EGO, please take it somewhere else.
ego, u can't say certain style is bad with ur short experience(3 years).
Talking about myself, i m 24 yrs old, and trained since i was 4. i got my first black belt(poom) in TKD in 1983, when i was 7. i trained ShanDong Shaolin and MeiHuaTangLang for my teenager years, and i got my 2nd degree blackbelt from Korea WuShu Association, and passed regional WuShuSanDa contest for Asian Games(Asian Olympics).i also trained JuDo in PoSung HighSchool which is famous for its athletic experience in korea, and some hapkido in middle school.
I have a friend who's specialized in BaJiQuan. he learned from WuLianZhi in CangZhou, HeBei, China.
he also knows PiQuaChang(BaJi&PiQua are trained together), and showed me some PiQua moves a couple of years ago.
Generally, training in korea is way much tougher than North America.
For example, i had to stand in horse stance for 30 minutes, before i learned the very basics. the classes was 5 days a week(M-F 2hours day), and sometimes the club went for hiking on sunday. this is how i trained when i was young.
Also, i got involved in lots of street fighting and group fighting(School vs School, etc.) Since there's no gun for the public in korea, we fought with mostly BareHand, BaseBall Bat ,and Iron Pipe.
I came to Canada in 1994 for school, and trained WC&Lama since then.
i now work in a security business(Private Security and In-House security), and not to brag about myself, but i never lost in 1on1 fight.
My love for Tibetan style is based on my experiences. and i m sure people here love what they train and train hard, and i respect them for that.
the reason i teach KickBoxing and TKD for my private students is because that's what they want to learn from me.
i m sure there are hundreds of different MA styles. but i believe the eventual goal is same.
as the rice ripes, its top is bending down. Human-Being's life is same, too. as we go to higher level, we become more humble.
this is how i learned.
Ego, obviously, no one here likes you, and that's because you are putting down what they love. if u think what u love is better than what we love, so be it and leave us alone. And from what i read, you are a very smart person, and i don't understand why you are doing this. i m sure u can do better than doing this. Why don't you put this effort in your training, ego?
i m sure u'll be better.
Love yourself, ego.
