Where can I learn Kung-Fu?

I need to defend myself these days, because i had been holdup a few times...

Where can I learn Kung-Fu?
Give Choi Kwang Do a try (one month free). It teaches practical street defense, and the instructors are very knowledgeable.





Here's the thing about grappling, they have rules. when your are in a real street the rules don't apply. your attacker will not follow the rules, so niether should you. bite, kick, scream in his ear, do anything and everything to get up and out.





If you were held up and gun point, martial arts can not help you there. if the guy pulls out a gun, don't be a hero. even the best martial arts are no match for bullets.
Reply:The difference between Choi, which I go to, and other martial arts is practicality. Everything has a reason and purpose. Report It

My best advice would be to check out your local community centres that offer similar classes. They are often cheaper and are more ideal for new-comers.

Reply:There are varieties of "Kung-Fu" in the world...


Different gyms may teaches different kinds of art.


Honestly, if you're trying to find something which can help you in a holdup up situation, then perhaps you should really really rethink about what you want to do with the skills you learn...


Happy Learning.
Reply:You can learn it in any academy. Look at the kung-fu association in your area.

Stuff to think about...





It takes a long time to become proficient at martial arts and it requires a lot of dedication and practice. I highly recommend researching different styles because they are not all street practical. Also most fights end up on the ground within the first minute so something with grappling would be a good idea. Have you ever watched Ultimate Fighting? I've seen boxers and karate guys get taken down to the floor real fast. Once that happens the boxer can't punch and the karate guy can't kick or strike. You seem to be looking more for self defense than you are the art and discipline so keep that in mind when looking.
Reply:In the Kungfu class...lol. You need to defend yourself, thats a good perspective but I encourage you to study more about it, its philosophy and history if you go to this kinda class. YOu 'd have more progress.
