1. What is Gung Fu (Kung Fu)?
A: Gung Fu or Kung Fu is a Chinese word meaning cultivated skill obtained by long and hard work.
           
2. Why should I try Gung Fu?
A:  There are many benefits to Kung Fu training, including:
-Improved fitness and flexibility
-Learning invaluable self-defense skills
-It's something fun to look forward to each week
-New friends
-Greater Confidence

When you learn kung fu you are learning an art, and you will gain deeper fulfillment than by weight training or playing a sport.  Through determination and patience you will achieve something that few have.

3.  Is Gung Fu training for Adults?
A:  All serious martial arts were developed by adults, for adults. Kids programs are usually meant to teach important life skills while laying the foundation for real training. Some great martial artists start at a young age, but it is never required.

4.  Does Centerline offer kids classes? 
A: Centerline Martial Arts Instructors are available to teach children's Gung-Fu and Kickboxing at community centers, but we do not offer a regular program at the studio. Contact us to inquire about setting up a kid's program in your community, or try this link if you are looking for kid's karate in the Hartford area: Giroux Bros Martial Arts

5.  What styles do you teach?
A: We do not teach any one style.  Jeet Kune Do incorporates techniques and skill sets used by many styles, but embraces the underlying principles without being chained down by classical training. 

6. Are there traditional elements to training, like Kata (forms)?
A:  We maintain certain values associated with traditional martial arts, and emphasize the value of GOOD FORM. But we do not use choreographed forms as a training tool.

7.  How much does it cost to train at Centerline?
A:  The value of martial arts training is not quantifiable.  However, the cost to  train with us is about as much as your daily cup of coffee.  Please contact us for specific information regarding membership options.

8.  What training equipment do I need?
A:  Most of the equipment you’ll need for training is owned by the school and available during class.  This includes focus mitts, kicking shields, jump ropes, etc.  Eventually you will need to purchase your own sparring gear (gloves, mouthguard, headgear, and cup). Shinguards are highly recommended.

9.  What do I wear to class?
A:  Simply wear comfortable workout clothes to class.  It is required that students purchase a Centerline T-shirt to wear to class within the first month of training.

10.  How can I find out if Centerline is a good fit for me?
A:  Come down and try a week for free!  You have nothing to lose, and much to gain.
