This course is UNIQUE – designed and produced solely for us and the promotion of ‘The Last Airbender’

A Marshall Arts ‘master’ – top of his field - is a Vietnamese expert, coming from the renowned Marshal Arts retreat of Ky Son in Hoi An

For each prize package, our master will travel to the winners hotel and host a bespoke “last airbender” training session each morning of their stay

The course will cover introductory skills and techniques in the four key disciplines – airbending, firebending, waterbending and earthbending

Bending is done by manipulation of chi, or "life force".  It is debated what chi actually is, but one of the most common theories is that it is energy that causes

neuron activity (In other words, the human body has "wires" that connect different body parts to the brain.  These are the pathways that chi flows

through).  Most chi pathways run along major bones in the body, connecting the limbs to the spinal cord.  The spine is the main pathway of the nervous system.

It's controlled by energy, chi, that flows through mainly the legs and upper arms, as well as the hands, and is often accompanied by strong, stable movements of the arms and legs as a

sort of catalyst”
