Our school slogan:"The ultimate self-defense is self-awareness.™"
Qi (Chi) is the energy flow throughout the body. Qi is the magnetic forces of the earth and its various types of matter. Qi is the solar radiation of planets and our sun. Qigong (Chi Kung) is the study and development of each student's awareness and well-being. Utilizing the external forces and developing internal energies, the Shaolin Chi Mantis student becomes a dynamic living force with powers and abilities beyond normal comprehension. Combining ancient wisdoms with modern science, Qigong is the mastering of all life forces.
Our goals at Shaolin Chi Mantis are to provide better balanced people to lead better balanced lives. Our traditional Chinese Gongfu Forms are the tools each student uses to master the concepts of life and spirituality. The Classical Chinese weapons are musical instruments that extend the mental and physical awareness of each student. Most of all we learn the joy of hard work and that life is fun for those who master it.
We hope you will enroll for whatever your personal ambitions are and graduate with the completion of your original objectives and many more goals that you were not even aware of.
