Course Overview:


Year 1: Foundations of Blue Mantis Kung Fu - The Harmonic Symphony of Sarm Bo Gin and Sarm Bo Yil Kiel


  • Embarking on the inaugural year of your Blue Mantis journey is a journey into the heart of Kung Fu, where the foundational elements are not just learned but lived. Within this transformative odyssey, two forms take center stage, each a chapter in the martial art symphony that is uniquely Blue Mantis.


Sarm Bo Gin: The Primal Dance


  • At the core of our exploration is Sarm Bo Gin, the "3 Step Arrow Fist." This form, the alpha and omega of Blue Mantis, is more than a sequence of movements—it's a sacred dance, a language that speaks to the soul of Kung Fu. It's where your journey begins and ends, a continuous cycle of growth and evolution.


Sarm Bo Yil Kiel: Shaking the Foundations


  • Now, let's delve into the second form, Sarm Bo Yil Kiel translated as "Shake the Bridge." If Sarm Bo Gin is the heartbeat, Sarm Bo Yil Kiel is the disruptor—a force that reverberates through the foundations laid by its predecessor.  


Backing Up and Reinforcing:  


  • Sarm Bo Yil Kiel is not a departure from Sarm Bo Gin; it's a complementary force, backing up and reinforcing the lessons learned in the primal dance. Picture it as the echo that follows each step of Sarm Bo Gin, resonating through the chambers of your practice. 


Disrupting Stance and Composure:


  • The essence of Sarm Bo Yil Kiel lies in disruption. As you execute its movements, imagine shaking a bridge beneath an opponent's feet—disrupting their stance, testing their composure. It introduces you to the art of controlled chaos, a skill that sets you apart as a practitioner of Blue Mantis.


A Harmonic Symphony:


  • Together, Sarm Bo Gin and Sarm Bo Yil Kiel create a harmonic symphony—a fusion of the foundational and the disruptive. Sarm Bo Gin sets the rhythm, and Sarm Bo Yil Kiel introduces the counterpoint, creating a tapestry that embodies the duality within Kung Fu.


Your Journey:


  • In your Year 1 immersion, these forms become your companions, guiding you through the intricate steps of Blue Mantis. Sarm Bo Gin initiates, and Sarm Bo Yil Kiel refines, ensuring that disruption becomes a tool in your arsenal—a method to test, challenge, and ultimately overcome.
  • As you progress through the sacred dance of these foundational forms, understand that you are not just learning movements; you are becoming a custodian of a tradition that spans generations. Sarm Bo Gin and Sarm Bo Yil Kiel beckon you to embrace the full spectrum of Kung Fu—the harmonious and the disruptive, the foundational and the transformative. 
  • Welcome to the symphony of Blue Mantis, where each form is a note, and your journey is the melody that resonates through the corridors of time.

 

Weapons Training & Development - Double Short Sticks:


  •  Delve into the art of wielding double short sticks, where agility and precision intertwine. Mastering this traditional weaponry not only refines your physical prowess but also hones your mental acuity, setting the stage for the multifaceted journey that awaits.




Year 2: Intermediate Level 1 Techniques and Weaponry - Unveiling the Inner Energies


  • As you step into the second year of your Blue Mantis journey, the unfolding intricacies of the art lead you into the realm of profound insights and advanced techniques. Year 2 is not just a continuation; it's a deeper exploration, a journey into the inner energies that define Blue Mantis.


Sarm Kung Bic Kiel: The Dance of Continuous Energy Flow


  • Enter the realm of the third form, Sarm Kung Bic Kiel translated as "3 Times Forcing Through Energy." This form is a gateway into a profound understanding of energy flow—a dance that goes beyond physical movements. 


Continuous Bridge and Energy Without Loss:


  • In Sarm Kung Bic Kiel, envision yourself forging a continuous bridge of energy. Each movement is not just an isolated action; it's a seamless flow, maintaining a connection that transcends the physical. Here, you learn to navigate the currents of energy without loss, an art that marks the beginning of the zero-point loop energy field.


