Reached a plateau in martial arts as I have? American Fighting Arts offers plenty of expansion. Fluid motions of Shaolin Kuntao offers a welcome respite from hard styles such as TaeKwonDo & TangSooDo. Although cyclic these movements are fast, powerful and highly effective. Shaolin Kuntao is more a martial art than sport. The techniques are street practical, ulike other more sport oriented arts. The synergy between Shaolin Kuntao's forms and their self defense techniques are unparalleled. I have been hard pressed to create the image of a fighting scenario for TKD and TSD forms. Shaolin Kuntao forms are integrated self defense sequences and offer greater potential for imagining actual combat scenarios while performing the form. This is true for beginning as well as advanced forms. Refinement of the form refines self defense skills. The animal forms also provide a mindset or attitude over how the form is executed.

I have been involved with martial arts for almost 17 years. Six of those years have been spent at A.F.A. If close range personal self defense is what you are looking for, then you need to attend classes at A.F.A. No messing around; this stuff is direct and to the point. Definitely not for the light at heart. Classes are small, the instruction is superb, and this particular style, Shaolin Kuntao, is not found on every corner, in every town, in America. In fact, if you are lucky enough to run across a Kuntao instructor, stick with them. Kuntao is a very progressive art that is finally gaining in popularity; the respect for Kuntao has always been there. Check it out. You will not be disappointed!
Pros: Style hard to find., Instruction superb., Application is superb
Cons: 20 miles to train!
