I do cma, more spacificaly jook lum because It RULES NO SERIUOSLY where I live the only Arts I was exposed to at the time were TKD and karate I didn't know of any other arts. I was playing around w/ my cuz and he hit and it hurt like a somb!tch then he says " oh I do Kung fu Now " I came to 1 class and was so impressed, I decided to join. I stuck w/ it because to this day in my opinion I havn't seen anything as effective. (at least in my area)

well,

for myself, i grew up around martial arts. both my father and brother were karate people. I remember my father used to set bricks on fire around the house and break them with his bare hands.

as a kid, i thought my father was god. i remember he used to get disqualified for breaking noses in tournaments back in the days too.

Then with my brother being a bruce lee fan, i followed in their footsteps. but karate, judo, tai mantis, all didn't have what i was looking for.

then i came across hung sing choy lee fut. since being from the streets, this was the most impressive style i saw. very realistic. so i stuck with it.

I was always attracted to Kung Fu over styles from other countries, regions, and cultures. I had the belief that Kung Fu (when taught and trained correctly which I admit is rare) was more balanced than other martial arts. I wanted to learn striking, internal cultivation and energy work, philosophy, culture, and grappling without having to mix martial arts or traditions. So originally I went looking for Kung Fu pretty exclusively. Within Kung Fu, though I started with Hung Gar because it was the toughest, most traditional class I could find in my area. In short I picked Hung Gar because it just so happened that the most skilled Sifu in my area taught Hung Gar. I stayed Hung Gar, b/c it is not only the most balanced system I have found (for me) but it also just fits my personality, psychology, etc. Basically it is the best style for me. It is a good fit. It has been very effective for me both personally and interactively with stylists from other traditions.
