The legacy school

of martial arts

At the Legacy School of Martial Arts, we are guided by a clear but deeply meaningful mission. Our first goal is to preserve the knowledge and traditions of the martial arts styles we teach—many of which are rooted in ancient history and carry the cultural and philosophical treasures of their countries of origin. By offering both online learning and personal coaching, we aim to make these powerful systems more accessible, ensuring they are not lost to time and that more students can experience their depth and value.

Our second goal is to embrace a dual approach to teaching. On one hand, we are committed to passing on each martial system in its pure, traditional form, exactly as it was taught to us. This preserves the integrity of the art and ensures that its original principles and philosophies continue to endure. On the other hand, we recognize that martial arts must also evolve with time and context. Just as combat situations change, so too must the way martial arts are applied and taught.

That’s why we at Legacy encourage, once a student has developed a solid foundation in the core systems, the thoughtful blending and adaptation of styles. This allows the art to grow with the practitioner, becoming a tool not just for self-defense, but for personal growth, wellness, and empowerment. In this way, martial arts remain living traditions—both timeless and timely, grounded in history yet responsive to the needs of the modern world.

It’s safe to say that my journey through martial arts has been long, rich, and deeply rewarding. With over thirty years of training and twenty-two years of teaching, martial arts has shaped not only my physical abilities but also my understanding of myself and those around me. I’ve come to believe that martial arts serve a fourfold purpose: to strengthen the body through physical training, to nourish the soul through deep philosophy, to sharpen the mind through knowledge, and, of course, to develop the skills needed to protect oneself. Each of these aspects holds equal value on the martial path.

Throughout my lifelong journey of learning, evolving, and rediscovering, one truth has always remained constant: the importance of a true teacher. It’s one thing to be skilled in martial arts—it’s another entirely to know how to teach it effectively. Teaching, to me, is an art form in itself—one I’ve studied and refined just as seriously as the systems I pass on. My goal has always been to help each student unlock the value of martial arts in a way that improves their life, both on and off the mat. There is no greater reward than witnessing that growth.

Our Martial Art systems From The East To The West

  • Splashing Hands Kung Fu

    Splashing Hands is a straightforward, high-speed fighting system built around the principle that a real fight should last no longer than 30 seconds. Every block, strike, and movement is designed to be explosive, efficient, and effective. It teaches you to strike first, recognizing danger as it emerges and ending it before it escalates.

    Using a unique blend of rapid-fire punches, knees, elbows, and dynamic kicks—alongside its signature power-generating shuffle footwork—Splashing Hands more closely resembles a combat boxing system than the more aesthetic styles often associated with Kung Fu. Yet it remains deeply rooted in traditional wisdom.

    In today’s world, self-defense is vital—but so is personal growth. Splashing Hands also offers a rich philosophical foundation, teaching lessons about the self, the universe, and the inner workings of the human body and mind. It will not only transform your ability to defend yourself but will also elevate your physical fitness, deepen your understanding of internal mechanics, and unlock spiritual insight.

  • Hsing-I Chuan Kung Fu

    Hsing-I Chuan—also known as Mind Boxing or Mind-Heart Chinese Boxing—is one of the three major internal systems of traditional Chinese Kung Fu. Originally developed as a spear-based combat art to defend China from Mongol invasions, it played a critical role in preserving the nation during a time of great threat. Over time, the system evolved into an empty-hand form of boxing, gradually expanding with additional forms and refinements.

    At its core, Hsing-I is built around five elemental movements and twelve animal forms, as well as a variety of combination forms. It is a system grounded in efficiency, rooted power, and the principle of ending a fight with a single, decisive strike. Practitioners learn to move fluidly, adapting their form until the perfect moment presents itself to unleash that single blow with maximum effect.

    In training, Hsing-I appears straightforward—linear movements practiced repeatedly to build muscle memory, strength, and focused power. But beneath this simplicity lies a deeper purpose. Hsing-I was designed to reflect and embody the forces of nature, both external and internal. It is, in essence, a physical expression of Taoist alchemy—a system that teaches not only martial application but also a profound connection to the body’s internal energy systems and the Five Element theory that forms the foundation of Chinese medicine.

    Practicing Hsing-I is more than learning to fight—it is a path to mastering your energy, understanding natural law, and transforming the self from the inside out.

  • Dragon Style Bagua Zhang - The Complete Course

    A Complete Internal Martial Arts System Rooted in Tradition and Revealed in Full for the First Time

    Welcome to the Dragon Style Bagua Zhang (Eight Trigram Palm) Course — a comprehensive and progressive training system that draws directly from ancient Taoist lineages, yet breaks new ground by unveiling higher-level teachings that have traditionally remained closed to outsiders.

