ming chuan

hey, does anyone know anything about this style? there is a club not to far away from me and i was thinking of giving it a try.
i had a look at there site. there seems to be a lot of kicking and breaking. i assume it a northern style because of the high kicking??
thanks

Never heard of it... got a website?

Ok... let's look at a couple of things...

from the "About" page ... Northern Style Kung Fu

“	Kickboxing, bando and thai-boxing are facets which are encompassed in the Ming Ch'uan regime.	”

--- WTF??

“	The use of "toda korusu", 108 weaponed systems and military close-quarter combat as practiced by the World's elite forces.	”

--- WTF??

“	A subtle aspect inherent within Ming-Ch'uan is the development of "nui-gung" and "chi-gung"(inner powerand breath power)	”

--- Nei gung maybe?

From the syllabus page --- Northern Style Kung Fu

“	Shodan Ho	”

--- WTF??

I'm thinking they like to get together & break stuff mainly. I didn't see anything in the pics or docs that truly says Northern CMA.

This pic on the index page of Ming Ch'uan USA tells me a lot already

Ming Chuan sounds pretty bogus to me. But if it is practiced by the wold's elite it must be pretty good then, right? LOL. (sarcasm).

I'm sold.

They could teach me pie throwing, seltzer shooting and balloon animal making as a deadly martial art, as long as I get that

If they can teach me Hadoken I'm definitely in.

Hey, I think we can mix this art with the WASP knife testing.... Anyone up for stabbing some melons?

That's weak. Stabbing bricks is the way of the future. With proper CHI, one will be able to penetrate and shatter bricks with a small weapon, such as a pocket knife.

If the melons are like those above, I won't be using a WASP!
