Why Train with us?
Our courses include both hard and soft Kung Fu and Qigong, examine the history, traditions, ethos, culture and philosophy of real Kung Fu and include practical down to Earth training on how to teach, how to lead people and ‘people skills’. Experienced teachers know that these skills are the ones which will make or break you as a teacher!
Our Retreat is unlike anything else that you are likely to have experienced: why settle for anything less? This is going to be more than just a course, it is going to be an experience which will change your life-path and which you will remember for the rest of your life.
Our certificates are the best! We cut no corners and have spared no expense in creating what we genuinely believe are the best certificates that we could make. Because we believe that the graduates from our courses are the best and they deserve the best.
Why now?
Grandmaster Tan was famous for saying that to succeed in Kung Fu you need only do two things: start - and not give up! It is also said that the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago - the second best time is today. If you don’t start now, when will you start?