    This is more than a martial arts course. It is a transformational journey into the heart of an internal system designed to cultivate energy, develop combat skill, and harmonize body, mind, and spirit.

    What is Dragon Style Bagua Zhang?

    Bagua Zhang (Pa Kua Chang) is one of the three major internal martial arts of China, alongside Tai Chi and Xingyi. Known for its unique circular walking, fluid turning palms, and mysterious internal power, Bagua is not merely a martial discipline — it is a Taoist alchemical practice for physical vitality, energetic development, and spiritual clarity.

    The Dragon Style of Bagua preserves these internal roots with precision and purity. In this course, you’ll walk the same circle as the ancient adepts — but with modern guidance to unlock your full potential.

  • Universal Boxing Kung Fu

    Universal Boxing, also known as Hsing-I Bagua Chuan, is the seamless union of two of the most profound internal martial arts: Hsing-I Chuan and Bagua Zhang. While Bagua teaches circular movement, evasive footwork, and deflecting techniques, Hsing-I focuses on direct, efficient, and powerful linear attacks. Combined, they form a dynamic system that enables the practitioner to move strategically around an opponent—creating openings through spiraling motion and then delivering a precise, devastating strike to end the confrontation swiftly.

    This system was passed down to me as a method of integrating the strengths of both arts: the rooted power and simplicity of Hsing-I, with the fluid, adaptable spirals of Bagua. Ideally, students would study both foundational systems first, as a deep understanding of each is invaluable. However, with dedicated instruction and commitment, Universal Boxing can also serve as a powerful gateway into learning both arts simultaneously.

    The name Universal Boxing reflects the deep philosophical roots of the system. Hsing-I and Bagua each express one half of the Taoist worldview. Hsing-I embodies the Five Elements and the principles of Chinese medicine, representing the heart and soul of both the individual and the natural world. Bagua reveals the structure of the universe, the flow of energy, and the nature of consciousness itself.

    Through their union, this art allows the practitioner to align with the greater harmony of existence—cultivating not only the ability to defend oneself, but also to evolve physically, mentally, and spiritually. In mastering Universal Boxing, you embark on a path toward understanding and becoming one with the universe—through body, mind, and spirit.

  • Chen Style Tai Chi Chuan Kung Fu

    Tai Chi Chuan, also known as Chen Taijiquan or The Grand Ultimate Fist, is one of the most revered treasures of Chinese internal martial arts. As the second-oldest form of Tai Chi in existence, Chen-style Tai Chi originated in Chen Village, developed by the Chen family during a time when martial arts were outlawed by imperial decree. To preserve their knowledge, the family encoded a highly effective fighting system within movements that, on the surface, appeared gentle and non-combative.

    Today, Tai Chi is widely recognized for its health benefits—promoting physical vitality, mental clarity, and emotional peace. However, its origins are deeply rooted in combat. Chen Tai Chi, in particular, was first and foremost a martial art, built on profound internal mechanics and battlefield-tested techniques. As the third jewel of China’s internal martial arts (alongside Hsing-I and Bagua), Tai Chi offers unparalleled skill in grounding, redirecting force, and generating explosive power through the body's connection to gravity and breath.

    At its core, the system trains the body to move as a single, integrated unit. Every joint and muscle is aligned to allow force to flow freely from hand to foot, enabling both solid defense and powerful attacks. This whole-body approach promotes not only martial efficacy but also exceptional physical health—making it ideal for building strength, flexibility, and longevity through a more relaxed and flowing training methodology.

    Chen-style is often considered the "hard" style of internal martial arts, marked by deep stances, connected transitions, and straight wrists that maintain continuous energy flow. Unlike Yang-style Tai Chi, which alternates between opening and closing energy gates in the body (with its signature bent wrist structure), Chen-style keeps all gates open, allowing constant circulation of Yin and Yang energies. This distinction gives Chen-style its reputation for dynamic power and full-body unity.

    More than just a martial art, Tai Chi Chuan is also a philosophical path. It teaches the harmony of Yin and Yang, the balance of mind and body, and the art of stillness in motion. Whether practiced for combat, wellness, or spiritual development, Chen-style Tai Chi offers a gateway to deeper self-awareness and a lasting connection to the natural world.

    A true treasure of the East, this system endures not only as a means of defense but as a lifelong practice for those seeking mastery of the body, mind, and spirit.

  • Pao Chui Tai Chi Chuan Kung Fu

    Chen Tai Chi Cannon Fist, or Pao Chui, is the powerful second form in the Chen Tai Chi system and often remains lesser known compared to the more widely practiced first form. While the first form lays the foundation for internal mechanics, alignment, and fluid movement, Cannon Fist builds upon this base—transforming that internal structure into explosive, dynamic expression.

