Sho-ju Posted May 19, 2004 Posted May 19, 2004 I'd take the cane. I think it's called 'monks cane' in gung fu.

Shorinryu Sensei Posted May 20, 2004 Posted May 20, 2004 There is a kobudo and wushu gym near my town, what do you think i should take? i need info's pro's and cons between the two discipline. thanks in advance guys! [/b] Just to be clear here...you have two schools locally. One teaches kobudo, and the other Wushu? I know next to nothing about Wushu (Chinese something-or-other), so I can't advise you there, but "kobudo" is an Okinawan/Japanese term refering to the weapons aspect of the martial arts. Kobudo is to weapons, that karate is to hands/feet. Get my drift? I'd suggest asking the kobudo people if they are doing empty hand karate also, and if so, what system. My nightly prayer..."Please, just let me win that PowerBall Jackpot just once. I'll prove to you that it won't change me!"
Legion Posted May 20, 2004 Posted May 20, 2004 would it hurt to do both ? .. i mean learn two sides of MAs ... Orange sash
tommarker Posted May 20, 2004 Posted May 20, 2004 next to wushu, kobudo would get boring quick... what with the constant repetition of basic movements. (sarcasm?) I'm no longer posting here. Adios.
