THE FAMOUS KUNG FU STYLES OF SNAKE, TIGER AND MONKEY ARE TAUGHT TO THE GOLD SUMMIT KIDS
Gold Summit young students learn the active and agile animal styles of Chinese Kung fu, just like Kung Fu Panda. We believe this is one of the best styles that a child can learn because it moves freely, utilizes rolls, jumps, tumbling, kicking and hand techniques.
Children and teens love the style as they feel they can channel their energy and accomplish great skills in flexibility, strength, agility, coordination, balance and self defense.
