KUNG-FU WEAPONS!
One of the most fun parts about learning traditional Chinese Martial Arts is learning the ancient, exotic, traditional weapons! It really challenges you to reach a new level of coordination and flow!
NOTE:
You must become a Black Belt at Austin Kung-Fu Academy first, before you start training with weapons. However, private lessons can be arranged, to learn them before becoming a Black Belt - this requires instructor approval, first.
