Tai chi means suppream ultimate. It represents everything that exists, wich came from the wu-ji, the void of potential. So to a person, tai chi is the live they lead, in accordance with the Tao. Qigong is the component movements and breathing. You cant do tai ch, you are tai chi. The fact is without the movements, you can still live a tai chi life. as for styles being better than this and that. I cant believe people still cling to such monotounous statements. You must think fighting is like painting a masterpiece, well its not it like hitting a nail into a plank of wood. If I told you I was a, karatea for example. You would come up with some kind of gameplan, and I would now have an advantage.

What?? Taiji is not a Martial art? is that your point? I sure as hell hope that isnt what youre trying to say
Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing.

this thread obviousley has some kind of a "Gameplan" for sticking around, but I now have the advantage, my reply is fast but small, as I verbally kick the thread in the groin it goes down and I poke the threads eyes and stand on it till I kill it, because its not about who is right or wrong but how much I want this thread to die.

Just a light response nothing serious concerning somebodies opinion of karate in a fight. You are assuming the karate practitioner is in some sort of cage match or similar brawling situation. Most effective technique in karate is gouging the eyes. It's in every style of karate I am familiar with. The US military teaches you to gouge eyes during your first basic training in hand to hand. IE it must be effective. Street brawling for you young bucks seems to be a peeing contest. I am 40, take care of 7 children and 2 special needs people. I am confident if I needed to use shorin ryu to defend myself against a brawler I can and have taken even the younger guys down with a simple flick to the eyes. If you are gonna compare MMA type brawling to a real street fight you can use MMA and I will take a simple baseball bat. See how effective it is after 1 blow to the head.

yeah I'm still an old coot learning how to use the forums but that is the quote I want to use in my signature.
This is totally wrong. Kung Fu is the most advanced, effective fighting system on the planet, in my opinion.
Your opinion is based on speculation and faith...
Not to disparage YOU personally but your kung-fu is simply DOGMA until you actually USE it as you claim...
I hope you never face a potentially deadly situation. I would never wish trauma on anyone but there is more to be said for losing a real fight than can be said for "winning" ten thousand trophies for Kata.
Without "PROOF" all you have is a theory, a concept, an OPINION and your faith in Kung=Fu.
More power to you but there is no need to "preach" the merits of your game here. (really) We know. Okay?
