Body Flow Children’s Active Work Martial Arts
Our mission is to improve children’s reflexes, agility, flexibility, peripheral vision, hand-eye coordination and problem-solving skills while having fun.
An ancient Chinese martial art Workshop for the girls of classes VII-X was organized at KALKA PUBLIC SCHOOL ,Alaknanda on 3rd & 4th May 2019 by Kung Fu. The obvious and most important reason for a girl to get involved in the martial arts is the capacity for Self Defence that she will develop.
In today’s increasingly violent world, crime can strike anywhere. Women are often times the target of sex crimes and, not knowing how to defend themselves, it can scar a young girl for her entire life. Being able to know how to defend herself is an invaluable tool as she grows up, taking her skills with her to college, and it gives not only her but also her parents a feeling that at least their daughter is safe. During the workshop,girls were made to focus on Kung Fu style warm-up stretching exercises, body alignment and breathing, how to allow the opponents force to naturally drop into your root,to Discover Strength within Softness and how “Less is More” in Tai Chi Push Hands.
Students enjoyed this one hour effective drills to improve their push hands skill! All the participants were given CERTIFICATES in the morning Assembly.
