OUR PROGRAMS
WHAT WE TEACH
TRADITIONAL WUSHU
Originating in ancient China, traditional wushu (literally 'martial arts' and often referred to as kung fu in the west) was created from the need for self-defense and survival, as well as an art of war.
Emphasizing self-defense at its core, practitioners combine precise strikes, limb trapping, and take-downs with defensive tactics. Rooted in ancient tradition but adapted for contemporary needs, Traditional Wushu equips individuals with the skills to protect themselves while embodying the grace and strength immortalized in popular media.
SANDA & JUJITSU
Sanda, also known as Chinese kickboxing, combines traditional Chinese martial arts techniques with modern combat strategies. Practitioners train in both striking and wrestling, learning to deliver powerful punches and kicks while also mastering throws, sweeps, and takedowns. Whether you're looking to improve your fitness, learn self-defense, or compete, Sanda offers a challenging and rewarding experience for practitioners of all levels.
Our Sanda class includes instruction on no-gi Jujitsu throwing techniques, refining students' ability to unbalance and control opponents without relying on traditional martial arts attire.
WEAPON FIGHTING
We draw from both Historical European Weapon Fighting and Traditional Chinese Martial Arts Weapon Fighting to train students in the use of traditional weapons as instruments of fighting, modern self-defense and sport fencing. Class focuses on Jian (straight sword), Dao (single edged saber), Qiang (Spear), Gùn (Staff) and short stick.
*All classes geared towards teens and adults. Youth under the age of 13 admitted on a case by case basis.
