Kung Fu is a Journey
A story about two sisters named Journey and Destination.
Advice from Sifus Who Started Kung Fu as Kids
Since we now have quite a few black sashes who began their journeys young, I asked them for any words of wisdom they’d like to share.
The DO’s and DON’Ts of Open Kwoon Time
Open kwoon time is the 15 minutes of “free time” when the floor is open before class. Most classes don’t get open kwoon time, so it’s an awesome opportunity if you have it. We often tell you to “use your time wisely”, so here is what we mean about what you SHOULD and SHOULD NOT do during open kwoon time.
All about Belts
My white belt and my black sash both mean the start of a journey for me. What does your current belt mean to you?
Practice, Practice, Practice!
Remember that you have the choice to practice more or less than what’s written in your requirements for your level, but don’t forget that all actions have consequences.
Summer Training Ideas
Unlike some activities, Kung Fu doesn’t take the summer off. The warm months are actually a really awesome time to train! Aside from coming to your normal classes, here are some ideas on how you can practice your Kung Fu this summer.
The Five Animals’ Five Lessons on Bullying
In Kung Fu, we learn from the five animals (tiger, leopard, snake, crane, and dragon), and what they teach us can help not only in the kwoon, but at home or school too. Here are five lessons from the five animals to help you deal with bullying.
Goal Setting
While it’s important to look back at how far you’ve come, Kung Fu is also about looking forward to what’s ahead of you. Goal setting is an important skill to master, so here are some tips to get you started.
