What is Wu Shu?
The term “wushu” meaning 'martial arts' goes back as far as the Liang Dynasty (502-557) Traditional Chinese schools of martial arts, such as the famed Southern Shaolin monastery, often dealt with the study of martial arts not just as a means of self-defense or mental training, but as a system of ethics.
Unfortunately, the word "Wushu" has been attached to a modern sport that has its origins in tradition, but has become increasingly showy and flashy, with less emphasis on technique and mental discipline, and more on showmanship and "style".
Most competitions culminate in tightly-choreographed routines, complete with brightly colored costumes, and flourishes that are not only completely useless as far as real combat is concerned, but also offer a skilled martial artist any number of openings to exploit.
For example, you won't be learning to do this:

“You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can flow and it can crash. Be water my friend.” Sifu "Bruce" Lee Jun-fan
