Kung Fu disciples of Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming's YMAA Retreat Center 10-year extensive kung fu program instruct traditional training for endurance, power and exceptional health.
Body conditioning is the crucial foundation in traditional kung fu training and can be used in modern times to supercharge our health and immune system. This regimen is designed to build and fortify the entire body's structure preparing it for the rigors of martial arts practice. These traditional body-conditioning methods will gradually strengthen your bones, joints, and muscles, allowing you to develop speed, rooting, and explosive power without injury. You will become more fit and flexible, you will improve the health of your spine and internal organs, and you will enhance your cardiovascular endurance.
Though this challenging training, one also develops their character, with humility, patience, perseverance, courage and incredible willpower.
Body conditioning includes stretching, whole-body strength training, tumbling drills, and outdoor training methods, such as running, rope climbing, and rock throwing. This total body workout is balanced with Qi (energy) cultivating meditation techniques that are essential for all martial arts styles. Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming teaches the fundamentals of 'Grand Circulation' meditation, with details about posture, the qi (energy) circulatory system, and how to increase your martial power, for any fighting style.

Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming (楊俊敏博士) started his Kung Fu training at the age of fifteen under the Shaolin White Crane (Bai He) Master Cheng, Gin Gsao (曾金灶). In thirteen years of study (1961-1974) under Master Cheng, Dr. Yang became an expert in the White Crane style of Chinese martial arts, which includes both the use of bare hands and of various weapons such as saber, staff, spear, trident, two short rods, and many others. Dr. Yang also studied traditional Shaolin Long Fist Kung Fu with Master Li, Mao-Ching (李茂 清), himself a student of legendary Han, Ching-Tang, at the Tamkang College Guoshu Club (1964-1968) where Dr. Yang was studying Physics. Dr. Yang's Taijiquan lineage can be traced back to the Yang family through Master Kao, Tao (高濤) and his teacher Yue, Huanzhi (樂奐之), an indoor disciple of Yang, Chengfu (楊澄甫).
