A Typical Class

 

Different areas of the martial arts are explored in-depth during class at Goldsmith Kung Fu and Mixed Martial Arts, in a rotating schedule. The current curriculum rotation consists of:

 

  • 10  days (1st-10th) of striking: Punching, kicking, clinch-work
  • 10 days (11-20th) of grappling: Wrestling, judo, submission wrestling, BJJ, Chin Nas
  • 10 days (21-30th) of Escrima (stick & knife fighting and defense), forms and stances
  • 1 day (31st) of Instructors Choice (usually a fun seminar-style topic)

The rotation takes 1 month , and belt tests are held every 4 months, so that students typically get at least 4 full cycles of the curriculum between belt tests. Additionally, this schedule allows new students to join up at any time, without feeling left behind, as each week something new is presented.

 

Each class at Goldsmith Kung Fu is 90 minutes long, and is broken in to three sections of approximately equal length. The first third of the class is spent on warm-ups and basic exercises related to the theme at hand. The second part of class focuses on the Wu Hun Dao content specifically required for each belt. The final third of each class is spent on sparring and related drills.

 

In addition to these classes, we offer dedicated BJJ classes.
