What is a Kung Fu Master?

• Master
  1. a person eminently skilled in something, as an occupation, art, or science:the great masters of the Impressionist period.
  2. a person with the ability or power to use or control something: a master of six languages; to be master of one’s fate.
• Kung Fu
  1. Work Skill – A high level of skill achieved through hard work
  2. Often used to refer to Chinese martial arts
• Martial
  1. inclined or disposed to war; warlike
  2. of, suitable for, or associated with war or the armed forces
  3. characteristic of or befitting a warrior
• Artist

So a Martial Artist is someone who is highly skilled at war or fighting and a Kung Fu Master is an exceptionally skilled Martial Artist.
