Have you ever wanted to try Kung Fu or a martial art? Have you ever wanted to learn how to manage dangerous people and and be calmer in an aggressive situation? Would you also like to know how to do this without you needing to be aggressive, violence or even overly strong or big? Shaolin Kung Fu is not a violent style, but it teaches you to manage Violent People and Aggressive situations. But it also does much more. Hi, I am Sijo Robert Z and I have been training Martial Art since 1962; in this time i have learned one important truth;
If you know Kung Fu, you will probably never need it.
Kung Fu is a beautiful style developed by Monks of the Shaolin Temple in Central China. Originally a Yoga style Breathing, Meditation, Stretching, Fitness and Health exercise, it needed to adapt to also be functional for Self Defense.
Buddhist Monks are averse to violence and aggression but still needed to protect themselves. It was then, much as it is today, the Police or equivalent could not be everywhere and could only do something about attacks after they have occurred. Then too, aggressive and violent house invasions were also common, even to the Shaolin Temple!
Although needing some 500 years, they developed the Shaolin 5 Animal Style of Kung Fu. This allowed the style of defense to be adapted to the needs of the individual, rather than requiring each person to be the same and just smash someone in the face as their main defense. With the Shaolin 5 Animal Style, you choose how you wish to manage an aggressive confrontation.
That is the key in Shaolin 5 Animal Kung Fu, Situation Management, not confrontation.
You can choose to defend yourself physically. Shaolin 5 Animal Kung Fu is effective, no matter your body size, weight, age, coordination or physical limitations. Shaolin 5 Animal Kung Fu allows you to use what you physically have (Tiger) . It could be strength, speed or agility. It augments this with the skill of Shaolin Kung Fu techniques and movements.
Conversely, you may be a person who prefers to manage a confrontation with your mental ability (Panther) . Shaolin Kung Fu teaches about Redirection, Distraction, Calming techniques (for both you and your attacker), Strategies, Tactics, and Negotiation skills. All which aim to Manage a Situation before it may lead to violence.
Mayhap you are a person who prefers to avoid any form of confrontation and be an inactive, reactive person (Crane) when confronted by an aggressive of violent circumstance. Here too, Shaolin Kung Fu teaches the skills to allow you, to enable your aggressor to defeat themselves. With a combination of physical and mental techniques, you can learn how to not lose in a confrontation; how to 'allow' the attacker to make the mistakes themselves without much input from you. Not losing is better than not winning.
Finally, you may be the type of person who wishes to extricate themselves from a violent confrontation at the earliest possible moment (Snake) . Shaolin 5 Animal Kung Fu allows you to do this too, to recognize when the time is right for this to occur; to read the attacker, to have the skill to avoid being punched, kicked or grabbed, to know when you can safely retreat, without opening yourself to an attack from behind. Turning your back on an aggressive situation has shown itself to be deadly through the spate of recent Coward punches.
You will not learn all this in six months but you do not need to. Whilst you are developing these skills, you are also exercising, stretching, becoming fit, healthy and well. You will never be bored with the variety of techniques, skills, tactics, and strategies that Shaolin 5 Animal Kung Fu has and teaches!
Not sure if this is right for you? No problem, come in to our center in Mordialloc on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday at 6 pm and try out three free sessions of Shaolin 5 Animal Kung Fu . Alternatively, we have Saturdays Traditional Chinese Weaponry training and Exercise session starting at 10.30 am. This is also suited for anyone from the age of 11 to what-ever.
