Then it's settled. Tae Kwon Do is now Tae Kwon Don't. Or perhaps even Take your Dough?
I noticed a whole lot of votes for BJJ....hmmmmmm. And a lot of votes for that People's Party administered dance-art called WuShu. Not that ANY CMA on this board studies that or anything :confused:

Taijiquan what? The REAL GOOD stuff or that watered down, *******ized stuff you see old people doing in the park while wearing silk pijamas and copying some old Asian dude?
They offer Taijiquan at the university in my city (though I don't go there...yet). Can't wait `til I transfer there, Im gonna take it and see if its the good **** or the watered down stuff. I knew one girl who went to a county college about an hour from me that offered Shaolin Kung Fu. So maybe (though I doubt) the university offers the real stuff...

I noticed that too - I bet it was several TMA guys that did it.

It's probably done the same way we do it here. Our school teaches two classes for the local univeristy: 1) Intro to Kung Fu and 2) Intro to Tai Chi Chuan. The courses are 8 weeks, held twice a week, for 1 hour per class.
We do it as an adjunct course, meaning my Sifu gets adjunct status as a univeristy professor. Most specialty classes are handled this way--archery, shooting, etc...
So, I wouldn't expect that the university your talking about has their own Tai Chi or Kung fu instructor. It's probably a local teacher who teaches classes for the univeristy. Just find out who does the teaching, and visit their school sometime. Most likely, it's someone close to the univeristy.

Yeah, that surprised me too. I do wing chun, but since this is Bullshido we're talking about, I'm surprised it isn't on here!
