Kids Kung-Fu

Martial arts training that supports growing children

Our Kids Kung-Fu programme helps children develop confidence, coordination, focus and respect in a positive class environment.

Students learn age-appropriate self-defence, healthy boundaries, discipline and kindness through the three core aims of traditional Kung-Fu:

Northern Shaolin Long Fist

Northern Shaolin Long Fist helps children develop coordination, balance, leg strength and body control through dynamic movement.

Training includes open postures, kicking, footwork and structured forms taught at an age-appropriate pace.

Hong Family Fist

Hong Family Fist gives young students a strong foundation in stance work, focus, controlled power and practical movement.

The style draws on animal methods such as tiger, crane, snake, leopard and dragon, helping children connect imagination with disciplined practice.
