Jbone1 Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 Good thread Maddwarph. I mean when this question is asked a lot of the well known names will come up. What about the instuctors of those individuals.Yip Man, Chucks initials Tang Soo Do instructor, Jet Li's, and many more.But training with those who excelled in more than just one art is who I would love to train with. Bruce, Chuck, Liddell, Inosanto, and many others who are open to self expression as a Martial Artist. "What's your style?""My style?""You can call it the art of fighting without fighting."
