Hung Gar Kung Fu
Hung-Gar Kung-Fu is one the original branches of martial arts that were developed in a Chinese monastery based on techniques taught to the monks through Bodhidharma, a traveling monk of north India.
Our classes follow the traditional system which moves a student at his/her own pace- allowing anyone to begin at any point in one's life.
Inspired by the energy and movements of the tiger and the graceful crane, it is characterized by low stances with snappy strikes and smooth flowing movements. It provides a path towards developing internal strength, mental discipline, strong muscle, positive attitude, self confidence, and healthy joints. Students work on basic exercises until a foundation is laid to delve into the various hand and weapons forms.
I put together a list of why I believe Hung Gar is such a healthy form of exercise and movement based on my 35 years of personal experience. Over a decade in the field of bodywork has helped me to have a better understanding of common afflictions and weaknesses of the modern western body.
Low stances form the foundation of practice, strengthening underutilized muscles of the west; adductors, psoas, glutes, and intrinsic muscles of the lower legs.
