Ring Fu

A school that has a teacher that is well rounded already does this.
I understand there is a lot of crappy schools out there, but if you are going to a Kung Fu school that doesn't have a san da or si yao da component, then I would say you've made a bad choice of schools.

All good Kung Fu schools have that guts first / condition second / technique last ladder.

I think that's an unfairly based value judgment because there are good hard core traditional schools that go in depth into their style's training methodology, but it's the same methodology from two-hundred or three-hundred years ago and that doesn't take into account how people train and fight today. Yes we're getting into a rules component and a sport environment, but that's today's environment and where you'll most likely end up displaying your skills. So why go it alone when there is a perfectly valid distinctly Chinese training methodology which works in a sporting environment?
