少林拳传入济南堤口庄

济南堤口庄的人,特别是爱好武术的长者都知道,堤口庄近百年历史的少林拳是「丁老师」教的。那么「丁老师」是谁?他们与堤口庄有着怎样的故事?
民国时期,因家境贫寒,为了养家煳口,丁溪田(1858-1938)、丁延芳(1902-1964)父子二人从家乡肥城市边院镇前黄村(原太安县)推着独轮车,沿途打拳卖艺来到济南堤口庄。堤口庄是有着近 600 年历史的古老村落,是以回族为主的聚居地,正与丁溪田父子民族信仰及生活习惯相同,因此他们也就在堤口庄暂居下来。
那个年代回族习武盛行,少林拳也由此在济南得以发展。丁延正回忆,父亲丁溪田是随祖父丁士亭所学,属于代代相传,曾在南京、临沂、济宁、台儿庄、济南、宁阳、新泰、费县等地任教。
丁溪田有四个儿子,长子延芳自幼随父亲练武,精通武艺,十八般兵器件件拿得起放得下。民国时期,韩复榘任山东省政府主席时,由回族老领导马良主持山东省武术运动会。丁延正说:「我大哥曾参加十几个项目,第一天是短拳单练,第二天练刀法,第三天单练长枪、大刀等,第四天对打搏击,第五天比单刀双刀等,第六天对扎花枪。第七天总评得分,他获得全能第一名,受到大会好评,马良亲自披红戴花。短打搏击奖励一个银盾。」

比武结束后,上级主管部门领导授予丁延芳济南市国术馆第四国术社社长职称。丁氏父子俩的一生都在教武术,先后在省内外多个地方任教,徒弟朋友遍全国。每年的春会,「丁老师」的徒弟们都去亮把子,这些徒弟大部分都是回族,少数是汉族,但是很团结。
如今,虽然「丁老师」父子俩已经离开,但是其为武术传承及武德精神奠定了坚实的基础,并一直激励着武术后人奋勇向前。
The people in Jinan’s Dikou Zhuang, especially the elders who love martial arts, are familiar with the story that two men under the surname of Ding imparted Shaolin-style Boxing to the villagers a century ago. Who were they? How did they make the connection with Dikou Zhuang?
During the Republican period, Ding Xitian and Ding Yanfang left their native place and migrated to Dikou Zhuang in search of work. The two men of the Hui nationality that was accustomed to practicing martial arts helped to develop Shaolin-style Boxing in Jinan. Mr. Ding had faded into the past, but their legacy of heritage and spirit of martial arts endures, inspiring the descendants to forge ahead.
