IF learning kung fu for the self defense then in this modern day its probably a waste of time. If your learning it for mastery of the mind, disipline, strength just all round well being then this sport will help you in life which im sure frau learns this sport for that reason.
Other than that I can't see what is the point people wanting to learn if for self defense when all you need is a gun or your trusty baseball bat. The Indiana Jones scene comes to mind where the arab sword weilding geek goes all nuts so indiana pulls out his gun and shoots him dead. No sword weilding stick fighting or round house kick is faster than a speeding bullet. Besides crims these days would shoot you dead before you got within 20feet of them.
thou there is one exception. Chuck Norris would probably catch the bullet & throw it back killing the bad guy instantly!
