Shaolin Five Animal Kung Fu
Hi all,
I was looking to get back into martial arts and found a school that teaches Shaolin Five Animal Kung Fu. I was wondering what the style is like? What is covered usually in a class? How many forms are there? Does it have good self defence applications? Also, I am a little older (40), still in good shape, would it be something I could handle?
Thanks

How effective is Five Animals Kung Fu in real life situations?
Would someone attempt to use Five Animals Kung Fu to fight say a boxer or strret fighter?
Is Five Animals Kung Fu just a traditional style of kungfu that really isn't good for self defense?
If anyone has any knowledge of this subject, please help. Thanks.
Well how effective it is you will have to find out by training in it. We in Hung Gar have a 5 animal kungfu unarmed form Ng Ying Kuen. But i recently also found something like Ng Ying Kungfu a southern martial arts system taught bij sifu Donald Kinnie in the U.S.A. and sifu Patrick van Steen in Europe.
