Even though I had no experience with Kung Fu before coming to this school, but within 1 month I learned enough to have a clear basic view of Kung Fu in China. I think the classes are well distributed throughout the week and through the day. It’s also nice that you can choose the styles that you want to do so you can either enhancing your main style or have experiences in another styles. Personally, I found the forms classes the most fun since you can really learn a lot in a short period of time, and for the beauty aspect of the forms I liked it the most.

Our mantis master is very skilled and knows a lot about the subject. The classes were a lot of fun, but besides having a laugh once in a while, there were also serious moments to work on your basics, forms, etc. Sometimes the amount of students was a lot, but you could always ask the older students for help if something wasn’t clear. The amount of effort you want to put into your training is almost completely up to you, although I do feel like the Master should’ve pushed us more sometimes to train more and harder.

Nonetheless, it was a great month.
