    Smile Animal Kung Fu

    We all have heard of animal styles of kung-fu, monkey, tiger, eagle, crane.
    this is just for fun, what animal style would you create given the chance?
    and what would be it's characteristics.

    I would make bull kung fu, based around planting firmly in stances, using
    a lot of shoulder checks and pushes, power more then grace, and maybe
    a double knife weapon addition for the horns. however I could only fight
    people wearing red. and training would involve eating a lot of grass and standing
    very still.

    this is for fun, so be as slapstick as you want.

    Raven style.

    would look like a cross between snake, eagle, and crane most likely.

    The raven is my totem animal according to my native background. Not to mention ravens are the smartest common bird, naturally they own.

    I like PangQuan's idea about Raven Style. I love ravens for their intelligence, ingenuity, and sometimes cantankerous attitude.

    For me it would be the fossa. It is a little known animal native to Madigascar. It looks kind of like a cross between a weasel and a cat. It is aggressive, mean, and very quick. A great kung fu style could be developed from this animal.

    I really like the idea of a raven kung-fu
    I honestly have never heard of a fossa, but it sounds like a wolverine.
    or ferret ethier would be cool.

    I picked the bull because i'm a taurus. my other choice was a pig, far east zodiac
    I really wouldn't know what a pig could do to hurt someone other then sit on them
    or transmit a disease by being eaten.

    You gotta cut down that 10 years. I'm much too impatient to wait that long. In one year you will have a kicka_ _ system.

    Chameleon Kung Fu.
    Primary focuses include adaptability and flow in combat, stealth and climbing skills, standing still, and diligent practice in an attempt to train the eyes to look in different directions at once.

    I already have Infinite Monkey Boxing so I'll add:

    Lemming Style - whatever your opponent throw you throw the same technique back at him

    Meercat Style - you train your buddies to keep an eye out for trouble and watch your back

    Turtle Style - a combination of Iron Body and Tai Chi
    What happens in Gong Sao stays in Gong Sao.

    I'd create judo fish style. This guy bodhitree keeps talking about fish which got me thinking- the way fish toss and turn and swim. If, using my psychology, I could create a system that was both philosophical and spiritual then I could make the fish style.

    Well there has to be some trade-off for being a pig.

    I mean talk about good news / bad news.

    I would have said bear style but then I found out that Baji already has it. Now I just want to learn Baji.
