Lau Gar Kung Fu - but it's starting to turn into a bit of a corporation like TAGB T.K.D I enjoy it but it's all about the money for them now. I'm glad my Sifu is dedicated to the art rather than the business. |

yeah - this is annoying. Almost every martial art is coming into piece of shit - look at kickboxing, karate, aikido. So popular - full of ppl that dont understand what is going on , what is all about. I hate it. Bob - these martial arts are for you - just to find your, there should be many - to pick up the right one , i think |

no seriously, they all seem exactly the same to me, all to achieve the same purpose... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
yeah : ) stick = bokken and shinei suit = hakama + keikogi = Bogu armor |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
correction - hakama + keikogi + bogu armor Bob Bob Bob - the purpose is one. ways are many |
||||||||

do they all have different philosophies attached? are any more effective than others? |

is it japanes hyakusen i dont think my school's too commercial, though i pay 35 euro a month, and have to sign off three months before i want to quite, that last part buggers me a bit. but the teacher is really nice. i still dont really get wether he is a sifu: before the class we great these picture on the wall and the teacher says: greetings to sifu (or respects, i dont know actually) with the last picture, so i guess the teacher isnt a sifu |

sifu is chinese for teacher tho isn't it? Lau Gar is a nice souther style aswell so we too use fists... really in close tho... a bit cheeky, little digs here and there to set up for a big hit. People are going up there grading ladder so quickly around the UK. I learn in a rural commun and I've been doing it for 6 years now. I know people in Gloucester that have been doing it for 2 and have got to the same grade. It's all about who you know not what you know. it sucks but I still enjoy it. I'm not in it for the grades. |

'there grading' = 'the grading' |

it is japanese the best was Bruce lee - Jet could lick his ass , though he's good - its kung fu ( i havent seen concrete style in his moves ) Bob - actually styles of fighting have its own philosophy, althoug all of them are coming from Zen philosophy , which was created ages ago. too many details to post here - if you are interested - send me mail i will answer to this. |

Martial arts is good fun and you can get all sorts out of it. Fitness, Confidence, new friends, flexability and generally a nicer attitude towards things. :D |

well its a fact that jet li was an asian champion in combination of all this different styles at REALLY young age |

yeah, my school garantees the fourth grade in a year, but the lessons are pretty tough, so i guess i'll indeed have learned something. i guess it all depends on how good the school is anyway. when i did judo when i was young i couldnt be arsed to learn all the stuff and just did it to roll around fighting a bit and least of all with exams. so that was great fun though i didnt get to any grade in all those years you're alowed to post on that zen thing hyakusen, i wanna know too |
