Bajiquan(Baji)

Bajiquan is a traditional Chinese fighting style known for its direct and powerful striking. It is considered the bodyguard martial arts. Unlike other fighting sports such as kick boxing, Baji does not require strong physical preparation even though it can turn into a very deadly style of martial arts if practiced at its highest level and with proper physical conditioning.

Wing Chun

Wing Chun is a Chinese martial arts form of self-defense utilizing both striking and grappling while specializing in close-range combat. According to legend, Wing Chun was created by a Buddhist named Nun Ng Mui, who was a master of Shaolin Kung Fu. Using her martial arts training and personal experience, she synthesized a compact form of Kung fu to exploit weaknesses in the other combat styles and give an advantage to smaller fighters like herself.

Taijiquan(Taiji)

Taijiquan is an ancient Chinese form of exercise originally created as a fighting art. It was founded by a Taoist Monk named Zhang San Feng. It’s origins date back over 700 years, some say even up to 1,500 years. Although Taiji was originally a Martial Arts style, it is mainly practiced today as an excellent form of exercise with many health benefits.

QiGong

Qigong is an umbrella term for a variety of ancient Chinese healing arts, all of which focus on cultivating the Qi, or internal energy, especially for health, vitality, and longevity.

Sanda employs all parts of the body as anatomical weapons to attack and counter with.

Our Surroundings

One of the many advantages of living and training on top of a mountain is the view of both the sunrise and the sunset. Each sunrise and sunset is different from the previous day and the following day. We experience all four seasons to it’s fullest and all fours season are beautiful in their own way. A couple of meters from our academy we have the Yehe Ancient Castle full of rich history about the Yehe Manchu family and the Qing Dynasty. Located behind the academy there is a ski resort that is open to the public in the winter. Also, located behind the Yehe Ancient Castle is a lake where you’re able to ice skate, fish and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Take advantage of not only the training we provide but our beautiful surroundings all year round.

The cooking is of course Chinese style.

The nutrition is enough to satisfy the requirements of the hardworking students. The water is clean and safe for human consumption but we also provide a water purifier as an extra precaution.

In the morning, the academy provides a loaf of bread and two eggs. For lunch and dinner, we serve Chinese dishes including at least one meat dish, one egg dish, one vegetable dish, fried chips, rice and occasionally soup. There is always enough food for the amount of foreign students we currently have training.
