WHAT DO YOU LEARN?
What do your learn ? Self-defense, increased strength, improved balance and flexibility - Our training program consists of traditional form practice (sets of exercises that are progressively more intricate), partner matching forms, and situation training, (learning how to defend yourself against punches, kicks, grabs, chokes, etc. )
Stress Management - You will learn how to manage stress and cultivate a higher level of personal energy through proper diet, Meditation and "Chi Gung" physical conditioning exercises!!!
Higher level of personal energy - The exercise method employed is termed "Chi Gung" (strength through expansion and contraction of all physical extremities, in coordination with one's breathing). "Chi Gung" exercises are often a microcosm of one element of a form movement. Through "Chi Gung" Kung Fu's strength and flexibility are enriched. They can take the form of a yoga movement or the structure of an aerobic exercise, but the breathing and the focus of "Chi Gung" always make it unique.
Increase vitality, health and longevity - You will learn how to manage certain physiological factors that will increase your vitality, maintain good health and increase longevity. Some of these factors are 1) muscle mass 2) strength 3) basal metabolic rate 4) body muscle to fat percentage 5) aerobic capacity and 6) bone density. Other factors you will manage with the assistance of your physician are 7) blood pressure 8) cholesterol (HDL) level and 9) blood-sugar tolerance. 1
Sense of inner peace - Meditation is the foundation of the White Crane style and is why the style is symbolic of longevity and tranquility and is considered one of the most elegant Kung Fu systems. It is a form of communication that permits students to develop a superb kinesthetic sense. Practitioners heighten the sensitivity of body and mind. Kung Fu develops knowledge of energy cultivation through proper diet and meditative-respiratory exercise. It is an art that explores philosophy, psychology, and self-awareness.
I love doing this to preserve the art. This is not my career. I have learned ways to improve self cultivation and health. Hopefully I can help others do the same.
