Kung Fu Training for Adults
As this particular style Shiyong Kung Fu is not based on strength, size or body weight, adult classes start from the age of 13. You do not have to be super fit or be able to do acrobatics.
Kicks are at low level to maintain balance and stability which also helps the more mature students amongst us.
You will use exercises to develop flexibility, speed, stamina, strength, fluidity, mental discipline along with courtesy and respect not only for fellow students and instructors but also to respect the skills you are gaining and what you are capable of.
Contact us to book in for your free taster session which will involve a 1-2-1 induction with a qualified instructor.
Loose clothing to be worn.
