This video says these students are performing at Chicago Chinatown fair. The best place to learn Lama Kung Fu or to learn martial arts in Chicago is from Grand Master Wai Lun Choi of Chicago's Chinatown.

@naumutroi We know Wai lun Choi. he no longer teaches in chicagos chinatown. BTW, I saw your other comment before you erased it. In kung fu you should talk with your hands not your mouth. I don't think your sifu would approve of your insulting remarks

People do not realize that the historical cultural Tibetan is much larger than present Tibet itself. Within China itself traditional areas like most of Qinghai, most of W. Sichuan, SW Gansu, Small pockets of Xinjiang have been culturally Tibetan for centuries. For example there's the famous Labrang monastery in either Gansu or Qinghai and I would bet anything that the Lion's Roar(Lama Pai KF) tradition may have started in these areas rather than Tibet itself.

I agree

[blackarawak83]

Martial art have been practiced all over Asia for thousands of years(Tibet included). China however is the country that has had an everlasting influence (from 600BCE to about 1600AD) . This is a 2000 plus influence from writing, religion, culture and martial arts too. As far Tibetan Kung Fu concerned, it could be anything but a Chinese reference of a particular branch of KF once practiced by Lamas or Tibetan people in and around the Tibetan areas within China.

I agree again

nice!

[lostlohan]

wow that is my favorite form.

[naumutroi]

@K3hungsing yes i agree completely. there are many ways of expressing the same thing, many paths. if everyone was the same how boring it would be. i know and understand all of this you have said. Even after being in the martial arts for so many years sometimes in my zeal i forget some things such as the principle of the empty tea cup and i sometimes have too much "chon" for my own good..

[naumutroi]

@K3hungsing my apologies for my disrespect and i should not have been so rude. That is why i removed the original comment after thinking upon what i wrote.

[K3hungsing]

@naumutroi There are always differences in how techniques are executed between different lineages/schools and even person to person. Different does not equate wrong as long as the practitioner has a reasonable and scientific explination of why those techniques are executed in said manner

it was a vast nomadic region with a meager population density after all

bare handed martial arts didn't take off in tibet because people were allowed to carry weapons around