    Cannon Fist is considered a highly advanced form of Tai Chi and is challenging to master, requiring both physical conditioning and deep understanding of internal energy. However, once attained, it unlocks an entirely new dimension of the art. This form blends the internal biomechanics developed in the first form with a range of vigorous, fast-paced movements that bring Tai Chi's martial applications to life.

    Though it may initially appear to lean more toward the combat aspect of the system, Cannon Fist is the natural evolution of the health-based practice—a manifestation of its latent power. It brings the subtle strength of the first form into full expression, revealing the hidden martial energy that lies beneath Tai Chi’s calm exterior.

    Featuring jumps, stamps, explosive punches, and powerful kicks, Cannon Fist is not only visually captivating but also a transformative tool for the practitioner. It teaches you to generate and issue force from within, using the entire body as a unified mechanism. Through its practice, you'll discover methods of power generation and body mechanics that are often overlooked in more conventional Chen or Yang Tai Chi styles.

    Whether your goal is to deepen your martial proficiency or unlock the energetic potential within your Tai Chi practice, Cannon Fist offers a profound and exhilarating next step on the internal path.

  • Poison Fingers Kung Fu

    Poison Fingers Boxing, also known as Tzu Men-Chuan, is a rare and highly specialized martial art developed in the later stages of Chinese history, during a time when Taoist and Buddhist philosophies began to merge. Known colloquially as the Spear System, this style is renowned for its direct, no-nonsense approach to combat—its techniques are as sharp and penetrating as the weapon it emulates.

    Originally designed purely for self-defense, Tzu Men-Chuan integrates internal principles that allow a smaller practitioner to overcome larger, stronger opponents. Using precise, straight-line attacks—delivered with the explosive force of a spear—this system aims to pierce through any defense and strike at key points on the body.

    At the heart of Poison Fingers Boxing is the art of targeting pressure points, drawing from traditional Chinese medicine and acupressure. Practitioners are trained to strike with fists or extended fingers, disrupting energy flow, dislocating joints, collapsing airways, or even breaking bones with pinpoint accuracy. These techniques require not just speed and precision, but a deep understanding of human anatomy and meridian pathways.

    This is not a system for the casual learner. Tzu Men-Chuan demands dedicated practice and mental discipline. You must develop tough, conditioned hands, a resilient and aligned body, and a sharp mind capable of memorizing and applying detailed knowledge of the body’s most vulnerable points.

    For those willing to commit, however, the rewards are exceptional. Poison Fingers Boxing offers a level of control, efficiency, and lethality that few systems can match—combining the ancient wisdom of the East with the practical effectiveness required in true self-defense.

  • Tien Gunn Kung Fu

    Discover a rare and powerful internal martial art that bridges the gap between ancient wisdom and modern practice. Tien Gunn, or the Celestial Stem System, is a concise yet profound method of internal martial training. Rooted in the classical internal styles of Kung Fu—Tai Chi, Hsing-I, and Bagua—this system has been carefully developed to serve as both a complete standalone discipline and a gateway into deeper traditional practices.

    Why Tien Gunn?

    In our school, Tien Gunn has long been used as a foundation for understanding the complex movements of internal martial arts. By simplifying the core mechanics found in styles like Tai Chi, Bagua, and Hsing-I, Tien Gunn provides practitioners with a clear, effective method to isolate and refine essential internal principles—like silk reeling, rooting, breath control, and whole-body power generation—in a more accessible form.

  • Tui Na & Chin Na Kung Fu

    Tui Na and Chin Na represent the dual forces of balance within traditional Chinese martial arts—destruction and healing, offense and recovery. Together, they form a complete system of understanding the human body through both combat and care.

    Chin Na, which translates to “seize and control,” is the martial application of this balance. Although it stands as a complete system in its own right, its principles can be integrated into virtually any fighting style. At its core, Chin Na is about mastering control over the opponent’s body through five key methods: breaking bones, tearing tendons, sealing airways, restricting blood flow, and disrupting internal energy.

    Using a range of locks, holds, joint manipulations, and takedowns, Chin Na gives a fighter the tools to end a confrontation quickly—often with precision techniques that escalate a basic punch or kick into something decisive and final. It's a powerful addition to any martial artist’s skill set, especially when a situation doesn’t unfold as planned.

    However, just as one learns to dismantle the body, the opposite skill must be cultivated—the ability to heal. This is where Tui Na comes in.

    Tui Na is the therapeutic counterpart, a traditional Chinese hands-on bodywork system used for adjusting the body, relieving pain, correcting misalignments, and restoring energetic balance. Often considered the root of many modern physical therapies, Tui Na has been practiced for over two thousand years and remains central in Chinese medicine today.

