It's hard to know where to begin with a place like this. It's so much more than the sum of its…read moreparts. The training space is alive with over 50 years of history. You can feel it when you practice. Everyone involved has their own unique approach to the source material, which is very authentic and old fashioned. The Kung Fu styles taught are Choi Lee Fut and Do Pi, both southern styles brought directly from China by the late founder. There are also classes to learn san shou if you're more interested in a modern fighting style. But this isn't a place to learn the most modern techniques and become a prize fighter. It's a place to connect to a community of fantastic people, and to be a part of the preservation of a rich and interesting history. The school is also not-for-profit, so your low monthly fees only go to keeping the place running, no one is paid for their services to the school. All the instructors teach because it is important to them, and you can tell when you're there. As someone with a background in another kind of martial art that's much more business oriented and profit driven, I want to say that it makes a huge difference when something is driven by real human passion rather than money. Joining this school has been one of the most enjoyable decisions I've ever made, and I intend to be a part of it for as long as it's around and I'm able.

I have never had a better work out in my life (that is how I felt after the warm-up, so you can only imagine what a full training session is like). Of course, it offers much more than exercise: I find the sessions help me to focus in other parts of my life, to let go of negative emotions and to feel empowered. The Dojo is a comfortable place with a varied schedule available, and it's great value for money (a membership where you can train as much as you want, and which they will put on hold whilst you are away - if you travel a lot for instance). Bonus: Do a try-out session for free!
