Classes

What you can expect from Shaolin Wushu training
Each class begins with a vigorous warm up period followed by stretching. This is designed to increase your blood flow and heart rate and loosen your muscles for easier stretching. We then begin basic skills or drills training which is designed to get you familiar with many of the movements and kicks contained in the forms. Many martial art schools withhold some of the harder kicks and gymnastics for later in training, however, we start you on them immediately because some of these require much practice and repetition to be mastered correctly. These basic skills and drills also help the student build strength, flexibility, and coordination which will be needed to execute the forms correctly and precisely. We then begin forms and application training. Students are taught the fighting forms and their applications and given time to practice them. Just when you thought you were tired and class was about to be over, we end each class with a short period of strength training. Sounds very intimidating but it is also a lot of fun. You will leave each class feeling energized and with a sense of accomplishment knowing that you are improving your strength, stamina, flexibility, health, self defense skills, and you are improving your life in a dramatic way.
