When the subject of Shou Shu comes up it always gets real interesting.

I love my heavy bag. I use MMA gloves, and take out all my frustrations on it with a vengeance.

I use it to practice many scenarios that I have envisioned in self defense situations, and mix up...

I have to admit that some members of the TCMA community have created some of their own problems. I will just mention a couple of them. There have been some unethical instructors who have taught close...

The evolving nature of Kung Fu is very important to keep in mind, as you pointed out. It has always evolved. Adaptation is a huge part of the survival scenario. But then again, this can be said about...

To get an MA in Chinese History takes a lot of hard work, and congratulations on the Kung Fu (diligent effort) you put into getting it.

I have two degrees beyond my BA and several martial arts...

My goodness. So condescending. There is nothing new under the sun, and everything stated is accurate.

You are probably one of those people who would say, "Those people who think they know...

This subject has been dealt with about as much as the D-Day Invasion, but it is still fun. Here are my non-original thoughts.

1) Everything in MMA is found in Kung Fu.
2) Kung Fu is about...

It is a different publication. This one doesn't start with "Inside".

Good points. I carry a kubaton and a folding knife almost everywhere I go. The only exceptions are those areas where I know I won't get away with it, such as an airport.

I ain't looking for...

Thanks for sharing.:)

Most of the time I carry a kubaton and a folding knife. I tell people the kubaton is a decoration, which it is. The folding knife is a tool 99.999% of the time.

When I go to a place where these...

I am under the impression that we all lost that last match with death.:(

There was a contestant on Deal or No Deal the other day who was more terrified of a squirrel than a man eating tiger. That shows how vicious the littler buger is. To create an entire system based on...

Careful now, Chuck N. lurks on this forum.:)

Thanks for sharing. I've always felt that Kung Fu San Soo is an excellent style.

I wouldn't mind going to Tasmania. Sounds like a great place to visit and study.

I have worked very hard for years to show respect for those involved in the martial arts, and the many systems that exist.

Having said that, I am beginning to believe that there are some real...

I know that I am because it has a funny sounding name and the instructor looks Asian to me.

They are training in their final abode and have added the pitchfork as a traditional weapon to their system.

Their footwork is quite good because they have so many hot rocks under their feet. :)

That was kinda funny. Thanks.:)

Assuming similar physical stature and athletic ability, do you think a MMA could enter a kwoon with no rules and do well?

White Tiger is known as Bak Fu Pai in case you want to search it using that name.

He looks happy in that guard position. Wonder if he wants to go for a mount?;)

Do a Fu Jow Pai search on Google. Perhaps there is instruction in your area.

Personally, I make it a point to not criticize schools, systems or instructors. If someone were attacking a school I liked on an internet forum, I would not get in a p _ _ _ _ _ g contest because, in...
