Hello, little about me : I'm really new to martial arts. Of course ive watched movies all my life, etc, but neverbecame as interested in doing one as I am now. Anyway, Ive decided I would like to learn Kung Fu for several reasons. One, it has both external and internal aspects, two, it is (hopefully) and authentic art, and three to help develope some form of self defense other than simply wailing on someone as Ive always done in those situations.
My question is regardign the first school ive taken a look at. I noticed the Sifu payed great attention to his visitors, and mainly corrected his senior students on technique as they practiced with intermediate students. I am wondering if class size should be taken into account. Even if the Sifu has great accomplishments, those only become a benefit to me if they are passed on. My question is, can I still learn as much as i need to in a class of 15 - 20 or should I be looking for soemthign smaller?
Thanks in advance for replies.
