About PhD Martial Arts
Power, Honor, Discipline…these are the key elements in our philosophy here at PhD Martial Arts. We strive to promote healthy living through martial arts. We do this by instructing our students in the two thousand year old art of Kung Fu San Soo. Why San Soo you say? What sets our style apart from others? Simply put, we choose to focus on character building and self-defense rather than competition. Kung Fu San Soo is not a sport, we teach the children in our school that we "only use our Kung Fu if we think we are going to the hospital." Adult Kun Fu San Soo students learn that their training is to be used to protect themselves and loved ones.
We keep kids focused on 4 things:
Smiling – Learning should be fun and the warm, heart felt smiles I get when the kids are focused shows them that they can enjoy hard work.
Sweating – The kids may not realize it, but while they are having fun they are getting great exercise; increasing muscle, improving coordination, better balance, and cardio activity.
Developing Strong Character - We spend a great deal of time incorporating character building skills into the students training. Things like self-esteem, self-confidence, random acts of kindness, leadership skills, accountability, honor, integrity, self-discipline and respect for themselves and the world around them are taught and practiced in each class. The kids love the reaction of adults when they say “Yes, Mam or Yes, Sir” and our Virtues of the Month help them to stay focused on one area of growth.
Practicing Self Defense – PhD healthy living through Martial Arts offers children’s classes in Kung Fu San Soo. This martial art form is over 2000 years old and was created for protection and defense. It is not a sport and our students are taught never to use their Kung Fu unless they think they are “going to the hospital”. The students learn to protect themselves from harm while gaining the “straight backed” confidence that detours predators.
PhD healthy living through Martial Arts specializes in preparing children for life and leadership; by reducing stress, increasing confidence, building self-esteem and self-discipline all while protecting & promoting family values.
