Yes, it is primarily sanshou. The reason I ended up choosing this dojo, is because they train harder, and are pushed further than any other dojo I've seen. There are jiu jitsu classes about three times a week, which are taught by someone else. Most of the high powered stuff is done in Cung's sanshou team (competition team). I'm not on the team yet since I just joined; you're required to be there for at least three-four months before being eligible for the team, which is invitation only. Though I do stay after and watch them, and how they train. Cung has them do alot of full contact sparring, and excessive training/drills. I was amazed by the amount of training they did, even in the regular classes. They have a boxing ring, a full gym in the back, tons of punching/speed bags, and lots of training equipment. They alow students to train in those areas after around 8:30-10 pm freely, which is great. The classes for the basic students involves almost non-stop calisthenics, cardio, and drills. I find myself feeling rubbery when I get home. The sanshou team does alot of grappling/ground fighting, I'd guess conservatively three-four hours a week. Many of the team's members are mid-high ranking in jiu jitsu, as they are required to participate in most of the jiu jitsu classes. I was surprised to find one of the fight team's members recently won a gold medal in a national wushu championship. Mr. Le's skill as a MMA competitor definately pour over into his school.

Thanks for the luck, I'll need it.
