After nearly 20 years in the industry, this is my uncensored, honest, professional opinion about Kung Fu, as well as many other Traditional Martial Arts (TMA), and how they compare to MMA (Boxing, Muay Thai, Wrestling, BJJ) in terms of self-defense effectiveness, and also for all the other possible benefits you could hope to gain from martial arts training.
This talk is the result of years of experience, deep reflection, and heartfelt passion.
Enjoy, and please let me know your thoughts in the comments below!
