You will start with rigorous conditioning like knuckle push-ups and stance holding, followed by the focused, high-energy rhythm of 'One! Two!' as we drill traditional Praying Mantis techniques and partner exercises. We train as a team, ensuring every student, whether a child or adult, finds their specific focus. ### Training Philosophy and Structure At Core Power Kung Fu Academy, we view martial arts as a path to character, not just a way to fight. With over 20 years of experience, we have moved from our origins on Mamallapuram beach training to structured academies across Bengaluru and Chennai. Our training is designed to build confidence, discipline, and real-world skills. ### What We Cover * **Foundations:** We focus on traditional Shaolin Kung Fu basics, emphasizing proper stances, forms, and endurance conditioning. * **Praying Mantis Style:** As you advance, we introduce specialized Praying Mantis techniques, renowned for their precise hand forms and effective grabbing applications. * **Self-Defense:** We offer dedicated training for women and children, focusing on situational awareness and practical block-and-counter movements. * **Weaponry:** For advanced students, we teach discipline through Bo Staff and sword training, helping you master distance, timing, and control. ### Academy Environment We keep it real. Depending on your location—be it our HBR Layout or Mylapore branch—you might train in a structured studio or an open-air environment. We conduct regular belt grading ceremonies where we celebrate every achievement, from White to Black belt. It is about constant improvement, whether you join us for fitness or competition preparation. We are a family that supports one another, so expect to train, sweat, and grow alongside peers who share the same commitment to excellence. ## About Core Power Kung Fu Academy I am Sifu G Francis Aaron, and I have spent over 20 years teaching martial arts as a way to build courage.
