Our traditional Shaolin Hung Ga Kung Fu programs for children and adults emphasize the "external" martial arts. Hung Ga (also known as Hung Gar or Hung Kuen) is a southern style of Chinese Kung Fu, well known for its ability to create a healthy balance in body and mind in addition to practical self-defense. The curriculum emphasizes fundamental techniques, with emphasis on real world applications. Advanced students train in forms and fighting with classical weaponry. Children can begin learning as early as age 5 - the discipline and training involved provide an excellent foundation for physical fitness, growing confidence and emotional development. Research shows that individual sports like Kung Fu are also excellent therapy for ADHD children. The benefits of training naturally overflow into virtually every other aspect of life.
