Quality Northern Shou' Shu' for Sonora

After Da' Shifu Al Moore's passing it became incredibly difficult to find a Shou' Shu' school. As the pressures within the system to "modernize" became stronger a large number of the quality instructors went on their way. No one except maybe a few teachers very loyal to their art remained. As far as we know, we were the only school to continue to teach Da' Shifu's Shou' Shu' in a commercial school. With the loss of so many quality instructors, Shou' shu' itself was at risk. The art could have easily been lost. We just couldn't stand for that. We are now offering a system of teaching which is convenient for Lodi Residents yet is a very high quality instruction. Through a combination of Free online kung fu lessons , occassional seminars, Sacramento training sessions, and occassional trips to the Valley Springs Quan (about an hour from Sonora) a student can get very high quality Shou' Shu' instruction in a very convenient manner.

Online Lessons

Our online lessons are highly detailed and very easy to use. Videos of classes are just like being there. Follow along with the class in the convenience of your own home when it's convenient for you. videos show all of the techniques from different angles and at different speeds. See the techniques done on opponents at high speed to get an idea of it's efficiency and flow. Then view them by the numbers to understand how to move your own body. You'll find an extremely high level of detail, convenience, and ease of use.

Seminars

We hold occasional seminars on belt material and other subjects. Half day or full day seminars allow for a great deal of concentrated focus. These greatly help the student progress and also allow for training with other students. Seminars are held in the Valley Springs facility and at various Sacramento locations. Seminars are always taught by fully qualified high ranking shifu's who have met the demanding requirements of the International Shou' Shu' Association. No egos. Just high quality instruction and a lot of fun.

Belt Material Classes

Classes are taught in a by rank format. All ranks are working on their specific material. In regular classes there are no mixing of ranks. Since everyone is grouped together and focused on their material it's a lot like a private lesson. But better since you get to work out with others. If you are taking the online lessons you can easily supplement your training with a quick trip up to the Valley Springs Location or one of our occassional Sacramento training sessions. Visit for a class once or twice a month and you'll stay right on track in your training.
