if you aren't deadset on bagua or don't find an instructor to your liking in that particular style, check out the school i train at. www.tigerkungfu.com
i guess you could call it a "lesser known"...

hate to say this kung lek, but you math may be at fault. i skimmed through it too fast the first time as well and just went off the two digits added together instead of adding then subtracting from...

this is pretty nutty, we have the same name. it's a conspiracy... lol

definitely a good idea to stay away from that crazy old coot, do a search on this site and sit back and enjoy the read... helps if you are inebriated, 'cause there was a ton of laughs last time i...

it's the school i train at, and we have quite a few students from UCSD as well as the other local colleges. however, it is closest to UCSD so you won't have far to go to get to class. i believe...

thanks for the reply red5. i know mountain lions and such are related, but it still seems most of the panther type cats are in north and south america. if they have chinese mountain lions then i...

a lot of chinese arts i have heard of or researched that are based in animal principles include either a panther or jaquar in their lexicon. what i have always wondered, are there panthers or...

it's the man himself starting the post. sounds like a great event, wish i could make it. best of luck, and it was nice meeting you when you came by the school.

the white tiger listed is i believe a mix of korean and japanese styles founded by a guy from houston area. he stopped by our school out here when he was on vacation or something a while back. i...

when he came to our school it was just him, his wife, and his top student David, but he did talk about how tough his female students were and how he made his wife train only with men so she would...

i have actually met the rather rotund "soke" in question. did my early years in a shorin-ryu dojo when i was younger. he did a seminar there claiming all sorts of things. i have him on tape (it's...

no worries bro, just puttin' my side of things out there ;). we are very internal and i do agree it's not for everyone, and we do wait until the students are capable of a modicum of control before...

just read one of your earlier posts with your friends recommendations. i think he or you might be confusing our school (white tiger) with the Choy Lay Fut chain of schools (white dragon). we have a...

kungfuyou,

woah there buddy! ;)

just a clarification, the choy li fut is called White Dragon school, our White Tiger school is real Bak Fu Pai (White Tiger System). It is also located in Mira...

i can also agree with bsh that real white tiger is nothing like the stuff we call karate. my first experiences in martial arts were within the walls of a Shorin-ryu dojo, and i can tell you white...

unfortunately i wasn't there, but that would have been pretty cool... ;)

i guess my idea of a pure lineage is one that is passed down through the generations with the core forms intact. other...

i don't doubt Bak Mei and Bak Fu Pai look similar given the close contact of the founders. however, the point i was trying to make was the actual Bak Fu Pai lineage is one pure line regardless of...

sorry for the delay in reply, i don't usually check KFO on the weekend.

fierce tiger:
in response to your question, i am quite certain that our Grandmaster is the one and only lineage holder of...

Bak Fu Pai was not created by the Doo family, but it was passed to them by the founder of the style, therefore the Doo family would be the sole lineage for Bak Fu Pai and has been that way for...

Bak Fu Pai has only one lineage.

i do believe that some styles are taught differently in closed door environments than in public. by that i also want to say that i think the modern idea that all info is public and that there are no...

there is a certain stage of enlightenment that can only be acheived cryin' into your beer with Waylon wailin' at top volume. perhaps i will go searchin' for it tonight in his honor.... ;)

from your descripition it sounds like you pulled or strained the muscles or ligaments around your rib cage. it's not all that uncommon believe it or not, and i have personally used dit da jow to fix...

not truly relevant to this discussion i guess, but i just read this weekend that Chang is the most common surname in the world. easily beats out Smith and all the other common names you can think of...
