Description
Shaolin Kung Fu is a martial art that originates from China and focuses on the traditional disciplines developed thousands of years ago at the temple of Henin. Hung Kuen (meaning 'Family' and 'Fist') was developed in Malaysia. There are five animals that Hung Kuen Kung Fu derives its technique from: The Dragon: develops spirit, close range techniques, evasions and grasping techniques. The Tiger: develops power, upper attacks and striking pressure points. The Leopard: develops speed and multiple strikes to the opponent. The Snake: develops 'sticking' (to trap and control opponents) and strikes to soft muscle tissues. The White Crane: develops deflections, facilitates a variety of blocking techniques and demobilising opponents using pressure points. Dragon, Tiger and Leopard consists of hard and solid movements. Snake and White Crane consist of soft movements. The classes involve an initial warm up followed by a practice of attack, defence and stance techniques. We also work on learning an animal form ( a series of movements) each academic year. We also provide the chance to do sparring training. Students are given the option to train for the annual Hung Kuen tournament held at Oldham to compete with forms and/or sparring with other university Hung Kuen groups. There we will win medals, and if we are lucky, the national Hung Kuen trophy. Students will be given the option to learn a grading syllabus to achieve a series of belts from yellow to black. Classes are instructed by Master Ang Kee Kong: a 10th Dan Black belt. Beginners are welcome, and please feel free to bring along your university friends! You can also expect to make more friends at the club itself. We will be encouraging socials and a drink after training in CH1. Facilitated by a new committee made of students like you!
