Wudang or just more Wushu
Well I am very excited about the fact that I found a Wudang school in my area taught by Master Bing. A man who has lived in Wudang for 15 years, and has kust left it to come here 1 1/2 years ago. So to learn from this man is to learn from an authentic Wudag master. My only fear is has this art turned into another Shaolin. Now let me explain Shaolin guys and gals, it's not that I don't have respect for the art, on the contrary, but I believe that since the cultural revolution, Shaolin has been redefined as a bit of a tourist attraction. But that's off topic, does anyone here train in the Wudang arts, and can someone tell me it's not just mere Wushu ??!!
After the Cultural Revolution?
Shaolin has been criticized as a tourist attraction for centuries. It's part of the tradition. If you have some romantic vision that Shaolin is like Kwai Chang Caine, you haven't even entered our first chamber yet. :p
I think that burner is electric now...
...so it took me half a decade to reply to stonecrusher69. Better late than never...:rolleyes:
Actually, I just wanted to post this below. Someday I might have to make a Wudang performances threadakin to all the Shaolin performances threads.
