Agile and Hung Gar

Hung Gar, philosophy, agile…just ways of life, according to Doug Bromley here..

Agile Development = 5 Animal Form Kung Fu = Buddhism
An attempt to break from rigidity but instead merely adds a number of extra tools to its box and attempts to become more agile yet still sticks to its general tennets religiously preaching such ideas as TDD, prototyping, etc.

I won’t claim that I know enough about Buddhism to say this is true, but if I had to pick a religion to compare to Agile, I guess that would be it. But what do I know?

Hung Gar I did practice a few years ago, and my forearms still hurt when I think about it.

I guess Hung Gar is agile like drum stick spinology is agile. Which btw, is another thing I wish I were good at.
