It is vital to promote Chinese culture and values through martial arts education, and the curriculum should reflect this cultural history. With this in mind, the research will seeks to investigate perception of Physical Education teachers on Martial Arts Education and its cultural awareness of the students. taking into consideration diverse sociocultural backgrounds and beliefs. This study used a quantitative-comparative-correlational research design, which combined quantitative research, comparative research, and correlational research to examine the attitudes of Physical Education teachers (PE) towards Martial Arts Education and the cultural awareness of students. 70 PE teachers were selected to participate at a renowned university in Beijing, China. Physical education teachers generally have positive attitudes towards martial arts education, focusing on beliefs, engagement, and social norms.
