Welcome

Why Martial Arts ?

Martial arts are an ancient method of training your mind, body and spirit to act as one. Adults and children who participate in martial arts reap many mental and physical benefits. For example, martial arts can boost self-confidence, improve self-discipline, sharpen reflexes and improve stamina, focus and patience, and it provides a total body workout. Children who are involved in martial arts often exhibit increased self-control, respect, coordination, discipline and self-esteem.

 

At our Kansas City Self Defense Studio, we teach the Shaolin Kempo martial arts style to students of every age, gender and skill level. This style is based on an ancient method of self-defense taught in a safe, fun and family-friendly environment. The Shaolin style combines the Five Animals of Shaolin Kung Fu (Shaolinquan), the core competency of Kempo, the hard-hitting explosiveness of traditional Karate, as well as the power of Western boxing and the felling and grappling arts of Jiu JitsuChin Na and Mongolian wrestling. This hybrid style combines the four ways of fighting: striking, kicking, felling and grappling to eliminate the inherent weakness of martial arts styles that only focus on one or two techniques.

No matter your age or skill level, martial arts will positively influence all aspects of your mind, body and life. And it’s fun!
