Kung Fu in Cedar Rapids
Revolution Martial Arts
and Iowa Wing Chun
Association is offering
classes at the Cedar Rapids
training facility for people
interested in studying Kung
Fu.
Wing Chun is a Chinese
martial art that specializes
in close range combat.
The focus of this martial
art is to emphasize
efficiency and practicality
which results in it being
extremely effective.
Wing Chun teaches
practioners to use the least
amount of force required in
any fighting situation.
The practicality comes
into play with the concept
of striking and knowing the
shortest distance between
two paths is a straight
line. With a correctly
timed position and movement
a weaker person can defeat a
stronger person. To
achieve this one must work
on balance, relaxation and
body structure.
Wing Chun uses blocking
or deflection and attacking
in the same motion rather
then blocking and then
attacking in two motions.
This concept makes this
style of martial art a very
efficient one.
This is just a small
sampling of the great things
a person can learn by taking
this class. It is
always a good idea to learn
some form of self defense
skills as one never knows if
and when it will be
necessary to defend yourself
or a loved one.
