The Covid-19 crisis has forced all of us to adapt to many changes, but one of the good changes is that we are much better equipped for handling virtual meetings. We are taking advantage of this to bring together top instructors from around the country to give you the opportunity to learn new skills from the comfort and safety of your home.
Uniting four styles and four instructors from the East Coast to the West Coast. This is the workshop you must attend to cover basic movements from Bagua, Chen TaiJi, Eagle Claw, and Wing Chun. The emphasis will be on applications derived from those basic movements. You will learn effective joint locking, throwing, and striking techniques. Whether you are an expert in the art or a beginner, you will come away with new skills and understanding of these arts!
This virtual workshop will be held using Zoom, so that participants and instructors can interact with each other. The week before the workshop, you will be sent a link and information on how to participate.
