Workshops & Group Taster Sessions
At Wandering Warrior Kung Fu, we offer unique workshops and group taster sessions designed to introduce key martial arts concepts in an engaging, accessible way. Our sessions cater to groups with little or no martial arts experience, helping participants explore the fundamentals of movement, strategy, and self-defense through low-impact, partner-based fighting games, as well as drills and exercises from traditional martial arts.
These sessions can be standalone experiences or structured as a short course, allowing participants to develop an appreciation for martial arts over several classes. By the end of a multi-session program, students will have encountered a broad spectrum of concepts, giving them a solid foundation to evaluate and appreciate further martial arts teachings—whether at our school or elsewhere.
Recent Sessions with Leap Sports
We recently partnered with Leap Sports to introduce participants to key martial arts principles through interactive drills and partner-based exercises. The sessions blended movement, strategy, and self-defense in an engaging and accessible format.
“The Kung Fu classes are deeply enriching because they combine physical discipline and mental focus. I enjoyed improving my physical fitness, mind-body connection, and self-defense skills.”

Self-Defense Workshops
We also offer self-defense workshops focusing on simple, adaptable skills rather than fixed techniques.
Instead of teaching a few set "moves" that may or may not work in real situations, we train fundamental concepts that can be applied in any scenario, including:
- Using footwork and basic movements to control distance from a potential threat.
- Managing surprise and awareness to anticipate and react effectively.
- Minimizing damage in a physical confrontation through strategic positioning.
- Creating space and opportunities to escape with minimal risk.
Our self-defense approach emphasizes realistic application—training awareness, avoidance, and de-escalation as much as physical response.
Seminars for Traditional Martial Artists
For experienced martial artists from any style, we offer seminars designed to help practitioners analyze their movements and refine their application for realistic combat scenarios.
These seminars focus on:
- Breaking down traditional movements and finding practical applications.
- Developing training games that allow techniques to be tested against resisting opponents.
- Understanding combat dynamics and improving efficiency in martial application.
This is an excellent opportunity for traditional martial artists to bridge the gap between forms and functional fighting.
