where do these guys keep coming from?
I was wondering whether anyone here has actually found a use for kung fu.
You know, it used to take 6 months in the old days before moving on to something different. I don't regret taking that long to fully get to understand what i was being shown. And i never questioned whether my sifu knew what he was doing. IT WAS CLEAR HE DID.
As a stand up martial art, Kung Fu or Gung Fu as some will say, is very good if you train right.
It seems like many kung fu teachers either don't know or don't teach the applications, which seems to make the forms useless.
This is true. But in many cases, teachers had to be careful with what they were teaching because if anyone got hurt in class the possibility of the student coming back to sue to teacher was pretty high. and teachers don't want to be sue or lose their schools.
On top of this, many teachers were only good within the studio. Sure, inside the school they were fast, strong, and even fierce. but, would crumble in a real fighting situation cause they never fought before or never trained to FIGHT...BUT, not all teachers are useless (combat wise). Some teachers have actually used in it real life situations and even killed with it.
I mean, if a Shaolin warrior monk who has trained his whole life isn't going to teach important concepts how can one rely on someone else?
It's clear you've never really trained in TCMA or you'd know that kung fu teachers don't usually give up all their hard earned knowledge in one 7 course meal.
