南无拳是由道教南无派创始人、全真派“北七真子”之一的谭处端1174年创建于洛阳的一套养生拳法。受道教“隐秘单传”思想的影响,南无拳历经800余年风雨,单传秘授流传至今,传承地为洛阳—南阳—洛阳—海南—洛阳。新中国成立后,南无拳第二十九代传人师维新曾担任中国道教协会第一、二、三届理事,河南省道教协会首任会长,洛阳市道教协会首任会长。上世纪70年代后,第三十代传人刘成庄在海南省从军、从警期间以南无拳名震四方,南无拳才揭开神秘的面纱。由于南无拳重在养生,习练者可祛病健体,吸引了大批爱好者。而今,全国习练南无拳者已达四五万人。
南无拳虽看似弱柳扶风,形近体操,实则雄姿勃发,柔韧有力。在数百年的传承过程中,经历代传人的不断丰富发展,南无拳形成了“刚柔并济”的特点。所谓“刚”即拳法练成后,可以达到铜头、铁臂、铁手、铁脚、铁裆的境界。所谓“柔”即拳法炼成后,可以使整个身体如春风摆柳,化雨润心,气贯筋骨,血脉畅通,疾去痛消,步履轻盈。
南无拳所体现的道家处世理念,对研究道教文化传承脉络和道家武学思想具有重要的历史文化价值、哲学价值。
由于南无拳在遵循顺任自然、清心寡欲、德养结合、养练合一的同时,更加注重强身健体、修心养性、攻防结合、防病去疾,所以弘扬南无拳也具有独特的医学和养生价值。
