What is Wu Shu Kwan®
Chinese
Boxing, commonly known in the West as practical Kung Fu, is the oldest name used
by the Westerners to describe the systematic and effective Chinese art of
self-defence when they encountered, and were fascinated by, what they saw. With
the advent of the word kickboxing, Chinese Kickboxing rather than
Chinese Boxing has become the preferred terminology. Chinese Kickboxing is
indeed a traditional martial art and not boxing where two prize-fighters
with gloves and in shorts are fighting in a ring.
The aim of Chinese Kickboxing is to progressively train your body as well as
your mind to achieve positive health and to acquire effective skill to defend
yourself successfully at all times. Chinese Kickboxing is the art of total
self-defence.
Training with various weapons will be taught only to the more advanced students
who have already acquired a solid grounding.
History
Chinese
Kickboxing had been practiced by the Chinese for many thousands of years
and was the result of the wisdom of the ancient Chinese to react, in the
main, to vital military and serious survival requirements at that time.
Many temples in China, including the famous Shaolin Temple, had played a
part in the development and spreading of Chinese Kickboxing, which is
the forerunner of all other forms of martial arts in the East.
Beginners
Beginners are most welcome. Whenever you are ready to start, there is
always a beginners' course available each week. You will find the
training challenging, exciting and enjoyable; before long, you will be
amazed at your progress under proper guidance and you wish you had
started sooner. You will make a lot of friends too. Give it a go. Very
often, making up your mind is indeed much more difficult that the actual
training itself.
