The Kung Fu We Teach

Hung Gar Kuen (洪拳): Hung Gar is one of the most popular styles of Kung Fu in Southern China. It is well known for its low wide stances and rock hard forearms. All the motion starts from the ground which transfers energy all the way to the rest of your body. This is the complete exertion of force which is trained by developing a strong root and connection of every body part.

Shaolin Kung Fu (少林功夫): The main Shaolin Kung Fu style we are teaching is the The Northern Shaolin's Five Blossom Kicks (少林五花腿). The Shaolin Five Blossom Kicks (少林五花腿) style is a practical and fast striking form of Chinese Kung Fu, developed by the Shaolin monks in the Songshan Shaolin Monastery hundreds of years ago. Its moves are known in the pugilistic world as agile and swift as it is derive from the Northern Shaolin's Monkey Fist.

Traditional Chinese Weapons (兵器): The 18 weapons of China (十八班兵器) refer to the wide variety of weapons used by the Chinese military and people in ancient times. They are the saber, the sword (rapier), the spear, the staff, the bow, the axe, the halberd, the trident, the rake, the club, the mace, the hammer, the hook & etc. Each weapon has its own history, and its unique handling method. The purpose of the weapon is unique to each of them.

Qigong Training (气功): The style of qigong taught by our school originates from Shaolin Kung Fu. It consists of Shaolin Eight Pieces of Brocade (Ba Duan Jin) and Dragon qigong. They are generally meant for improving health, but also serve to boost a Kung Fu practitioner’s ability greatly.

Our Martial Arts Training Philosophy

Since 1960s, China systematically formalized many styles of Kung Fu, remaking & rebranding them as a demonstrative sport known as wushu or contemporary wushu. This demonstrative sport is practiced much like gymnastics with little or no combat capability at all. In our school, we only train Traditional Chinese Martial Arts or Kung Fu, NOT wushu.

Our Kung Fu training ensures that over time, all our students attain combat-ready martial arts competency just like our forefathers, so that it becomes a useful life skill to possess to help ourselves and others. We greatly emphasize practicing martial arts for its original purpose - to be able to use in combat or self-defense situations. Through discipline and training, students will also gain immensely from its health and mental benefits.

We insist on training our trainees from the basics to ensure they have a rock-solid foundation before moving on to training the more complex combat techniques and forms, as a person will risk injuries if they perform combat moves without a good foundation. We believe a martial arts practitioner should not only practice martial arts routines but must be able to react in self-defense situations by applying the techniques in the forms they have learned.
