Cant decide please help.?

Question

Alright ive been looking at some videos and i have some choices im not sure if i want to do kung fu or tkd can someone tell me the pros and cons of them.

Answer 1

TKD:

Pros- Good for self defense, very powerful, good for you, fun.

Cons- Useless on the ground, some styles aren't good for short range fighting, lots of McDojos, most schools only train for sport and competition.

Kung Fu:

Pros-Smooth flowing movements, looks cool, great exercise.

Cons: Not practical for self defense, many McDojos, hard to find a school that teaches real Kung Fu.

Answer 2

Cons with TKD:

Hard to find a legitimate place. At the first ssite of a black belt that is younger than 12, Mcdojo.

Answer 3

try both.

i personally like kung fu because its very flowing. others like TKD you have to find out urself which one u like.

Answer 4

try each for a mounth i no a bit on the arts though

tkd is good  for striking but there is no real takedown or takedown defence training and the too much kicking is not as practical as wen the at was mad eand like gong fu there are many different forms so if u go here u may not be able to switch schools if neccesary but i take jeet kune do and jun fan gong fu right now and ill say it is better thamn tkd in my oppinion

Answer 5

Start with one style and try it for a month.
