I'd say its more traditional... its hard to describe becuase a lot is changed and modified pretty consitently. It traces back to lineage that of Cheng Man Ching.. sp is horrible im sure.. but my instructor learned yang style tai chi, qi gong, and shaolin kungfu, and it was based off of a grandmaster in Chicago, who learned from cheng man ching
But my instructor implented all of his training from other arts as well as what kungfu and tai chi he has learned. So in a sense its become a mixed martial art, but not the one most typically think of. Its not extremely flashy or full of many high kicks, so its not wushu. Right now we are learning xingyi, and he is learning pre-heaven ( fajing release). So we learn alot, adapt alot.. so its kind of hard to say what it truely is.
