Class Overview
We at the Lau Gar Kung Fu Academy offer a balanced approach to our lessons in as much as a comprehensive warm-up and stretching routine prior to the more vigorous training exercises.
Classes are suited for men, women and children (from aged 7 upwards).

Kids class: 7-14
This session is geared towards the younger members of the academy and focuses on development of self-confidence, discipline and of course self-defence. The student will be taught the Lau Gar syllabus but at the same time we endeavour to make these sessions fun to maintain interest and to ensure they enjoy the experience whilst learning the art.

Adults
At the Academy, professionalism is maintained at all times. All students will start by learning the basics ie. Stance work, basic blocks and strikes. As this is the foundation of all Martial Arts and the importance of this is maintained throughout all of the sessions be it at beginner, intermediate or advanced. The Student will be guided through the Lau Gar syllabus and this will involve:
-Stance work
-Various hand strikes
-Numerous self-defence techniques
-Kicking techniques
-Sparring
-Tai Chi (optional)
-Traditional Weaponry
-Chi Kung and Meditation

The sessions run for 1 hour but as the student progresses through the belt system the training intensifies and this can last from the normal 1hour session for up to 3 hours. This can be done at either of the academy’s schools throughout the locality.

Private Tuition
We offer personal one to one tuition. This will help you advance more quickly in the development of your martial art training be it sparring forms or fitness.
These lessons are to be booked in advance. Whether you are attending a mainstream class or not you can access this service by arranging an appointment with the instructor. Lessons taught:
- Traditional Kung Fu
- Tai Chi Chuan
- Self Defence
- Chi Kung and Meditation


Seminars
Periodically the academy organises seminars on the following:
- Short Stick
- Chi Kung Meditation
- Pushing Hands
- Fighting Techniques
- Self Defence
- Traditional Weaponry

These courses are offered to all students at the academy from beginner to advanced (unless otherwise stated)
The main object of these seminars is to intensify one particular aspect of the style. This will help the student develop and understand the concepts even more.

Tai Chi
Students from Green sash above learn Yang Style Tai Chi. This is practical in our mainstream classes for the improvement of relaxation and at the same time to gain a deeper understanding of Yin-Yang within their training program. Classes are also offered separately to those who want to learn Tai Chi only and not Kung Fu.
