Our Training Principles

PictureFok Dei technique
Our Kung Fu instruction follows 4 key principles that must be trained in unison  for maximum effectiveness:

Form:  Proper form is key to unlocking natural power and protecting your joints and ligaments. It also unlocks the application that each technique was intended for. You will benefit from our understanding of Chinese medicine and Massage Therapy which both lead to improved structural integration.

Function:  One of the best parts of Kung Fu's legacy is its applications.  Our training is 100% hands on and you do not move forward until you have a firm understanding of what each technique is for and how to apply it. We do not teach magical moves but there is a magical way to move.  It is important that your self-confidence comes from knowing your Kung Fu actually works. 

Power:  This follows good form. In Kung Fu, power is often referred to as jing, which is generated through breath and combining the power your entire body into your strike or kick. You learn pre-set routines called forms, or kuen in Cantonese, to teach your body how to move properly. These forms serve as your encyclopedia of knowledge. Through repetition  over time, your power will improve. Without power, your Kung Fu cannot reach its full potential or come to life.  Without power, it is difficult to exert enough force to stop a larger and stronger opponent. There are no weight classes or sparring gear to protect you on the streets. Furthermore, one of the unique aspects of our system is our focus on pressure point striking which is enhanced when you apply the right amount of power. For this reason, we do not train with boxing gloves.

Philosophy:   Your character and intentions are what determine how far you will go as a martial artist and as a person. As a non-profit, we do not discriminate on the basis of anything but if we accept you as a student you are expected to follow our Code of Ethics and Martial Virtues. We are not teaching you dangerous techniques so you can bully others or misuse Kung Fu for your personal gain.  Three Treasures is a high integrity organization that follows the original meaning of what Kung Fu Martial Virtue was meant for.

This is our schedule for new and beginner students. As you improve, you will be invited to higher level classes that are not on here. 

Rules For Visiting

Sifu Du values the short amount of time his students and staff can devote to training therefore it's only fair that he remain as devoted to his current students as possible. Out of respect we ask that you contact us via email or voice mail so we can set up a time to talk to you privately about your goals before inviting you to come see our training. Please read the expectations on our Registration Process page. These expectations are meant to protect the harmony of the school and pass down good training habits.

Q & A About the Kung Fu

  1. Do You Do Contracts?  We do not use contracts. We feel if you enjoy the training and are getting value out of it, that is enough to maintain your loyalty to us. 
  2. Do You Allow Cross Training With Other Schools? Only Sifu's direct students are allowed to cross-train with other schools. This is considered an honor as well as a big responsibility. Regular students are not allowed due to them possibly not understanding proper protocol. We want to avoid possible conflict with other schools. 
  3. Who Is Allowed to Teach Your Kung Fu Classes? Sifu Du is the only instructor at Three Treasures. He is sometimes assisted by experienced students who train directly with him.
  4. ​What Is Your Loyalty Policy? We feel loyalty should work both ways. Quality training does not need to be expensive. We are committed to never raising your current rates for as long as you are a current student.The longer you train with us, the better the value. 
  5. Do You Teach Ground Fighting?     Many Kung Fu and Karate schools will use the words "ground fighting" to make you believe you will learn Jiu Jitsu. We cross train and learn from Primal Jiu Jitsu in Mira Mesa and we recommend them if you are looking for a deeper understanding of ground fighting. 
  6. What's the difference between self-defense and sport fighting?  On the streets, there are no rules and it is a highly different mental stress when you are attacked without warning versus having months to prepare for a tournament and knowing you probably won't die because of those rules, referee and sparring gear. The flexibility of what we teach is you can take our self-dense techniques and apply them to sport fighting. But oftentimes, sport fighting is impractical for self-defense or lack the well-rounded curriculum you may need.
