Join us for Kung Fu Class with Master Zhou Xuan Yun!
Tuesday 27 August,
6 p.m. - 8 p.m.
The Wudang arts are sometimes referred to as 'internal' or 'soft' martial arts, as opposed to martial arts like Karate or Shaolin Kung Fu, which are called 'external' or 'hard' martial arts. The external arts focus on building external strength, are typically offensive, and use isolated body movements. The internal arts work on building inner strength, are typically defensive, and use whole body movements. The focus of training for Wudang Kung Fu is on inner strength or “nei jin.” Inner strength refers the ability to use the body's qi or vital energy in coordination with your movements.
Zhou Xuan Yun was raised on the most sacred mountain in China, Wudang Mountain, where he trained and later worked as an instructor of Taiji Quan (Tai Chi Chuan), Kung Fu and weaponry. Xuan Yun is an ordained Daoist priest, trained in ritual arts, chanting, divination, and qigong.
