Kung fu means, essentially, "hard work" or "great skill." It is the common name of an ancient Chinese style of martial arts dating back a thousand years or more. It's most famously associated with the Shaolin Temple, where it was taught beginning in the sixth century AD. It spread to the west with Chinese immigration in the 1800s, but did not become popular among westerners until the mid-1900s. There are hundreds of kung fu variants and styles, many based on the movements of animals (Crane, Dragon, Leopard, Mantis, Monkey, Snake, and Tiger, to name some). A kung fu teacher is called a sifu and the practice hall is called a kwoon.
