This is why Gongfu is "being forgotten"

[Alan Armstrong]

Gungfu not forgotten by me. MA in the 70's sure was tuff. The black belts were super good back then. I felt like a punching bag at times and humiliated constantly. For me having survived those times has instilled in me something that will last forever; respect. These teachers were forged in steel or something like it. Also intelligent not dumb brute types at all. Looking in retrospect they the teachers were borderling abusive. Lost count on the amout of bloody noses endured. I think they thought that if it doesn't kill you it will make you stronger. This was the real Gungfu spirit in your face!
