Coaches

I have been practicing multiple martial arts for over 25 years now. For the past 18 years, Kungfu have become a very big part of my life and in my personal development. in 2022 I received the title of Shifu in Long Fist and Praying Mantis kungfu (Grandmaster Gao lineage) under the guidance of Shifu Lo. Besides kungfu, I have many years of experience in a.o. Shotokan karate (2nd degree black belt) and judo (brown belt) as well as full contact styles such as Sanda and MMA. 

Together with Shifu Lo I teach Kung Fu for Kids, which is a pre-Kung Fu class for children of 6 to 8 years. The children learn a.o. the sun-moon greeting and some chinese words. Typical basic Kung Fu movements are taught in a playfull manner through animal movements, inspired by the famous Kung Fu Panda movies. Social skills, treating others with respect while at the same practicing some resilience, are all topics that are addressed during these classes. 

At the end of every class, we quiet down with a short meditation moment.
The class is then terminated with a sun-moon greeting.
