From what I've heard, this discipline is a derivative of kickboxing, with ohter elements thrown in depending on your instructor. It's one of the martial arts taught in my area, an I'm seriously considering taking it up; I just need a little background information. Does it teach practical fighting techniques, does it provide good exercise and does it involve any Katas or other demonstrations?

Lau Gar, is a form of Shaolin Gung Fu, not related to kickboxing.

 

Lau Gar was created from the style of Mok-Gar Kuen, so legend has it, was originally developed by a midget called Mok_Da-Si, in the Shalolin monastery Southern China. He taught this style, known then as shaolin chunen, to his family in the Tong-Kwun district of Kwong Tong province, and the name was retained until the third generation, when it was renamed Mok Gar.

 

It consists of many aspects of weapons and unarmed combat. Like most chinese styles in emcompess's forums(kata) and like ALL martial arts its good exercise.

 

Hope this helps

 

Take Care.
