 | | | This class consists of authentic modern & traditional Wushu training. Wushu, also known as kung-fu or chinese martial arts, is one of the most demanding martial arts and has found a place in current mainstream movies. Wushu is a high cardio workout with extreme emphasis on stretching & body conditioning. Training is compared to gymnastics as sequences of basic skills & combos are taught as with various techniques in aerial & ground movements. International competition routines (govern by the IWuF) are also practiced including empty-hand & weapon-play often performed individually. Wushu remains to be identified as the most visually graceful yet powerful martial art for all ages. |
|
 | | | This class teaches direct, practical martial art applications in real-world and competition. Practiced by both men and women, San Shou is soley a hand-to-hand style strengthing the body and coordinate key movements which complements greatly with contemporary wushu training. Students learn a variety of offensive, defensive technqiues with much emphasis in bracing, striking, dodging, blocking, sweeping, falling, throwing, counter-defensive/offensive movements also pressure points and joint-locking are detailed. Protective gearing is worn when practicing though the San Shou competition system of fighting where official rules and regulations will be instructed. |
|
 | | | A very popular class practiced by both young and old, Tai Chi is considered to be an intergal style of Wushu. Translated, Tai Chi literaly means "Ultimate Fist" which is properly named for its superior uses and benefits. Tai Chi is founded on balancing energy or life-force by feeding or directing it through one's system. Practitioners may also find that Tai Chi is a fighting style, powerfull as it is graceful. It is said that a practitioner can obtain a level where one can predict and control an opponent's movement by merging engergies or 'chi'. This class helps students develop and enhance that ability as well teaches the applications in terms of combat and in health. |
|
 | | | Considered a very traditional art form in China, Lion dancing & Dragon dancing ultimately brings excitment and good luck!

A multitude of techniques will be taught such as Lion & Dragon techinques, Dancing on 12 foot poles, Druming & other percussion, International competition routines and more! |
|
 | | | Qi Gong is the skill of attracting vital energy.
