Martial Arts
"Fighting should be reserved as a last resort!
However, if a situation should agitate itself to a physical level,
Jing-Shen Kuoshu can be used to seize control or immobilize the
attacker(s). Fighting is a dynamic understanding that there is no
technique that is perfect for all situations. You must be able to
adjust to fit any circumstance and have the ability to know the
difference. Jing-Shen Kuoshu combines and employs principles and
techniques from the worlds best marital arts and leading contemporary
sports sciences. The result is a rare opportunity for San Diegan's
to experience the enlightenment of martial science." Grandmaster
Greg Fraser.

| Jing- energy, also
called "essence", is the primordial energy unique to an
individual that is passed to them at conception. Jing is received
from one's parents and has no "material form". Its closest
Western counterpart is DNA (our genetic material). This energy governs
the developmental growth processes in the body and the rate and degree
of determination of the body. Chinese Medicine teaches that Jing can
be strengthened through diet, lifestyle and herbal treatments.
Shen- is known as the "psyche",
"mind" or "spirit". Shen is said to be the driving
energy behind activities that take place in the mental, spiritual
or creative planes. Moderately weak Shen often manifests itself
as anxiety, mild depression or chronic restlessness. Very weak Shen
is possibly indicated by deeper psychological problems. Shen can
be strengthened through medication, physical exercises such as T'ai
Qi and Qi Gong and by herbal remedies.
Qi (Chee) is the most dynamic and immediate
energy of the body. This unique energy results from the interaction
of yin and yang. It has been called "energy", "vital
energy", "primal energy" and "life force".
A healthy body is a wellspring of constant circulating Qi which
moves around the body, in and out of the body, up and down within
the body. Vibrant Qi has warming properties that bring about a sense
of complete harmony and wellness.
