Makes sense to me...well, figuratively. I don't speak either language...but...you get the picture. Thanks! _________________ American Kenpo Karate- First Degree Black Belt

This is correct. You can wear shorts and a t shirt, anything. _________________ Seek not and you will find. -Lao Tsu |

Ya... I wear Work-out pants and a T-Shirt. Dress isn't important to me, unless it's a demo or something of the sort. _________________ "One of the lessons of history is that nothing is often a good thing to do and always a clever thing to say."

Thanks all for your posts...and I guess we've pretty much come to a concensus that Xunlian Fu is...incorrect.  _________________ American Kenpo Karate- First Degree Black Belt

I never said that it was incorrect, merely that I did not understand what he was trying to say. _________________ what do i know, i'm an idiot. |

Hi!!
I apologize for the misunder standing, I wrote Xulian Fu that means tranning, that was a bad copy and paste sorry. what I wanted to say was Tongsan = Uniform.

| AHH makes sense. Yeah in our school pretty much everyone has a uniform but most peps just wear the uniform pants because it doesnt hamper your movement at all and just a teeshirt. Unless we are testing and then we wear full uniform. |

BUT!!! It looks cool.... And thats the important thing right? That everyone thinks we look cool?
(kidding)
I wouldn't like training in shorts or a t-shirt though...I don't know why, I guess it's a karate background hampering me, I always liked the way the uniform snaps when you do a technique. Plus I hate seeing what my legs look like when I kick. |
