Adult-All Classes
Beginner and sash level classes to meet your level of progress.
Classes organized by sash level ensure adult students are learning at their curriculum level along with their peers. Mixed classes enable all students to train together, introducing Novice II-level students to additional training opportunities, while ensuring that all students continue to strengthen the fundamentals of kung-fu. Novice Level students learn from Intermediate/Advanced students while enabling more advanced students to develop their leadership skills.
Adult Classes are grouped as follows:
- Novice I – Adult Beginner
- Mixed, in which all adult students are combined.
Sash level classes:
- Novice II (Red, Yellow, Orange Sash)
- Intermediate (Green)
- Advanced (Blue, Brown, Black Sash)
After attending 6 of the Adult Beginner Novice I classes, students are welcome to also attend any of the adult daytime classes.

Hygiene 101 for Martial Artists

Stretching
My last article identified that different types of flexibility are achieved through different types of stretching. This article provides examples of the different types of stretches and outlines how to use them to increase flexibility and range of motion.
Are you really focused?
We all know that being successful in Kung Fu is about more than just physical strength and agility — your mind plays a key part in your performance.
Flexibility
Flexibility is needed to perform everyday activities with relative ease…things like getting out of bed, lifting children, or sweeping the floor. Better flexibility improves athletic performance and can decrease risk of injuries by helping your joints move through their full range of motion and enabling your muscles to work effectively.
The Value of Self-Reflection
Self-reflection drives your “current” self to grow into your “ideal” self—the martial artist you aspire to be.
Training Through Injury
You need to train smarter, not harder sometimes, until you are physically able to continue. As we advance in physical age, our technique changes again as we can no longer move as fast, dip as low, or move as smooth. Sometimes, we have to train through injury.
