Ephrata Martial Arts offers Bai Kai
Kung Fu -

Ephrata Martial Arts and Bai Kai Kung Fu
a Northern Chinese martial arts system of both self
defense and artistry developed by Si Jo James Parker and
known throughout the world. The ten-rank system is based
on the traditional Five Animals. At Ephrata Martial Arts, ranking
is based upon a student's individual development, demonstrated
proficiency of learned skills, and commitment.

Something for Everyone!
Stress relief. Improved confidence. Fitness. Concentration. Balance.
No matter what students want to gain from training in the martial arts, the Kung Fu program at Ephrata Martial Arts gives them exactly what they're looking for. No two classes are ever the same, eliminating boredom—a leading cause of fitness burnout. Think Kung Fu is 'no sweat'? No way! Students get a great cardio workout—whether kicking and punching focus mitts, working out on the bags, or sparring.

Traditional Kung Fu Forms
Both functional and beautiful, forms are an exercise in concentration and memory, as well as physical endurance. Forms combine stances, punches, kicks and various offensive and defensive techniques learned through progressive stages of training and become increasingly difficult with rank, requiring greater skill, balance and agility. Fluid and
graceful, the later forms reinforce the characteristics
of the Five Animals. Derived from the five elements
of the Earth, the Five Animals represent physical
and emotional qualities. Snake represents water
and flowing movements. Tiger is fire, for
fearlessness and aggression.
Crane, symbolized by Wood, is
graceful and balanced. Dragon
is derived from Earth, meditative,
stable and wise, and Leopard
which represents Metal,
emphasizing strength,
speed and flexibility.

 
Chinese Weapons Training
The Kung Fu program at Ephrata Martial Arts offers training in traditional bladed and non-bladed (edged and impact) Chinese weapons such as the Staff, Broadsword, Straightsword, Nunchaku, Chain Whip, Sickles (Kamas), and Fans. The practical applications of the sticks, baton and knife are taught for self defense purposes.

Students at Ephrata Martial Arts demonstrate their skill in empty-hand and weapons forms, and sparring at local and nationally accredited tournaments.The Ephrata Martial Arts competition team has quickly gained recognition, proving to have some of the top talent in the nation—The hundreds of trophies adorning the front windows of Ephrata Martial Arts' studio on Fulton St. are just a fraction of their winnings, yet remain a constant reminder of the team's dedication and proven skill in competitive martial arts.