Zero Point Loop Energy Field:


  • The concept of the zero-point loop energy field is more than a technique; it's a philosophy embedded in the form. It signifies a state where energy is not expended but continuously circulates, creating a field of harmonious balance. Sarm Kung Bic Kiel introduces you to this state—a realm where your movements become an expression of energy's infinite loop.


Sarm Bo Pai Tarn: The Flow of the Willow Tree


  • Now, let's delve into the fourth form, Sarm Bo Pai Tarn, which translates as "To Slice and Flick Energy." This form introduces you to a unique stance—one that mirrors the resilience of a tree trunk and the flexibility of willow tree limbs.


Slice and Flick Energy:


  • In Sarm Bo Pai Tarn, your movements are characterized by precision, mimicking the slicing and flicking of energy. This isn't just a physical action; it's a dance where your body becomes a conduit for energy manipulation. Picture your limbs as extensions of the willow tree, responding to the subtlest of breezes with grace and adaptability.


Stance as a Tree Trunk:


  • Root yourself deep into the earth, adopting a stance akin to a tree trunk with unwavering stability. This foundation becomes your anchor, providing the necessary support for the intricate dance of energy expressed through your upper body.


Limbs of the Willow Tree:


  • As your upper body moves, imagine the fluidity of willow tree limbs. They don't resist; they yield and flow, embodying the principle of "softness overcomes hardness." Sarm Bo Pai Tarn teaches you to be adaptable and to respond to external forces with resilience rather than resistance.


Your Journey: 


  • In Year 2, these forms become gateways to a deeper understanding of Blue Mantis. Sarm Kung Bic Kiel and Sarm Bo Pai Tarn usher you into the realm of inner energies, where your movements are not just techniques but expressions of a profound philosophy—a philosophy that embraces continuity, balance, and adaptability.
  • As you progress, let the wisdom encoded in these forms permeate your practice. Embrace the dance of continuous energy flow and the stance of the willow tree, for within them lies the essence of Blue Mantis at its intermediate level. Welcome to a year of exploration, where each movement unveils a deeper layer of the intricate tapestry that is Blue Mantis Kung Fu.


Weapons Training & Development:


  • 1st Staff Form & 1st Walking Stick Form: Embark on a journey into traditional weaponry with the 1st Staff Form and 1st Walking Stick Form. This stage isn't just about wielding weapons; it's about unlocking the poetry within each movement, showcasing your proficiency and grace in the world of martial arts weaponry.



Year 3: Intermediate Level 2 and Specialized Training - The Embodiment of Mastery


  • As you enter the culminating year of your Blue Mantis journey, the intricacies deepen, and the forms reveal advanced techniques that transcend the physical. Year 3 is not merely a progression; it is the embodiment of mastery and a gateway to specialized training that sets you on the path to true adeptness. 


Yum Yearn Kum La Sou: The Harmony of Yin Yang Seizing Hands


  • The fifth form, Yum Yearn Kum La Sou, translates as "Yin Yang Seizing Hands." This form is a profound exploration into the balance of hands, body, mind, and soul—the collective essence of your being. 


Balance of Yin and Yang:


  • Picture yourself striking opposite points simultaneously, seamlessly utilizing the principles of yin and yang. This is not just a physical act; it's a dance that incorporates the hard and soft body awareness inherent in Blue Mantis. The harmony of opposites is not just a concept; it becomes a lived experience in every movement. 


Sensitivity of Touch and the Zero Point Energy Field:


  • As you progress, the sensitivity of touch becomes paramount. Yum Yearn Kum La Sou teaches you that every touch, every connection, is an opportunity to embody the zero-point energy field—a state where energy flows harmoniously, and the distinction between self and other dissolves. 


Tonglong Bo Sim Sou: The Gateway to Advanced Training


  • The sixth form, Tonglong Bo Sim Sou, translates as "Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada." This form serves as a gateway, ushering you into the next phase of training and the first door of advanced techniques. 


Development of Snatching/Catching Energy:


  • Now, the focus shifts to the development of snatching and catching energy. Strikes become more precise, executed over shorter distances with accuracy that targets Dim Mak and pressure points. Tonglong Bo Sim Sou is a symphony of controlled power, emphasizing the strategic and tactical aspects of your techniques. 


The Next Phase of Training:
