The style of Kung Fu that I am studying currently is Northern Shaolin Praying Mantis.  It is defined by strong, quick, bursting movements and rapid hand strikes.

It's different from the stuff I've done previously and I find myself unlearning techniques from my past in order to progress.  The good news is that I can feel my speed increasing almost daily.  My flexibility is getting better too.  The bad news is that I am reminded almost daily how much I need to improve my physical condition if I'm going to progress even further.

I am a good fighter right now, but not a competent martial artist.  That will come in time.
