WHEN I WAS IN MY EARLY TEENS, I WAS A 42ND STREET KUNG FU

MOVIE BEAST AND ENJOYED EVERY MOMENT.

I ALSO WAS LIVING IN THE BOOGIE DOWN BRONX WHERE I WAS BLESSED TO TRAIN WITH A CREW OF REAL AUTHENTIC STREET BOXERS ("52 -BLOCKS AS IT CALLED TODAY")

WHO ALSO WERE "GREATLY SEASONED MARTIAL ARTISTS OF MANY DISCIPLINES".

WHEN I SAY "SEASONED", I MEAN THESE "GENTLEMAN WARRIORS" KNEW HOW TO APPLY

THEY TRAINED IN REAL-TIME DEFEATING OPPONENTS GRACEFULLY IN EVERY CONFRONTATION USING BOTH STREET BOXING AND MARTIAL ARTS DISCIPLINES THEY MERGED THESE SKILLS. (" I SAW FIRST HAND". "WE HAD NO CELL PHONES TO RECORD THESE SWEET SCIENCE MOMENTS", YET "IT WAS AMAZING TO SEE THEM UTILIZE THEIR HANDS AND FEET SKILLS TO RELEASE BUTT WHIPPINGS TO THOSE WHO PROVOKED THEM FOR FREE".)

THE MORE I TRAINED, THE MORE I CONTINUED TO GET ENLIGHTENED CONSISTENTLY GAINING MUCH FROM THEIR IN-YOUR-FACE STRAIGHT-UP, ALL-OUT DAILY SPARING, 1-ON-1, AND SOMETIMES FOUR-ON-ONE. ( "WE CALLED IT CORNERS". "THE ONE LEFT IN THE CENTER GET ATTACKED." THIS WAS GREAT PREP. WORK FOR REAL-TIME MULTIPLE ATTACK DEFENSIVE TRAINING").

DRUNKEN FIST IS A CONCEPT OF MANY MARTIAL ARTS COMBINING THEIR BEST DEVASTATING STRIKES TO BE DELIVERED AT ANY ANGLE UTILIZING WELL-TRAINED FOOTWORK THAT SEEMS OFF-BALANCE TO YOUR OPPONENT YET, SEEKING OPEN TARGETS TO ATTACK WITH ALL YOUR ENERGY IN AND RECOVER IN A CALM MANNER LEAVING AN OPPONENT LOST AND CONFUSED.

HERE BELOW IS ONE RESPECTFUL REPRESENTATION

OF

DRUNKARD KUNG FU

EXPRESSED IN FULL FORM BY

DR. LEUNG TING.

HERE IS MY OUT- THE BOX -POETRY

REPRESENTATION

FOR SUCH A GRACEFUL

MARTIAL ART.

THE DRUNKEN FIST

IS A SELF DISCIPLINED ART

THAT REQUIRES DAILY PRACTICE

TO OBTAIN

BODY MOBILITY,

A WARRIOR SPIRIT, AND A WELL ALIGNED

CALM UNDER PRESSURE

STATE OF MIND,

THESE THREE FLUIDITY

CONCEPTS YOU WILL NEVER FIND

IN ANY LIQUOR BOTTLE OR BARREL OF SWEET PREMIUM WINE!
