Does anyone know where one can learn such a style? I live in the Cleveland, Ohio area and wish to learn this style. Also, where can i find out information on schools in my area that are accredited, or have long lineage. I am new to this artform, and not sure if the school I wish to persue is a good one. Thanks!

This question was once asked this forum and confusing answer was that no-one really knew if there is drunken style school on the whole world.

I'm not going to disregard the possiblity that somewhere, at some time there was an entire style dedicated to the Drunken kung fu, BUT I will state what I know and what I've learned.

I don't practice the drunken form, not yet at least. There are no students in my school who know any of the drunken forms and my sifu doesn't teach it.

Drunken Style, from my understanding, is a misconception. Drunken Kung Fu is a form. Many schools have it. I know for a fact that Wah Lum, as I am a student of Wah Lum Pai, has a drunken form as many other systems do as well.

If you're looking into learning a drunken form, ask the sifu in any of the schools you check out if there is a form. Also understand that the drunken form is generally a very advanced form and requires sick flexibility to perform correctly. It's not something you'll learn for a while.

edit: holy cow... I just looked at my registration date. 1970?!?! I've been a member of KFO's forums for longer than I've been a live. :D

There should be a Hung Fot (Fut) School in Ohio. That systm has a drunken set which seems to be one of the highlihgts of the System. -ish Very good.
