A popular debate amongst martial artist is which style is the best.  This is a debate that I stay out of, as there are so many variables such as for what situation, quality of instruction, skill level, etc.  Rather, I believe that most styles have merit and if a student has the discipline and perseverance to train long-term and become proficient in the "basics" than he/she will be better served then by chasing the latest and greatest short-term fad.  If you distill it all done,most styles have the same "basic" techniques - kicks, blocks and strikes.  If you become proficient in the basics, you will be well on your way to becoming a proficient martial artist.
