Kung Fu School/Styles Question (New to MA)


Recommended Posts

You said that you would only be studying for a short period time before going away to college and that fitness was a high priority - with those two factors in mind, how about kickboxing (the contact type)? You might not get to be very good in a short period of time, but there's a good chance that you will learn enough to cotinue working out on your own if necessary.

from personal experience by talking to people there are other 'titles' to describe the relationship between fellow students and teachers.

some common used are simply didi/gege (the same as mandarin for yougner/older brother), jiaolian (teacher), dashi (lit.: big teacher), shixiong/shidi (older/younger brother in a temple environment)....

peace,

Those are interesting titles that are used. A couple of them really are lang sorta with the chinese as well.
