All About Wushu

[Monster Mummy]

Hi,


I am not quite sure what is the minimum age for the kid to learn Wushu, but you can talk to the instructor that you intend to enrol to know. For my child who attend the Wushu at CC, there are children who is 5 years but their size is small built and end up look like below 5 years old. So it is wise for you to talk to the instructor to understand more.

From observation of a kids’ wushu session, personally feel that tone of the training sessions is set by the instructor. As it involves some form of stretching and using of 棍，刀，the instructor should be strict in enforcing no-nonsense to ensure the younger kids learn the correct way n no injuries.

My DS has tried aikido before wushu n I think there were more fun elements in the previous one, probably because aikido is not so injury prone.
From observing the sessions, have seen some older kids who are serious n does all strokes properly. Others who just go through the motion n seems to have no heart in the lessons just look clumsy n I guessed they are there as sent on parents’ will.

Wa, you're ninjago, no wonder you prefer aikido!

I also think instructors are really important - and this applies to every discipline - TKD, ballet, etc.

Am keen to send both of my kids for Wushu (school doesn't offer CCA), and would like to find out from parents on what \"benefits\" you've witnessed in your children after they've picked up the sport. (any parents can answer)
