Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth.
I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.
For I came to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother.
A man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.

(Jesus of Nazareth)

The intermediate syllabus is about strengthening the fundamentals and extending the scope of their abilities considerably.

Highlights:

1. 13 postures
2. Chin na applications/misplacing the bones
3. Countering a knife
4. Dying ground (intermediate)
5. Form application
6. Freeform grappling
7. Massage
8. Yang Cheng Fu form (sections 2 & 3)

The curriculum is extensive and thorough.

There are five grades within the intermediate syllabus: orange, green, yellow, blue and red.
