Our Classes
WE HAVE SOMETHING TO OFFER EVERYONE
Kung Fu Foundations
Kung Fu Foundations offers a more traditional and disciplined approach to martial arts, catering specifically to individuals seeking the classical route of kung fu training. This contact class focuses on honing foundational skills essential for mastering the art and is our entry point for those wanting to make their way through our Kung Fu Belt Grading System.
Kung Fu Hustle
Kung Fu Hustle is Kung Fu's version of Boxercise, prioritising fitness & well-being over traditional elements like belts and gradings. The non-contact class delivers a dynamic fitness experience centered around fun, free-flowing Kung Fu hitting combos, that build up in intensity throughout the class. The emphasis is on self-discovery and personal growth, making it more than a workout routine, and will leave you with a real sense of achievement.
Tai Chi Easy
Tai Chi Easy offers a unique approach to Tai Chi that emphasises the refinement of fundamental single postures rather than learning long, classical forms. The core principles of the class revolve around promoting relaxation, cultivating proper body structure, mastering controlled breathing, establishing a deep mind-body connection, and achieving a state of mental tranquillity.
Qigong
Yin and Yang Qigong classes are a diverse range of practices, offering participants the opportunity to explore both Yin and Yang styles. Each style is tailored to specific goals, whether it's cultivating relaxation, softness, and health in the Yin-based classes or focusing on strength, vitality, and martial applications in the Yang-based classes.
Flex
Based on the expertise of Kit Laughlin, creator of the Stretch Therapy™ system, our Flex classes also utilise methods from Chinese Dao Yin, Japanese Sotai and meridian stretches to improve your posture, flexibility and range of motion.
Kickboxa
Kickboxa seamlessly combines fitness kickboxing, high-intensity interval training (HIIT), Tactfit and core-strengthening exercises, in a circuit style dynamic fitness class filled with bag striking. Workouts are suitable for all fitness levels.
