What are our Students and Classes like?

Our members come from a variety of countries, cultures and traditions. The teaching language is French; nevertheless the instructor at the Brussels club also speaks Dutch, English and German. The Brussels club has a large proportion of women attending the training sessions; children are also welcome. Classes begin with a warm-up to prepare the body for kung fu. This always includes cardiovascular, strengthening and stretching exercises, and may also involve chi-gung breathing techniques. We then teach the basic techniques of our system, including traditional Chinese classical forms and sequences.

The classes enable students to discover and experience their physical 'centre', and as in traditional Chinese martial arts, students often train in pairs, in order to understand the correct application of each movement. With regular training the student will quickly feel the benefits of the training, not only in terms of physical fitness and flexibility, but also for improved coordination, better technique and increased self confidence.

You are welcome to come at any time and try a class. Just come in loose trousers and a plain T-shirt. No special footwear is needed, although if you wish to train in suitable (light) shoes you may. Changing rooms and showers are at your disposal. You are welcome at any time, whether to train or just to come and watch. We look forward to meeting you.
