Can anybody tell me what types of Kung Fu Jacki Chan has practiced?

Question

I am thinking about starting kung fu classes and am aware that with his kung fu he also went to a chinese drama school - I am interested more so in chinese kung fu than any other kung fu.

Answer 1

He does drunken style, hence his great centre of balance

Answer 2

i dont remember what styles he has trained.. but kung fu comes from china and there are many different styles of kung fu. kung fu is a general name of chinese martial arts.

so you shoud check your nearest kung fu school and see what they have to offer.

Answer 3

He didn't learn traditional Kung Fu, he learned stunt kung fu from a film school

Answer 4

Kung Fu is chinese and only chinese...learn to use google...

Answer 5

I remember seeing an interview with him and he said one of the styles he studied was Pak Mei (aka Bak Mei).

Answer 6

All Kung Fu came from China.  He has done several different types over his lifetime, but the bulk of what he knows is due to the Drama school that he went to.   It is way more general than regular Kung Fu.  This is because in the School, they often portrayed different styles for different plays.  In fact, most of the modern well known choreographers (with names Yuen) are from the same school.

Your best bet in the USA is just to find a good quality Kung Fu school and get busy.

Answer 7

He started chinese opera/drama when he was young. these involves a lot of hard acrobatic trainings. that is why most of his movies has a lot of acrobatic moves. He later became a stunt man, and he is very good at imitating different styles. Can he really fight at a martial artist level? I don't think so. He has not done any formal training in fighting. Good actor, and a very good acrobat but that is about it.

Answer 8

Isn't it wushu?
