What is the difference between Kung Fu and Tai Chi?
Chinese martial arts can be divided into two different divisions; internal and external.Each one tries to arrive at the same destination, but they get there by different routes. External Kung Fu uses physical strength and speed. Internal Kung Fu (Tai Chi) uses balance, awareness, sensitivity, and an opponent's force against them.
Like Yin and Yang
The theory of yin and yang states that one force gradually becomes it's opposite. It's the same with internal and external kung fu. At its highest levels internal kung looks like external and vice versa.
So which one should you take?
