In what way did I berate him.I just thought it was very pompous of you to berate Jason Delucia like that.
1. There is no fighting system called the Five Animal Kung Fu
2. Wikipedia states that he "practiced the Five Animal Styles of Kung Fu" once again this isn't a fighting system, it's a description or classification of a technique, based on how the technique moves. This means that different fighting systems can have these same characteristics even if it's not kung fu.
3. The only actual fighting systems that he is said to have taken is, Taekwondo, Aikido, Gracie Jiu Jitsu. None of those 3 fighting systems that I named are Kung Fu fighting systems.
4. When you watch his matches you can see more Taikwondo and Gracie Jiu Jitsu techniques than anything else.
5. Being that it doesn't seem that he actually took a kung fu fighting system, I would doubt that he could do a form.
6. Strait from his own website "On the DVD, Jason answers these questions and more:
...Being a traditional Gung Fu Stylist what is your opinion on the modern teachings of Bruce Lee and Jeet Kune Do ? Now tell me what is the Traditional Kung Fu system that he studied. He names the other systems but doesn't name the which Kung Fu system he studied? This is the case with every reference of Kung Fu and Delucia no matter where you search.
I'm not the only one who does a Chinese Martial arts that has also pick up on these things.
I found it entertaining that another Jow Ga student pointed out some of these same things in 2004

There are other posts from other martial artist asking the same question. "what kung fu fighting system did Jason Delucia study?"
Besides there is no proof or evidence, or assumption that Jason ever did forms.
