ADULTS KUNG-FU
A brief description of our Adult Internal Kung-Fu
SELF-DEFENCE COURSE:
Adults Internal Kung-fu [16 Yrs+] - Wu Chi Chuan (Limitless or Formless Fist) > Limitless fist means it has no fixed techniques, yet all techniques can blend and integrate as one to form a practical and successful application. This system combines the Three Self-defensive Combative Themes as one and has No Limits (Limitless Fist) to varying combinations.
Choosing the Internal Kung-Fu course over our Tai Chi course, is a great choice if you want to learn more of the combative aspect of our Kung-Fu System, however, doing our Tai Chi Chuan course together with our Internal Kung-Fu system will act as a supplement to your Internal Kung-Fu training and vice versa.

"Wu Chi Chuan" is our primary Kung-Fu Self-Defence System and is more than just a martial art, it is a life/ martial art which means you get to enjoy the best of both worlds.
What does this exactly mean, well lets just say it teaches an amazing self-defence system that benefits not only your combat skills but your health and well being at the same time. Fitness and physical prowess is not required as much as the external styles do, in fact, in advance levels the physical prowess is hardly required at all. Yes, this means you could be an older person or a person less physically stronger than another, or just not so physically strong but healthy and robust, still possessing martial/ life art skills.
This is one of the benefits you can receive from practicing the "Internal" martial arts as opposed to the external martial arts. Please do not be mistaken as true Internal systems do create martial power, just not in the same way as external systems do. Also, the Internal martial art component of the system is complementary to the life art component of the system and vice versa.
Other benefits that you would experience while using the Internal system for the combat training and applications, would be the ability to train in a much safer environment, starting slowly and gently and progressing to faster, more stronger and powerful techniques, while focusing on being efficient and effective along all of the way.
Utilising less power and energy, results in making you more resilient and efficient upon your martial application delivery. Above all, your martial skills can develop a quality that harmonises your mind and body, to express subtle, connected movements of the body for executing unseen power and technique creating an element of surprise, and unlike external martial arts both defence and offense are merged into one making you exceptionally fast to respond to an attack. Another trait specific to the internal martial art system, is in neutralising physical power and controlling an opponents energetic centre.
Wu Chi Chuan also includes all the main themes and modalities of any martial art system, the three main martial art themes; Offensive, Defensive and Regulation themes. Also, all offensive themes are covered, Striking, Seizing and Controlling or Throws and Takedowns, as well as multiple Defence models against all the Offensive themes. In other words you don't have to cross train with other systems to learn any of the missing themes your system may have. A stop shop for all your martial/ life art needs.
OUR KUNG-FU SYSTEM - WU CHI CHUAN
Wu Chi Chuan (Limitless Fist) is an Internal Kung-Fu Self-Defence System that encompasses both the empty hand practices as well as weaponry. The basic level of Self-defence empty hand practice consists of 3 Themes, the Offensive, Defensive and Regulating Themes. Each Theme is further broken down into its specific modules that are taught independently at first and later integrated to come together and form a complete system. There are five offensive and five defensive modules with 3 regulating modules to complete. There is also a grading system based on both attendance and gradings. The grading system has 4 levels to reach a Black Sash, curriculum and grading sashes for each level will be discussed later.
The Weaponry course consists of 5 major weapons that develop 5 specific patterns much the same with the themes and modules of the empty hand practice that can also be integrated and form a complete weaponry system. There are also 4 categories of weapons consisting of Short, Long, Loose and Improvised weapon.
The Wu Chi Chuan system empowers all its practitioners through its efficient and effective strategic moves and methods. It maintains the principals and foundations of the original ancient Kung-fu ways, which was regarded and intended as a Life/ Martial Art Kung-Fu System, the old school of thought for Kung-fu. Based on the Nei Jar (Internal System), this old school of thought, originated and borrows its foundations, principles and concepts from the practical aspects of the Daoist philosophy over 5000 years ago.
The concept of the Wu Chi Dao (The Way of No Way), in conjunction with the Dao's other philosophical concepts such as the 5 Elements (Wu Hsing), 8 Changes (Pa Kua) and the 2 Universal Equal Opposite Complimentary Forces (Yin Yang), were all used as part of its life/ martial arts science to develop the art, as well as teach and apply its unique methodology.
MASTER'S PROGRAM
The master's program is an advanced curriculum for students that have completed their black sash program. It is an extensive program which explores the subtleties and deeper aspects of the "8 Ultimate Fist Methods". The Concepts, philosophy and Science all come together as one complete system with an invaluable source of knowledge and skill that can assist you in many ways having a lifelong lasting effect, developing knowledge and wisdom. The ultimate goal is to complete the curriculum become a Sifu that is capable of understanding and continuing to refine their own Kung Fu as a true Martial/Life Art.
Each student may complete each Module of the 8 Ultimates within 1 to 3 years but this is just a guide and each student within the Masters Program will have different time frames and outcomes. The Master's curriculum is extremely flexible so as to accommodate the individual's development into a teachers level, to become a Sifu, each student must thoroughly understand the principles and concepts of our system, which could vary from student to student. In the old school of "Internal" systems, internalising the system to your own self-understanding is to develop your own Kung Fu, becoming a Master of yourself first and ultimately as a default a master of your own Kung-Fu. Hence the Kung-fu saying "One must master themselves before mastering others"!
