I posted the same thing on the chineese martial arts forum but I would really like to get both opinions from people who are into korean arts and who are into chineese arts just incase of you fellas thinking why am I posting the same thing twice
**********************************************************
I was planning on taking wing chun for it's realistic self defense teq but I didn't really like is that they only kick below the waist and I always thought it would be good to even know how to kick above the wast but what I really like is it's reflexes on the self defense and their rapid punches

As for tang soo do they say it's good for self defense and again I would like to work on my legs but they say the kicks that are practiced in TSD aren't useful when it comes to a real situation when you cant avoid a street fight and their punches isn't very good either but some say different

but on the bottom line I would like to work on my self defense especially. but I think it would be good to learn offense as well

what do you fellas think I'll be better off with?
