Training at U.S. Kuo Shu Academy is available for everyone, including experienced martial artists. A number of our students trained in other martial arts styles before finding the U.S. Kuo Shu Academy. Our only requirements are that you attend with a willingness to participate and a respectful attitude. We generally start all students at the beginning of the curriculum for our programs. Our program is a time-tested, systematic approach to martial arts training. As such, we want each student to go through a step-by-step program, beginning with basic training. If you have already trained at another school, it is likely that your experience will allow you to attain proficiency at a faster rate than inexperienced students.
