Bruce...changed the Kung Fu theory

and took the good from the bad in a way and created Gung Fu..the kung fu style was and still is very easily defeated by arts such as ju jitsu and aikido...don't get me wrong..bruce was a real bad ass..but he was also very intelligent and he knew the many faults of kung fu. The Samurai took over japan and most of china..using the katana and aikido and iado...the samurai lived by the bushido which my self and others still TRY to live by today..kung fu is beautiful to watch but i have seen "masters" of kung fu very easily defeated by students of aikido...i don't mean to start some kind of war or debate here..but i have trained in many forms and started as a child with judo at age 9..i am now 39..so i have just a little to say about the subject...if you look at kung fu vs. karate...kung fu is like hitting someone with a whip..wheree as karate is like hitting someone with a brick..kung fu stings where as karate breaks...then we can talk about aikido and chin na...no kung fu fighter at the same level of experience can defeat chin na nor an aikido fighter...at my very own dojo we have friday night fight night and most are absolutley terrified to go up against chin na or aikido...i have actually seen guys go to the bathroom just to change places in line to get out of it.
