[QUOTE=bawang;1047382]i dont think its turning sadder less and less people are doing kung fu. which makes me very happy
chinese people dont do that. we have better things to do, like takin over africa.[/QUOTE]
I guess from that perspective it is true. I am just sad that my old teacher will have to close his school. I wish the best for him but no one wants to do forms anymore.
north american martial arts is the fringe of chinese amrtial arts. wing chun , hung guys, cabbage lee fut, white pubis, comepletely unknown. and chiense martial arts in general isnt even that good.
your teacher chose a life of no education, no hardwork, just cheap easy money ripping off people exploiting the bruce lee craze, he paid the price now he goes down with the sinking ship.
teaching kung fu takes 0 effort. just lots of ego stroking and manipulating and sweet talk. get a real job.

yes, less people playing around is better.
more people serious and dedicated to the art form is better.
gotta weed out the play fighters, the posers and the lazy.
only the determined will attain kungfu, but having less people will clear out a lot of distractions and impediments.

China isn’t allowed to do anything but enslave it’s populace and have them make shoes and iPods for us white people over here.
and, to make sure the slavery goes on, they can’t even make enough money to own the phones and shoes they make for us.
Africa is already owned by white people. All that’s left for the Chinese is Iran. We don’t want that, you guys can have it.

Yes and no.
China has produced more millionaires than any nation other than the US.
More cars were sold in China last year than in America.
Almost all of my middle school students (in central China) have cellphones.
A Mac store recently opened up in town.
The folks actually making those iPhones maybe can’t afford them but the market price for a new iPhone in Xi’an is more than in the states. They sell for about 6000 RMB our here. (that’s about $900 USD! :eek:)
So actually, those with money in China have plenty of it and while they are a small percentage of the population, in absolute numbers the rival the US.

He actually does not make any money. He, like many tcma teachers, make just enough to pay the rent. Making a little money is important but he has not even made a little.
David,
You talk about China from your jaded point of view. Let me talk about your country from my American point of view. Canada coddled its 20 citizens. People who cannot make it in America move to Canada for free healthcare. Everyone from everywhere always say they want to come to the United States. They never say they want to go to Canada to live. Take a look at your population for God’s sake. 35 million people? No wonder you never fight any wars…your whole country would be wiped out. No offense to Canadian’s in general but David should not diss other countries when he lives in…oh nevermind. No country dissing pwease.
alpha centauri.
all the “realz deadly” kung fu guys own that one all ready. :rolleyes:
mysterious
now your going to give us your opinion on world politics and speak bad about and entire country? God the internet allows any idiot to have a say even if its uneducated and lacking certain um facts, this just keeps getting better and better.
i was just generalizing man. even if ur teacher doesnt make much, he teaches for money and puts him self in a position of pwoer. most students are prolly distant and dont really care.
i learned for free and i dont have masters, i have frends and brothers. if i find my old teacher i give him half my money i think hes on welfare now. r u willing to do that noe.
good thing learning free is you know the truth. theres no NO YOU HAVE TO DO THIS IN OUR LINEAGE WE DO THIS you are free from all that.

You need to crap on David Jameson for dissing China as well. No double standards please. If it is okay for him to generalize China than I can do so as well.

I do not seriously believe though that it is bad to teach and make money off of it. I have a problem when students are misled.
I trained in too much bs. The names do not matter since they were all forms and easy training. I might as well have studied Chinese Seal Kung fu.
