(Ages 6 and up).
NOT WHAT YOU THINK!
MOST STYLES ARE SPORT! GRAPPLING GROUND SPORTS, TO YOUR STRIP-MALL SCHOOLS WITH QUESTIONABLE NAMES, GOALS, AND OTHER RED FLAGS (McDOJOS).
MASTER PLEWES HAS LIVED, VISITED AND TRAINED IN ASIA FOR 22 YEARS. (Japan, Taiwan, China, Hong Kong, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia).
ADDITIONALLY, MOST STYLES MAKE “YOU”CONFORM, THEREFORE MAKING IT A YOUNG AND HEALTHY PERSON SPORT.
THIS IS NOT A SPORT OR GROUND GRAPPLING SPORT-STYLE, LIKE THE CURRENTLY POPULAR BRAZILIAN JIUJITSU.
THE REAL WORLD OF FIGHTING IS OFTEN HARD FLOORS, CONCRETE, ASPHALT AND GLASS RIDDLED ALLEYS. THEREFORE WE ACTUALLY AVOID THE GROUND AND REACT VERY SERIOUSLY IF ON THE GROUND.
WE FOCUS ON THE APPROPRIATE RESPONSES.
FROM AVOIDING, ESCAPING, CONTROLLING AND SURVIVING. PRAGMATIC AND PROVEN.
DEVELOPED MY MASTERS AND PROFESSIONALS. MATT HAS 20 YEARS OF STUDY AND TEACHING IN AMERICA AND THE LAST 22 YEARS IN ASIA.
HAVE A LIMITATION OR DISABILITY?
THINK YOU’RE TOO OLD?
OUT OF SHAPE? NO PROBLEM.
UNLIKE MOST STYLES OR SCHOOLS, YOU ARE NOT FORCED TO CONFORM TO THE STYLE. THE TEACHER HAS A WEALTH OF EXPERIENCE AND CAN CONFORM THE PROGRAM AROUND YOUR WEAKNESSES AND STRENGTHS! UNLIKE SPORT, SOFT KUNG FU YOU ACTUALLY GET BETTER WITH AGE AND EXPERIENCE AS THE TECHNIQUES ARE REFINED AND USE THE OPPONENT AGAINST HIMSELF.
YOU WILL GET HEALTHIER AS WE ADD HEALTH AND LONGEVITY EXERCISES IN EACH CLASS.
