I have been practicing Kung Fu (external) and Tai Chi (internal) at Tusc Shaolin-Do Kung Fu for a couple years now. Master David is very knowledgeable, and strives to make all students reach their full potential. For those hesitant, the curriculum is structured very well throughout the journey towards black belt. I recommend taking the Tai Chi classes, followed by the Kung Fu classes to fully embrace, and appreciate this discipline of martial arts. The Tai Chi taught, goes beyond simplistic postures and poses, and you learn many forms, and their applications. Not only can these lessons be used in self defense, but also for keeping the body in check. This, along with light stretching, and meditation techniques are what you can expect to gain from the Tai Chi classes. The Kung Fu classes go a bit further in the stretching, and conditioning. You'll learn sparring techniques, katas and forms, weapons, self respect, and discipline. Make yourself healthier, stronger, and more confident. Check out Tusc Shaolin-Do Kung Fu!

Several years back, Master David approached me and my wife Ashley about whether we were interested in learning Kung Fu. He was about to open a new school, and he was looking for a few students to help things get off the ground. I had about six years' experience in Karate; for Ashley it was a completely new experience. I agreed to join if I could talk Ashley into coming on board with me to do it as a couple, and she gave me a skeptical look, but agreed anyways. So, we've been with David since the beginning, and help him out with classes from time to time. Don't be fooled by David's Clark Kent exterior, or unassuming, mild-mannered midwestern demeanor. Underneath that is a 5th degree master with 20 years' experience in martial arts, an encyclopedic knowledge of dozens upon dozens of forms, and a truly impressive level of competence in hand-to-hand combat techniques. And he's a genuinely nice guy, very supportive and encouraging. The primary difference I've seen between my prior martial arts training and learning Kung Fu with Master David, is the depth of the material. In other martial arts, you might learn a few dozen blocks, punches, and kicks, and a dozen katas or forms, and then repeatedly drill that repertoire until it becomes second nature. In Kung Fu, there is an incredible depth to the material. Multiple fighting styles, each with their own unique techniques. Enough forms to learn to last an entire lifetime, with something new to teach you. Extremely advanced pressure point and joint manipulation techniques. If my karate training was elementary or high school level, these are college level building up towards PhD level courses, post-Black Belt. There's a pretty fair mix of ages, perhaps 30% children and adolescents, 30% teens, and 40% adults, which is a mix you don't often see since so many classes focus exclusively on younger ages. There are also a lot of families who tend to take the classes together, father/son, mother/daughter, sister/sister, which adds a nice dynamic as well. If you're looking for a good martial arts experience in T-County, highly recommend it.
