Neko_Cat Posted August 28, 2001 Posted August 28, 2001 In Kung Fu, fighting styles are based on animals. I identify with the Tiger Fighting style, which represents power and aggression. What style do you identify with? There is one for practically every type of animal. Monkey, Panther, Dragon, Crane, Praying Mantis, and the list goes on and on. Monkey fighting style sometimes involves a staff, and there is even a branch of it called "Drunken Monkey". Sometimes there is a sword used to demonstrate the movements of the Dragon. What's your fav fighting style?:)
conpiracymonki Posted August 28, 2001 Posted August 28, 2001 [b]I don't do Kung Fu,...but if I did, I'd go with Speed, Agression, and Brute Strength. Is there any animal like that?[/b]
Transtic Nerve Posted August 28, 2001 Posted August 28, 2001 Obviously Dragon cause I love using the sword.... But whatever animal is associated with Tae Kwon Do.... i really like Tae Kwon Do....
Neko_Cat Posted August 28, 2001 Author Posted August 28, 2001 Well, power and agression would be the Tiger, but I don't really know about speed. Snake style involves quick movements and alot of dodgeing and striking, so I guess maybe that would do for speed.
Neko_Cat Posted August 28, 2001 Author Posted August 28, 2001 Would you believe there is a duck fighting style? weird huh:D
Guest Akito Posted August 28, 2001 Posted August 28, 2001 Uhh, how about one that weakens the mental stability of a fighter before they fight so that? That would be me, hehe
Neko_Cat Posted August 28, 2001 Author Posted August 28, 2001 Dragon fighting style is amazing. Elegence, grace, power, it's everything all in one.

[/B][/QUOTE] [b]er,..that would be me then,...cept for the elegance bit, hehe :D, coz grace is almost speed but in a polite and slower way,..so yeh,..dragon then[/b]

It only looks silly, so ppl think monkey fighting style isn't very good, but it fools you. In fact, a old legend about the famed Monkey King who practiced monkey fighting style inspired Akira Toriyama to create Gokou from Dragonball.
Neko_Cat Posted August 28, 2001 Author Posted August 28, 2001 The crane fighting style is another one that can sometimes distract or fool opponents.

Neko_Cat Posted August 28, 2001 Author Posted August 28, 2001 The power pole represents the staff used by the Monkey King. I think the Kintoun was also part of the legend. Gokou used Monkey style when he was little, but I don't think he does anymore. I wonder what happened to the power pole?
Neko_Cat Posted August 28, 2001 Author Posted August 28, 2001 Muten Roshi the turtle hermit trains him, I wonder if they learned turtle style.....?
*Dj-Joe* Posted August 28, 2001 Posted August 28, 2001 i would probably go with the crane style,quiet,calm,patient quick and painful.I could really mess someone up with that lol! painful i need a lemonade. -JoE
