The academy traits are as follows: Respect, Leadership, Patience, Focus, Persistence, Teamwork, Appreciation, Modesty, Integrity and Mindfulness. It is the goal of our instructional staff to teach youth the importance of upholding the highest standard of behavior in their day to day lives. Equally important to mastering martial art is fostering in the way our students treat one another (i.e. respect, patience and teamwork) and how they tackle learning.
Academy skills are a set of skills in addition to martial arts that we teach our students. This is meant to be a fun but also productive way to build lifelong skills. Examples of academy skills include: How to fold a T shirt in 3 seconds, How to tie your shoe lace in 3 seconds. We have many academy skills that supplement our Wushu curriculum! Kids enjoy these because that means they can earn reward points!
Yes! Friday performances happen at the end of the week, and will consist of camp attendees putting on a FREE performance for family and friends!

We have tripled our training space since then but due to COVID restrictions, we will likely implement controlled attendance numbers.

During Summer Wushu weeks every student will have an account in our rewards system. This rewards system will be hosted via ClassDojo.
