Indian Martial Arts Kung Fu's Ancestor? By Harjit Singh Sagoo is experimental for us. We restrict our content to Chinese styles, but in this case, even though the Bodhidharma connection of Indian arts to Kung Fu is apocryphal, we went with it (it helped to have that photo of Dr. Gurukal with Abbot Shi Yongxin). There's a wealth of untapped research in Indian martial arts. We've had good response to some deviation from Chinese styles, particularly when we ventured into Indonesian Silat or some of the Vietnamese styles as they are considered cousins to Kung Fu. If there's good response to this piece, Sagoo has a lot more research he'd be happy to share with us.
