Hey everyone.
Recently I've found a Kung Fu school. They teach Choy Lay Fut (Hung Sing) and Wing Chun. Both instructors are into the traditional aspect, but also compete in combat sports (San Shou and Light Continuous) Besides the excellent teaching, both styles interest me very much. And I'm having a hard time choosing. I'll be taking free classes of both. (already had one of Wing Chun which was fantastic)
I think of it like this. Writing both pros and cons of each style.
Wing Chun:
Pros: Great infighting, directness, simplicity, efficiant, great linear attack, will probably compliment my HKD well
Cons: Lacks some power, almost no kicks
Choy Lay Fut:
Pros: Powerful, angular, a mix of hand strikes, feet strikes, and throws, better for San Shou (something I would like to compete in)
Cons: Infighting is lacking, while great angle attacks not alot of linear ones
Both styles are great.
I was wondering if someone could guide me into which one. Or at least give your opinions on each style.
