now when we see some demonstration of Kung Fu, usually have access to a number of ways, "choreography" that does not necessarily demonstrate complete knowledge of martial arts. The forms are perhaps the most kung fu have been preserved, leaving aside (at least in the West) methods of practice and the "martial flavor" of practice.
Today it is common to see in a school, good manners on the one hand, heavy fighting on the other. And in the middle, often a large empty space.
factors to consider when evaluating this trend are several. On one side is the lack of time the current practitioner, who trains two and three times a week and therefore can not address the full training.
On the other hand, there are few teachers know only in part the method of practice of the styles they have learned.
Another major reason is that many Chinese masters of the old school, are somewhat disappointed with students who lack perseverance and patience ... and therefore teach "the majority" style "washing" leaving the traditional full only one dedicated student to engage with the School and the Arts.
When a teacher teaches a form, usually in the first stage teaches the moves. Then when the student does their part, training and study, movement produced by each student giving details, explanations, that were not relevant or practical to give the beginning.
Many exponents are simply learning the movements and details have been lost simply because they have asked the teacher to learn "another way" instead of seeking better understanding of what they have learned.
As I said, the reasons are many and too numerous to enumerate. The truth is that within the great Forest Marcial, there is still everything. From Schools "light" that abound in forms and styles to groups that maintain a full and complete art.
Here's an example, a Master of Cha-style Chuan. Cha Chuan (cha quan) is a style now Like much for your vistocidad, why are many practitioners who have learned one or two forms of the same. Well then come see this video, graphic style as practiced in a very traditional school, far from empty movements abound in practical methods that define the martial aspect.
enjoy it.
Today it is common to see Chinese martial arts exponents, as part of an alleged "front" for the fact of including in their practices, elements that are clearly old . Instead of moving toward something different, are actually returning to the roots, trying to regain the lost steps of an art that is much more complex and extensive than is shown today.
In this other video you can see the "other side": a form of style, nro 4, performed with all the tics and flavors of modern Wushu, in a purely performance oriented.

Such differences are not limited to schools of Wushu (which, moreover, do what they should do) but can be seen between schools that claim " traditional ", producing a distorted picture of what the true martial art Chinese. Far from claiming
"prosecute" this happens, the intention is to "clarify" the reality show of Chinese martial art, trying to avoid default, one ends up thinking that all he has the kung fu is what shows this second video.
Each must then decide what you want to learn kung fu, this being the kickoff to find then, with straight, a teacher according to your goals. Good practice
