First hand experience is the best way to learn a new skill or to hone an existing ability. The Dragon Tour conducted by Amir Academy of Martial Arts uses this principle to maximize the educational quality behind the Academy’s training. Grand Master Amir Ardebily organizes yearly trips to the Far East to meet with some of the greatest martial arts masters in the world, including Master Du Yung who is presently the highest-ranking Shaolin Monk in the world. Last year the Dragon Tour visited the Shaolin Temple and the world famous martial arts school therein to study Wu Shu and Chinese martial arts fighting techniques. For pictures you can click on the photo gallery for the Shaolin Tour. For the year of 2007, the Dragon Tour is planning to visit Bangkok, Thailand. In Thailand the students of Amir Academy of Martial Arts will study Muay Thai kickboxing and some of the most well respected forms and techniques in the world of martial arts. Those who participate in the Dragon Tour experience a life-changing event and gain knowledge that will be retained for a lifetime.
