Fitness Classes
Fitness classes are open to the public and
to Cuong Nhu students who want extra conditioning .
Classes
are free to monthly members.
CX Fit
Monday and Wednesday 6:00am—7:00am, and Tuesday 8:00pm--8:30pm
CX-Fit classes focus on functional movements performed at
relatively high intensity and scalable to one's current fitness
level. The classes focus on short, intense intervals with
a limited rest period
and
incorporate
gymnastic
movements, Coung Nhu movements and weighted exercises. CX-Fit
is based on both CrossFit and Cuong Nhu fitness principles
and will help develop accuracy of movement, coordination,
stamina, speed and strength.
Soft Style
Class Tuesday and Thursday
11:00am—12:00am
Two mornings a week we focus on the soft style influences
of Cuong Nhu, primarily Tai Chi Chuan and Aikido. The
soft styles, which focus on balance, posture, fluidity
and
perception are a great way to build strength, flexibility,
and balance without the risk of injury. Soft Style Class
is
suitable for adults of all ages regardless of martial arts
experience.
- Beginners
Students beginning regular Cuong Nhu training may advance
more quickly by taking on the soft side of Cuong Nhu
at the
same
time
as the hard, which is the primary focus of regular beginners'
classes. A
student may also elect to take only the soft style
class, though they would progress separately
from the ranking system.
- Seniors
Softy-style class
provides
a low-impact way for seniors to participate in a physically
and mentally engaging discipline. Adults with injuries
or weaknesses are given special recommendations for modifying
movements. Students
move at their own pace with the level of intensity that
best suits their physical condition.
- Advanced
Students
As students progress towards their black belt, it becomes
more and more essential that they master the soft side
of Cuong Nhu in addition to the hard. While
these concepts are covered in their primary classes, most
students benefit from additional study of the subtleties
of soft styles.
