David Hodge
Internal Kungfu

David started martial arts at the age of nine with Judo and over the years has trained in Hapkido, Aikido, and Ninjitsu. He started Beijing Tai Chi and Kung Fu Academy in October of 2006 with Ba Gua and Yang Tai Chi. He soon began to participate in competitions which increased his focus and drive to learn more. David has since earned 33 medals and trophies, certificates in Tai Chi, Ba Gua, and Xing Yi, and a black sash in internal martial arts in less than three years. He has always enjoyed the physical and mental aspects of martial for the workouts and as a way of personal expression, "When you think you have done all you can, you can still do a little more." David continues to practice the internal arts, but also trains in other disciplines such as Sanda and ground fighting.
