Arts, Offerings, & Benefits

 
Wushu / Kung Fu
"Pushing the Limits of Human Potential"
Taiji / Tai Chi
"Rejuvenation of Mind & Body"

Wushu / Kung Fu is a mentally and physically challenging art, involving many circular movements and whole-body coordinations. It is the sharp and beautiful martial art frequently used in movies.

JING Kung Fu / Wushu also includes training in Sanshou (sparring) and Qinna (joint-locking), so that students can better understand where moves come from and how they are actually used.

Benefits of Wushu / Kung Fu

With training in Kung Fu / Wushu, you may find that everyday life is quite a bit more enjoyable and a whole lot more fun, as you are stronger, more supple, more agile, and have a great artistic outlet.

Wushu / Kung Fu is fabulous for increasing strength, flexibility, coordination, speed, and endurance. 

A common phrase heard in class is "I never thought I could do that, and now I can. This is great."

Taiji / Tai Chi translates as "the supreme ultimate."  The principles of Tai Chi / Taiji are balance, relaxation, and coordination, within and between body, mind, and spirit, with the effect of "overcoming a thousand pounds with the force of four ounces".  Tai Chi's fluid movements and peaceful rhythms are meant to soothe the body and invigorate the spirit.

 

Benefits of Tai Chi / Taiji

Tai Chi's fluid movements and peaceful rhythms soothe the mind, strengthen the body, and invigorate the spirit.

Outwardly, Tai Chi / Taiji improves posture, strength, and flexibility.

Inwardly, Tai Chi / Taiji improves balance, coordination, circulation, and immune function.

In summary, Tai Chi / Taiji helps people develop an overall sense of balance and well-being.

Samurai & Ninja Arts

Wing Chun Kung Fu
"The Art of Close-Range Fighting"

JING is proud to house
Bujinkan Taka-Seigi Dojo | San Diego

From the Bujinkan website:

"We train with a serious mind and the intensity needed to live life. We do this without losing sight of our humanness or sense of humor."

"The primary purpose of our training is to deal with a concern that we all share, self-defense. We offer another definition: the physical defense of ourselves and those important to us against a determined attacker. This definition enables us to train ourselves more effectively and is the center of gravity for everything we do. All else, while important and enjoyable, is secondary. Our approach to training is rigorous enough for professional warriors (i.e. law enforcement and military) and structured enough for the common person."

Wing Chun kung fu is a Southern Chinese kung fu style based on the snake and crane techniques. It is a no-nonsense fighting art, very simple and direct, that is easy to learn but difficult to master.  Bruce Lee's kung fu was based on Wing Chun.

Wing Chun kung fu teaches practical and efficient fighting applications, including short-range power generation for close-range fighting, and using opponents' force against themselves.

Benefits of Wing Chun kung fu

Wing Chun kung fu teaches people how to defend themselves.

Students develop sensitivity for the movements of their opponents, and therefore quick reactions and reflexes. Wing Chun also trains students' strength and structure so that they can easily and efficiently execute clean and proper techniques.

Wing Chun kung fu is about pursuing the truth - the truth of one's dedication and the truth of the fighting spirit.
