    As mentioned if you're tired of reading our claims then simply stop. I don't do something that I hate doing.

    Also, if you are a teacher, why should you be concerned with another style of our art? I train with my master and teachers....whatever others do it is not my place to judge.

    Also, this thread is about whether or not there should be a SD forum. There is another thread for people who don't train and practice our style of Shaolin to put it down.
    What ego are you talking about? Is it he fact that I write that I am a teacher? Is it the fact that I write that I have experience?

    I never said that I was a great sage. I am a kung fu teacher. My judgment of what I feel is kung fu or not does hold weight.

    I am concerned with kung fu. If someone claims they are doing kung fu, and I feel that it isn't, I will will express my feelings.

    How am I putting it down? I am just telling a cat that it isn't a dog. How is that bad?

    Thumbs down

    From a traditionalist point of view, Shaolin Do is not a traditional Kung Fu system.

    Can you call Shaolin Do a CMA system sure. Even Japanese Karate Systems clame to be decendants from Shaolin.

    Every Kempo school in Americal claims to be Shaolin, case is point Shaolin Studios.

    The fact is altough they can call them selves eclectic CMA, they are not traditional Kung Fu and that's that !!!!

    No matter what style of Kung Fu you see there is a certain charecteristics in the forms that tell an expert wether it's real or memorex.

    It is my professional opinion that Shaolin Do is not a traditional Kung Fu system. After checking out some videos it loosely resembles Indonesian type of MA mixed in with Karate and Jiu jitsu.

    As far as the history of SD what can I say nothing realy checks out.

    Do you mean here on the KFM forum?

    Contemporary wushu would get a forum here before Shaolin-Do, and neither is going to happen anytime soon.

    what is a traditional shaolin system then??

    what part of what you have seen indicates that the forms are not chineses in origin??

    ..if bung bo from one system is presented and the same exact form is presented by Shaolin Do and they have the same moves, and similar applications ..how is it that Shaolin Do is not just as authentic as any other system that does this form???

    and another thing ...if you teach real kung fu how is it that you are also teaching a variety of other martialarts as well...and yet still calling it kung fu??

    Shaolin Do should have it's own forum...the title should be 'Karate'

    I think Shaolin-Do should be kept off this forum because it's obviously not a legitimate Shaolin martial arts style and it detracts from having discussions about real Shaolin.

    Would making them share one be so wrong?

    I'd love to see shaolin-do in the Other related arts forum, as kuntao. The constant work you'd have to put in sending new questions about it from the shaolin forum might make it counterproductive for the moderators though.
    Obviously, "real" is somewhat subjective and perspective based with the topic of shaolin...
    Keep it simple, stupid.
