• What is Pakua?

Pa Kua is an Ancient Martial Arts and Philosophy, which started in China six thousand years ago, and is the fore runner of both Kung Fu and Karate. It's main purpose is the development of Chinese civilization. One of the greatest philosopher of all times that based his teachings and knowledge in Pa Kua was Confusius.

Pa Kua is well known for being both a combat martial art, and a martial art that emphasizes health benefits. Powerful palm heel strikes, evasive foot work, spiraling, coiling, spinning movements, and the characteristic circle walk are staple of pa kua. Students first learn flexibility and proper body alignment through such exercises, then move on to more complex forms and internal power mechanics.

Affordable Children Programs

At the Candal's Martial Arts Academy, our children's programs is second to none.

That's why our unique program of work and fun is designed to instill:

• Effort and concentration
• Sincerity and respect
• Self-Control
• Etiquette

"Since I started practicing at Candal's Martial Arts Academy it has helped me become more athletic, have more self confidence and make more friends."-Kristian Santos, Age:9

By embodying these principles in our children's classes, the Candal's Martial Arts Academy team has made a strong commitment to the development of today's youth. By building self confidence, self respect and self discipline we can go along way in helping youngsters overcome the many obstacles they face.

Our unique program of learning includes education in history, geography and anatomy, further establishing that our commitment to your child's development is not just physical but educational as well.

Get the most out of yourself In our adult program the student will experience a combination of exercise for both the body and the mind. On the physical side, we strengthen the body with isometric and dynamic tension exercises.Optimum flexibility is developed through a gradual process of safe and easy stretching techniques. With deep breathing and concentration exercise we will relax the mind and sharpen response time so as to handle difficult situations without difficulty.

The System

Kung Fu Pa Kua is a complete system so you will learn to defend yourself against all situations intelligently including two person attacks and how to disarm an opponent with a weapon. With all the situations, success is determined by two things. First, you must believe that you can do it and second, you must have the self discipline to make it happen. Training with Candal's Martial Arts Academy will give you both of these attributes and help you both in business and in daily life. After just a few weeks of training you will notice improvement in your energy levels, flexibility and health.
