What do you think?

What do you think about training with books? Like reading books on Kung fu. you think it’s possible to learn like this? I am doing this because where I live there is no Kung fu places just karate.

You should go and learn Karate! It is impossible to really learn Kung Fu or any other martial art from books. Documentation can not replace real teaching. :wink:

i know it couldn’t but there’s no where to learn!

Lifes a b!tch, so take karate.

Actually I did take karate and the people were jerks …bunch of punk kids and teacher…everyone had an ego problem it seemed.

Move?

Take up water polo.

Or you could tell us where you live - people might know people who know people.

I live in Pittsburgh PA i would move but i am only 16 and don’t have a job.

There are universities for kung fu?

lmao

No, he means go to University of Pitt, pick up a book with all the classes, check to see if there are martial arts. The college I go to offers JuJutsu, Kickboxing and Tae Kwon Do (offered at different campuses, sadly none are on my campus). Check Pitt out, they might have classes.

GM CS Kim (tang soo do) is in Pittsburgh. Good guy.
Master Scott Homschek is in Ambridge. Excellent instructor.

Most colleges have sports clubs out the wazoo, many of which are martial arts oriented. Ohio State has about 19. Penn State has quite a few as well.

Dam n, kid, if this is how you do your homework don’t bother with college, just start polishing your drive-up window customer service skills.

er, isn’t pittsburgh one of the thriving-est metropolises on the east coast?! and there’s NO kung fu?!

montgomery village, maryland has kung fu. and it comprises about four city blocks. yet pittsburgh doesn’t.

i’m not buying it. sorry.
