Here is some more info on Kung Fu:

Kung Fu is Chinese originally meaning: "Hard Work" but is now a generic term for Chinese martial art types. It is primarily an unarmed mode of personal combat and is often equated with Karate or Tae Kwon Do. Kung Fu can be traced back as far as 111-255 BC when the Chou dynasty practiced this form of martial art!

Those are really great links. I knew very little about kung fu and what I did know came from movies. I do agree that a misconception of martial arts is that it is mainly to fight.

I will admit that same thing Raven. Everything I knew came from badly dubbed martial arts movies. Great links! I never knew that Kung fun had such an amazing history.

Man i always wanted to learn Kung Fu but never could ... The thing that gets me the most is thath you train your spirituality also and with it your inner peace...
