In today’s world of chaos and bullies it’s becoming more important than ever that children and teens have the skills to defend themselves if necessary. The body is a very powerful weapon when used correctly and responsibly.
With moves like Monkey, Tiger, Dragon tail and Crane, the system rings to life! We are a family owned and operated school with core values such as confidence, self-discipline, and integrity. We teach a real martial art and we deliver real self-defense to our students. However, we do it in a high energy family atmosphere and in a safe place where kids can express themselves individually and have fun in the process.
In the adult beginning kung fu class, we teach an old Shaolin animal system that has a lineage that dates back thousands of years. Each animal technique incorporates the whole body. Strikes, wraps, kicks, takedowns is just a part of what you will learn in the adult class. We work the body and mind with focus drills and high cardio one on one phase fighting. We don’t focus on trophies or competitions, just real traditional self defense taught in a safe environment with certified instructors.
We also have 29 old temple forms, some dating back to when Mozart was composing music. Most that used to be their own system and all that came with their own theory and philosophy.
At Mindful Kung Fu we primarily work with the 4’ staff, cane and Chinese sword. We have two exciting staff patterns created by my teacher Grandmaster Don Baird. We also work with practical staff defense one on one as well.
We have a cane form as well. It moves the body through twists and turns, thrashing and dodging the opponents around you!
We also have a short Tai Chi sword form for balance, clarity and body awareness.
