The group drew influence from Asian culture and Asian martial arts, notably the acrobatics of Jackie Chan such as "qinggong" displays in his Hong Kong action films, and the training philosophy of Bruce Lee, considering the latter to be the "unofficial president" of their group. The group also drew influence from the Japanese shōnen manga and anime series "Dragon Ball", inspired by how the heroes attained extraordinary abilities through hard work, as well as the martial arts films of Belgian actor Jean-Claude Van Damme.
