Homeschool Kung Fu Classes (Tuesdays & Fridays) NEW SESSIONS

A daytime martial arts class for homeschoolers (and others) at Jing Ying Institute of Kung Fu & Tai Chi www.JingYing.org 410-431-5200

Two new 8-week sessions of Homeschool Kung Fu Classes at Jing Ying Institute start on the following dates:

Tuesday, November 11, 2014 - January 20, 2015 (9:00 - 10:00 a.m.)
& Friday, November 14, 2014 - January 23, 2015 (10:30 - 11:30 a.m.)

There will be breaks during the session for the Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year Holidays.

These daytime classes are open to anyone ages 5 to adult. Sign up for 1x/week or 2x/week. Pay a $10 drop-in to try out the first class, and it will be applied to the session if you decide to enroll.

Jing Ying Institute offers the benefits of our well-structured and progressive martial arts program in a daytime program for homeschoolers (others are welcome too). Improve your strength, flexibility, balance, coordination, and endurance while learning effective self-defense techniques in a non-aggressive environment. Kung Fu is really about learning to use your body properly. The skills you acquire will help with any physical activity you engage in. Classes are taught by long-time homeschooling dad (and owner of Jing Ying), Billy Greer.

Classes are suitable for ages 5 to adult and this is a great activity for parents to do with their children. The program is family-oriented, and reasonable pricing is offered to make it easier for multiple family members to take classes together. For those parents and siblings who do not participate in the classes, there are areas for you to socialize, read, and study. There is free WiFi so you can use your electronic devices to access the internet.

If you or your child is a new student, you have the option of paying a drop-in fee of $10 for the first class. It will be applied to the session fee if you decide to enroll for the 8 weeks.
