Kung Fu Beginner Classes
The beginner classes are designed to introduce you to multiple aspects of Choy Lee Fut Kung Fu and give you a solid skill foundation to start benefiting from the system’s initial stancework, hand techniques and kicks and their applications.
- Mondays 6:00pm – 7:00pm
- Wednesdays 6:00pm – 7:00pm
Benefits of our kung fu training:
- Regular exercise at the level of intensity that suits you
- Strength, flexibility and agility
- Mental focus, stamina and confidence
- Practical self-defence and fighting skills
- Improved health and fitness
- Be part of a rich cultural tradition that goes back to the monastic practices of the Shaolin temple
This class does not have any pre-requisites and are tailored to all adult students regardless of your level of fitness or physical ability. Your instructor will discuss with you how the training can be modified to suit your needs.
Beginner classes include:
- Warm ups and basic stretches
- Basic stance training
- Basic technique combinations
- Basic kicks
- Basic fist forms. Beginner class students learn Ng Lun Ma (Five Wheel Fist) to train the basic stances, transitions, blocks and methods of power generation. They then learn Ng Lun Choy (Five Wheel Fist) to add punches to the basic stancework.
Students will typically train the beginners class for at least 1-2 years before advancing to the intermediate class, however many of our students find the beginners class alone is suitable enough for their needs.
