August 30, 200520 yr thinking about switching over from tkd, to hung gar kung fu, in your opinions is this a good idea, looking to see what else is out there. still going to take bjj as a second school, any comments welcome..
August 30, 200520 yr Depends on what you're looking for but in my opinion, yes that would be a good idea. The only two things that stand between an effective art and one that isn't are a tradition to draw knowledge from and the mind to practice it.
September 1, 200520 yr Be prepared for ALOT of pain, especially in the arms and horse stance. . . . . . welcome to Kung Fu training.
September 5, 200520 yr We rely on our hands & arms a lot more than TKD. You'll have to get comfortable getting real close to your opponent. Training will focus on stance/drill work & bridge arm conditioning.
September 5, 200520 yr If the Hung Gar school you are thinking of going to is anything like mine, you will not have the time, energy, or desire to train in any other style at the same time. Thats not a blow to bjj i'm just being realistic and traditional hung gar demands a lot from you. To be worn out is to be renewed. -Lao Tzu
September 7, 200520 yr be prepared to be impressed.I think its a great move on your part There is no teacher but the enemy.
September 7, 200520 yr Hung Gar...is great style and hard to train.You have to have real patience to make it. http://www.youtube.com/user/sifumcilwrath"When the student is ready the master will appear"
September 12, 200520 yr doesn't hung gar have way more punches than kicks?If it is,he's going to be really out of his comfort zone. https://www.samuraimartialsports.com for your source of Karate,Kobudo,Aikido,And Kung-Fu
