- the furious five
- Tigress: One would think that Master Oogway would choose someone who actually knew kung fu.
Crane: Yeah, or could at least touch his toes.
Monkey: Or even see his toes.
- A real warrior never quits!
- Dragon Warrior
- There is no secret ingredient...
- You're a disgrace to kung fu, and if you have any respect for what we are and what we do, you'll be gone by morning.
- One often meets his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it.
- Ah, Dragon Warrior, I am simply at peace.
- This is where Oogway unraveled the mysteries of harmony and focus. This is the birth place of kung fu.

Chinese Martial Arts? Kung Fu?? Hmm?
Hey guys!! I'm 20 years old :/ and a girl,,
I've always had interest in chinese martial arts,,
and I've always wanted to try it but never had the... i don't know.. to just.. start it.. u know??
but I live in Northern VA and I just suddenly wanted to try it out
I'm always catching colds and over weight a bit,, 5'2 and 152 pounds..
and i want to get healthy and start living a new life basically
Im a bakery student and it's basically using my body and holding myself up all day
so i wanted to kno if this was a good idea??
i should never take anything lightly and just try it out but should i??
but where can i get a good master and a place,, in VA
i don't want to go to a place where they'll just rip my money off of me
i work and go to school i don't have much time... but if you think it's a good idea

I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT I"M UP AGAINST
so ..,, i don't know wanything about martial arts!! so pleas eHELP THHANXXXX|||Kung Fu will help you tremendously with self-confidence, and some self-defense skills. But if you want to loose weight, I'd like to suggest buying a treadmill and start out with 20 minutes a day at 3.5 miles per hour slowly increase it to 4 miles per hour when you feel comfortable at it, after a couple months go to 30 minutes, maybe three months later change to 45 minutes a day... you can keep 4 miles per hour at 45 minutes will take you about 3 miles of running everyday buring around 500 calories. This running regiment will do a lot more to get you in shape, this on top of kung fu and a regiment of stretching will make you healthy, confident and sexy. I think most guy's will agree with me that a cute girl who knows kung fu to be very sexy and dangerous. good luck I hope everything works out for you.|||I go to college in Ohio, and im thinking about join this local kung-fu place, I've had four years of karate when I was a kid, so im sure i'll like it, and who wouldn't want to be able say that they know advanced kung fu one day? I recommend it, and ya im pretty sure that i'll be joining to.|||I know of one in Fairfax (their website also lists a school in Chantily)
http://omei-wushu.com/|||9209746 White Birch Kung Fu Academy in Arlington.
The sifu is credible and his school caters to beginners, at least acc. to the website.|||Well Kung Fu is a generic term used to describe all Chinese MAs. There are hundreds of styles of Kung Fu. U should check google for a list of schools in ur area so u know whats available to u. Research the schools, their instructors, and their lineages. After u sorted out the McDojos u should visit the schools and talk with the instructors. Then decide for urself which is right for u.
I personally prefer Chen Style Taijiquan. Its a great MA if u can find a good instructor and it works wonders for ur immune system. Finding a good Taijiquan instructor is difficult because of all those new age @ssholes who teach it as a health exercise. Anyone who makes it sound mystical either has no idea what theyre talking about or is just trying to rip u off.
Good luck|||Before joining, try to search for all the posts here in yahoo! answers, for the type of martial arts that you are interested in. Try to look for the topics on what to look for in a dojo or dojang, how to spot a fake school, and the lineage (if it is a kung fu school). Also, before joining, take their free class offering and see if you're going to enjoy it, how the instructor conducts his class and how students interact with instructor/fellow students.
You might also consider the schedule, location and fees.|||It would really help to know what city you're in or around.
Is it safe to say you're in the DC area?
I know that Dean Chin has a couple of schools in that area. I'm sure he has one in Virginia. He is an Authentic Jow Ga Master. Jow Ga is a great Chinese Art based on Tiger Crane and Choy Ga. Not many Jow Ga schools in the US and this is one of the good ones. The other Master of Jow Ga is Dr Chin in NYC.
I highly recommend this.
Here is a video clip of Jow Ga -

