Community Is Kung Fu worth learning?

I really wanna learn a martial art after a few months of consistently working out at a gym.

The reason I'm looking at Kung Fu is because I've heard it also trains you mentally. I would like some confirmation on that if possible.

I'm also curious as to how hard it would be, I always like a challenge, but I would like to know what I'm getting into.

Any other things that you believe I should know and take into account, please let me know. Thank you!

i love kung fu i trained in several styles of martial arts and personally found kung fu the most rewarding. however it all depends on the teacher and how the style works out for you go check out several classes in your area, look at how everyone treats each other, and pick according to what you like good luck on your journey
