Kung Fu in the Martial Arts

One of the most sought after Martial Arts in the world is Kung Fu. It is considered one of the most beautiful and challenging of the martial arts. It is the challenge, the determination, and perseverance that is required to develop a “Kung Fu” body, with trained reflexes and capable of real skill that makes it such an elite martial art.

At the Blue Dragon School, Kung Fu is all we teach.  By exclusively focusing on the rare Kung Fu style of Ba Gua Zhang (also known as Pa Kua Chang), students have the opportunity to truly experience, explore and master their art. Why not come in and take a no obligation, no charge Trial Class and experience it for yourself?

The Oldest "Mixed Martial Arts" Style, Kung Fu

"Mixed martial arts" may be a term that has gained a lot of popularity recently but students of Kung Fu have been practicing Mixed Martial Arts for thousands of years. Punching, blocking, kicking, long range, close range, grappling, joint locking, and throwing, are all included in the Ba Gua Zhang Kung Fu classes that we teach.

What separates Ba Gua Zhang from other popular martial arts such as:

Karate - Tae Kwon Do - Aikido - Jujitsu - Judo - Kung Fu

While the main components of these very different Asian martial arts styles & disciplines are all included when training in the Ch'iang Shan Ba Gua Zhang style of Kung Fu, there are also distinct differences.

Ba Gua Zhang (Pa Kua Chang) skillfully integrates health and self defense making it one of the most complete and comprehensive martial disciplines practiced today.

It is not an art that is based on memorizing countless "techniques." In our adult martial arts classes students learn how to apply real-world principles that teach how to think, emphasizing how to evade and how to avoid a potentially dangerous situation. With Ba Gua Zhang you will discover the most effective and efficient self-defense methods that work for your body. What works for one person will not necessarily work for someone else.

Ba Gua Zhang (Pa Kua Chang) is an internal style of the Chinese Martial Arts renowned for its:

This incredibly well balanced system gives the practitioner all that they need in terms of superior health and practical self defense. Often referred to as the “smart martial art”, Ch'iang Shan Ba Gua Zhang is equally suited to men and women as it does not rely not physical strength or size for it’s effectiveness.

Kung Fu Classes at the Blue Dragon School

We offer a curriculum that is deeply rooted in tradition. Through diligent training and repetitive drills, students in our martial arts classes develop a body that is supple, strong and flexible. The body becomes capable of smooth, relaxed and continuous movement. The student learns to use the body in a unified manner so that it is fully connected. When ready, more complex and detailed movements are introduced. Eventually, enough skill is attained to create great power even through small body articulations.

In addition to physical body conditioning and the teaching of forms and applications, meditation is an integral part of the training. We firmly believe that “real martial arts” trains the body and the mind.

Real Skills for Real Life

Personal growth and development add value to the practice that simply put, is priceless. It is when the student develops the ability to take the lessons they learned inside the dojang (dojo), and begins to apply it to their everyday life, that the transformation into a true martial artist really begins.

Students can learn through their practice how to respond to many of life’s challenges. Adversity is a part of life and those who learn to handle it will always be better off than those who do not.

The translation of the Chinese words, "Kung Fu" is
"achievement through effort over time."
Put in the time and the effort... and the rest just takes care of itself.
