Girl Power

A daughter's martial arts expertise offers her parents peace-of-mind, yet many girls never get an opportunity to learn. Martial arts is male-dominated because many girls are not as attracted to brute force and combat techniques. At Calvin Chin's Martial Arts Academy, we have leveled the playing field for boys and girls, as our training method uses natural strength and proper alignment based on the principles of body mechanics. Skill gained through efficient use of force and total coordination is the reward. 


On the surface, our  choreographed sequences reflect the exquisite artistry of the form, much like dance. Unlike dance, each movement carries an intent reflecting the functional aspect of a traditional martial art. Along with the practical knowledge gained, our training method, Fu Hok Tai He Morn is a great vehicle for developing a strong body and mind; lifting the inner- spirit and enhancing self-awareness in maturing girls.