What is the spirituality of Chinese Kungfu and Japanese Samurais?
What is the spirituality of Chinese Kung fu and Japanese Samurais?
When i watch Japanese films, they don't give a clear idea about their spirituality. Chinese film shows buddhist deities in their films , here and there. But then Who are Taoist ?|||Just Google Taoism and Buddhism for Chinese religion and google Shintoism and Zen Buddhism for Japanese religion.
As far as I know, and anyone can correct me if I'm wrong, Taoism is the religion that founded the Yin Yang Philosophy of Tai Chi and is centered in the Wudang/Wu Tang Mountain Temple. While Buddhism is centered in the Shaolin Temple.
Shintoism is the ancient Japanese religious practice of venerating their ancestors and is as old as Japan itself, while Zen Buddhism is an offshoot of Chinese Chan Buddhism and was the religion practiced by most of the Samurai during the medieval era.|||There are many religions in Asia. Kung Fu is a generic term that describes all Chinese MAs. The two main schools of religion in China are Buddist and Taoist but that doesnt meant there arent Muslims in China or ither religions. Many martial artists were hired as security for trade caravans that traveled the Silk Road. Tea and spices were traded as far as Turkey.|||Kungfu is a kind of Chinese sports or martial art, and samurai is an occupation, old Japanese soldier.
Many years ago, Japanese believe that the truth can not be explained by words. because it is very complicated, a human can get the truth from only the ascetic practices or one's experience.|||Taoism, Confucianism and Buddhism = China
Shintoism and Buddhism = Japan
Kung Fu/Gung Fu = Buddhist
Samurai = Shinto/Buddhist|||Ok so you have the resources to ask this question, but not do a simple google search?

About the kung fu Qiang Shu (chinese spear)...?
ok, so the chinese spear is made of waxwood for durability + flexibility, and the red horsehair on the spearhead is for confusing the enemy and stopping the flow of blood from head to shaft.
now i always wonder why is there a bell inside the spearhead?? been bothering me for the longest time|||a bell inside the spearhead锛?then the audience can hear the performance. in fact there was no bell in the history.|||when it hits it sounds so they kno it hit

Do Japanese use kung fu too or is it only chinese that use kungfu?
There are some kata and some movements and techniques in kata that show a strong Chinese influence and in the 1800s and early 1900s there were people from the mainland that did study martial arts in Japan and Okinawa as well as some Japanese that traveled and studied arts of the mainland there. There was a lot of exchange of ideas and concepts between the two during this time frame. Look at the style Goju-ryu and its influence by White Crane Kung-fu and the influence that southern China had on the development of that style of karate and that is a good example of this I think.
This all changed though in the early 1900s as southern China was dominated by Japan and several other countries and colonized for financial and economic gain. During this time frame also the Japanese systematically went through their own culture removing as much of the Chinese influence and its presence from it as they could, even in martial arts. It was thought or considered as impure and base in nature and not refined. These two things together with WW ll and all the war atrocities that Japan committed on mainland China and its people did not exactly contribute in any positive way to this either and the Chinese basically did the same thing with respect to their culture. They only exchanged official diplomatic relations in the late 70s and that was thirty years after the end of WW ll and relations today are still somewhat strained because of the past as well as the present. If you do some reading about Goju-ryu, Shito-ryu, Shorin-ryu and White Crane Kung-fu you will run across some of these aspects and also read about some of this and how it all came about and why and some of it was later discarded due to cultural influences.|||technically since the words kung fu means hard work the Japanese and every culture use it in some ways and the Chinese martial arts( have influenced many different styles throughout the world
traditionally they do not use it however I am sure many practice styles of kung fu|||Kung fu is chinese, but many of the founders of the karate arts studied kung fu in Southern China.
Some say that white crane is the ancestor of karate and that eagle claw is the ancestor of jujitsu.|||A Shaolin monk opened a temple in Africa and teaches Shaolin Kung Fu to Africans. Does a persons race or gender stop someone from learning, practicing, or using any MA?|||Kung Fu is Chinese. Karate is Japanese. But I'm sure there is some cross-over between the two countries.|||Chinese...
