Hung Ga and Children
Hey, this is a question that doesn't help me much as i'm just beginning my own studies but I would like to know anyway.
What would you say the minimum age should be for training in hung gar?
What limitations should be in place for young people should they practice body conditioning at such a young age?
Is there any training materials specifically designed for kids? like little ninja's etc.
the reason I ask is my son has been imitating me, around the house, we "play" 5 animal fists which to him is a tickling game,
also we do earthbending, (playfighting in horse stance)
has anyone thaught of using the earthbending thing to encourage kids to learn hung gar? earthbending is from "Avatar: the last airbender"
a popular kids program that uses traditional kung fu forms
to "bend" or manipulate the elements, earthbending uses hung gar.
Just a thought
