What kind of philosophy is taught?
Mainly, there are two types of philosophy that we teach: a. General philosophy: This deals with overall development — that is, honesty, high moral character, self-discipline, respect for others and self, humility, and patience. b. Martial arts philosophy: How to judge a situation, when to fight, when not to fight, how to fight, where to hit, with what to hit, with what kind of weapons to defend, what to do against multiple assailants, and many other points of strategy. What does ranking in Cuong Nhu represent? Color belts denote the level of ability and indicate the rank of the wearer. Our rank levels start with the beginner, who wears the white belt. There are one and two green stripe levels attained before the green belt, which is achieved after approximately one year’s training. Next are two levels of brown stripes, the brown belt, followed by two levels of black stripes, and the black belt. Our Cuong Nhu levels each tell a story. Earning the ranks is as the life cycle of a tree. T
