Self-Defense
Let’s have a look at the fourth pillar of our curriculum, self-defense.
Technique
In many ways Technique is the most fundamental component of what we teach at WKFA.
Sparring
Sparring is an important part of your child’s Kung Fu journey and will help them develop skill, endurance and confidence.
Forms
Forms help the student understand both offensive and defensive Kung Fu techniques and how to string them together into a series of fluid movements.
What a Typical Kung-Fu Class Looks Like
With current circumstances limiting options for you to see your kids in action, here is an outline of what a typical kung-fu class experience looks like with a bit of background and vocabulary to help you ask your children the right questions.
Change
As we deal with change, Kung Fu provides us with ‘rocks’ that remain constant.
Let’s Get Moving
Thoughts on ways to get our kids out of their chairs and away from the screen for a bit.
In It For the Long Haul
Ultimately, every child will go through their own personal Kung Fu journey. All of them will carry with them lasting benefits of their training.
With Gratitude
Thank you, parents, for your dedication and perseverance in 2020!
Watch for the Ego Trap: Part I
Let’s explore the ‘Ego Trap,’ a crushing motivational dilemma that happens whenever expectations get too high.
Practice! Practice! Practice!
It is always easier for instructors to make corrections if a child has been practicing something incorrectly than it is to re-teach techniques forgotten because they did not practice.
Become the Teacher
How you can view our present circumstances as an opportunity to take back your kids.

Help Us Help Your Kids Stay Energized
Enthusiasm can be such a fleeting thing for everyone, and no less so for our kids.
What Are We Teaching Your Kids?
We hope our students work through their journey with us developing skills that will take them far in life, and the confidence, discipline and control to become anything they wish to be.
Reviewing the Rules
Many of the school rules not only apply to WKFA students but to visitors and parents/guardians as well.
Injuries and Kung Fu
Bumps, bruises and injuries are part of the human experience, and we all get them now and then. Fortunately, in Kung Fu, they’re usually just a temporary nuisance.
