Sanshou is a martial arts term which refers to a type of Chinese kickboxing that combines striking, takedowns, and throws. Synonyms for this term can include a few different terms, depending on the context: Sanda, which is another common name for the style of martial arts, is one option. Other synonyms may include things like "Chinese kickboxing" or "Chinese boxing," both of which may be more broadly descriptive of the style of fighting rather than the specific term. Yet another possible synonym is CCTV (Chinese Central Television) martial arts, which frequently showcases sanshou bouts. Regardless of the specific terminology used, sanshou remains a highly effective and well-regarded style of martial arts.
