Shihan Joe Gangi has established himself as one of the most respected and sought after instructors in the area of self-defense. His work with U.S. Customs Agents, U.S. Marines and various police agencies has proven his self-defense systems to be extremely effective. The system he has developed, Gangi's Kung-Fu System, offers you a form of martial arts which is eclectic by nature. It is a blending of old and new that gives the student the best of both traditional and modern martial arts.

Gangi's Kung Fu System

Gangi's Kung Fu System incorporates hand, kicking, blocking and grappling techniques, along with wrist locks and throws. This will allow the student to be comfortable and competent in any self-defense situation. Both circular and linear movements; as well as soft and hard techniques, are incorporated into the student's training, to make Gangi's Kung Fu System a truly well rounded system. With the discipline of forms, the technical applications of sparring, and above all, a self defense system which has been proven to be highly effective on the street. Remember, the primary purpose of any martial art should be sound, effective self defense. Don't be left unprepared to defend yourself or your loved ones because you've been given a false sense of security due to improper and inadequate martial arts training.
