Dragonzbane76,

I didnt realize there was a kung fu scene in Morgantown, I am up there periodically, next time I will have to look up your school, if it is an open school?

Morgantown.....who is your teacher...do you train in Kung Fu?

yeh, I am kinda gathering that the guy was d@mn creepy.
Thank God my Sifu is not like that LOL.

ok, I guess I will throw my 2 cents in......
Let me start by saying I am a no body :) my credentials suck....

I study under Sifu Stephen Robinson and have for a couple years....

I know that...

There are actually 2 guys in Huntington WV that teach Chi Lin....Daniel Honaker and Stephen Robinson (the later being my Sifu). Both are very skilled MAs. Neither talk to much about the Chi Lin...

Mas Judt

thanks for the insight :)

I have very little experience with Kung Fu....I took TKD and Hung Gar and now I take Chi Lin under Stephen Robinson..he has combined Hung Gar, Tavon, Chi...

Hunganyc....

AMEN

I agree with your point on strength, endurance is more accurate

I dont think the average tma punches harder than a boxer or a thai boxer, nor the reverse, I think what I was saying got lost in the...

probably the better way to put it is.....I think one should combine both forms and conditioning with "target practice"

a sniper has to learn to shoot his rifle before he can go hunting......

not so much forms, but proper form

i agree that punching at targets does make you better, I agree 100% it is far better to hit a moving target than a stationary target, the 2 cant even be compared but I think hitting a moving target...

fairly interesting read

no Master Decker is dead, I train under Sifu Stephen Robinson, who is 3rd in lineage from Master Decker. The style is very combative and straight forward, rooted and geared toward multiple oponents....

ok, maybe I am retarded.....probably am....but why such strong fealings? I have been taking Chi Lin for sometime, I am not experienced in any other for of Kung Fu, is it that bad?

thanks.....I...

lol, I should have been more specific.....
http://chi-lin.net/ is more along the lines of what I was refering to.

Thanks

Does any one in here have an knowledge of Chi Lin?

Thanks

OMG lkfmdc,

I found this
Gene Wai Doo, MD

Honolulu, HI 96813


does that count? :)

ok, I hate to even post, since I have like less than a half dozen posts and will be instantly looked upon as a Doo Wai "follower", I looked at the videos, everyone of them I slowed down with...

tentigers,
Thanks for the history lesson :) The more history I learn about Hung Gar, the more I seem to like it! Coming from Tae Kwon Do, there have been some big adjustment issues,...

Tentigers:

Tang Fong, what is the difference in that and traditional Hung Gar? I take Hung Gar from one of Tony Brown's schools, and have not been doing so for very long (about 4 months) I really...
