force against maximum strength. The pattern “Spiritual Monkey Brushes Leaves” is an excellent example. An opponent’s attacks may be ferocious and powerful, but a skillful application of this pattern can subdue them.

Moreover, a Monkey stylist uses internal force, where size and muscular strength are not important. Indeed, being muscle-bound would be a disadvantage.
