Kung Fu Training

Training Philosophy

Our philosophy is to slowly build the body a little at a time, little bits of constant pressure allows one the ability to train daily and let the body adapt to the training. The goal is to develop useable muscle with more of a tendon and deep muscle strength. We focus on a well-rounded type of conditioning system that will teach the student different types of strength use for specific techniques. Cham-na training will build hand, forearm, core, and shoulder strength needed for grappling, leverages, and throws. Strength training will give the student high muscle endurance, tendon strength, ability to stay grounded, and overall body hardening. Cardio, speed, and balance training focuses on eye hand foot coordination, quickness and agility, as well as a strong heart and lungs.

Internal Vs. External

External type training is any type of training that you use the physical body to train say for strength, like a push up. Another example would be the beating or putting stress on a part of the body so the body adapts and hardens itself. This type of training relies on the physical force to create power. Most of all martial arts use this type of training in one way or another. Internal training is the development of internal energy through the use of breathing, and mental focus, and exercises designed to create power and force without the use of external methods. This type of training can create lots of power with less physical effort to release.
