Wushu Association to host workshops, seminars

Sessions will be staged in Princes Town, St Augustine, St James, San Fernando, Chaguanas, Siparia and in the sister isle Tobago

The Association is headed by Sifu Rahman Khabir, who has been involved in martial arts since 1968, honing his craft during the 1970s when he was a student of Grandmaster Alan Lee’s Kung Fu Wusu Association in New Jersey, United States

Wushu is a form of Chinese martial arts which evolved from Wusu (which originally meant War Art). Wushu is a martial art for sport, flair and acrobatics and not for self defence as contemporary Wushu is. Both traditional and contemporary arts are highly effective methods of mental and physical training, incorporating body conditioning, meditation breathing exercises, throwing and grappling

Tai Chi Chuan, also known as Tai Chi, is a more relaxed art performed by doing slow movements with the use of Chi or Vital Energy

It strengthens the body’s immune system and internal vital organs, combats stress and tensions in the body, helps regulate high and low blood pressure and assists in joint flexibility.Persons interested in the sessions can call 354-1114
