Kwong Kow Chinese School is excited to announce that we will be collaborating with the Rose Kennedy Greenway Conservancy to host FREE martial arts fitness classes for adults!
Intro to Hung Gar Kung Fu
Our FREE 1-hour traditional Hung Gar martial arts class features a structured and routine training program which develops mastery of techniques.
Classes begin with warm-up exercises, followed by a series of drills that are designed to build strength, flexibility, and coordination. Drills may include striking, kicking, blocking, and combinations of movements.
The goal of our class is to establish strong foundations in the fundamentals of Traditional Hung Gar, so students can progress to more advanced techniques and sparring in the future.
Class Instructor
Henry Yu
Accumulating 10+ years of experience in Chinese Kung Fu and 7+ years in competition has been a truly transformative journey. I have dedicated countless hours to perfecting my techniques and pushing my limits in order to excel in my craft.
Studying the Hung Gar style has been particularly rewarding for me as it emphasizes strong stances, powerful strikes, and effective use of the entire body. In addition to the physical benefits, I have learned important values such as discipline, perseverance, and respect for oneself and others.
Class Schedule
Each session will cover new techniques, and offer two 1-hour class options (12–1PM or 1–2PM). However, you are NOT required to attend all sessions or classes. Pick the dates & times work best for you!