    By studying both Chin Na and Tui Na, a martial artist gains profound insight into how the body works—how it breaks, how it heals, and how to bring it back into harmony. In combat, this knowledge brings control and effectiveness. In life, it brings longevity, health, and wellbeing.

    Together, they form the yin and yang of martial understanding—where power is balanced by compassion, and where every strike is matched by the knowledge to heal.

  • Chi Kung Kung Fu

    Chi Kung, also known as Qigong or Chi Gong, is an ancient system of breath and movement exercises designed to cultivate energy, improve health, and enhance mental clarity. Rooted in traditional Chinese medicine and martial arts, Chi Kung focuses on harmonizing breath with gentle, flowing motion to stimulate internal energy (qi) and promote overall wellbeing.

    Simple in structure yet profound in impact, Chi Kung is accessible to practitioners of all levels—from advanced martial artists to individuals facing physical challenges or chronic pain. There are no barriers to entry: whether you’re highly active or new to movement practice, Chi Kung can improve your vitality, focus, and quality of life with consistent practice.

    At Legacy, we teach two primary forms of Chi Kung: Chen-style and Yang-style. Each system offers its own unique approach, but both deliver powerful results. These practices not only support physical health and flexibility, but also serve as a bridge between seated meditation and more complex internal martial forms, such as Tai Chi, Hsing-I, or Bagua.

    Chi Kung also plays an essential role in internal martial arts training—providing a focused way to work on breath control, energy flow, and structural alignment outside of the longer, more demanding sequences. Over time, this refined internal work enhances performance and understanding across all martial disciplines.

    While not originally designed as a combat art, many Chi Kung movements have self-defence applications, making them a valuable foundational practice.

    Historically, the roots of Chi Kung trace back to Bodhidharma, the Indian monk who brought early forms of movement and breathing practice to Taoist monasteries in China. Upon finding that the monks were becoming physically weak from long periods of stillness in meditation, he developed a system to restore vitality and build resilience, helping practitioners meditate longer and more effectively.

    Think of Chi Kung as the perfect starting point for internal development—a simplified, focused version of Tai Chi and an active evolution of seated meditation. It is a timeless practice that continues to heal, energize, and transform those who commit to its path.

  • Nine Chamber Fist Kung Fu

    Little Nine Heaven Boxing, also known as Nine Chamber Fist, is regarded as the pinnacle of Chinese internal martial arts. Deeply rooted in ancient tradition, this rare and sacred system has been passed down through generations, said to originate from Huang-Ti, the first Emperor of China.

    Unlike most martial systems, Little Nine Heaven is not just a fighting art—it is a complete and comprehensive discipline, encompassing Chinese wrestling (Shuai Jiao), grappling techniques, empty-hand and weapons forms, partner drills, internal cultivation practices, and profound philosophical teachings. It offers a path that integrates the physical, mental, and spiritual dimensions of martial practice into a unified whole.

    This system is reserved only for the most dedicated practitioners—those who have shown exceptional commitment, discipline, and a high level of personal growth. As such, entry into this system is not open to all. To even be considered for training in Little Nine Heaven, a student must have mastered at least three of the other internal systems taught within this school to a high level.

    Training in Nine Chamber Fist is by invitation only, serving as both an honour and a responsibility. Those chosen to learn this art are entrusted with preserving and embodying its deeper wisdom—both as warriors and as stewards of a lineage that reflects the highest ideals of Chinese internal martial traditions.

  • Iron Hand & Advanced Iron Hand Kung Fu

    Iron Hand & Advanced Iron Hand training at our school is a refined internal system that balances power with preservation. Unlike many traditional iron hand practices—which can lead to long-term damage, hardened skin, and joint issues—our approach is designed to strengthen the hands while preserving their sensitivity, dexterity, and overall health, which are essential in internal martial arts.

    This system combines three key methods:

    The Slapping Method

    The Cooking Method

    The Thrusting Method

    Each method targets a different aspect of hand conditioning, and through dedicated, consistent practice, all four sides of the hand are gradually developed to become as resilient as iron. To ensure safety and effectiveness, we recommend a minimum introductory period of 100 days of foundational training to build the base strength and conditioning required for higher-level progression.

    Passed down through two distinct and highly respected lineages, this system is proven to deliver exceptional results. Beyond the physical conditioning, Iron Hand training incorporates internal energy (Qi) work and breathing techniques that cultivate heat and energetic flow in the hands and throughout the body. These developments not only enhance martial performance but also bring health benefits and increased vitality.

    For those not solely focused on combat, the energetic cultivation from Iron Hand training supports meditation, healing practices, and deeper spiritual development. It is a discipline that not only forges strength but also nurtures balance and inner power—making it a valuable pursuit whether your goal is martial excellence or holistic wellbeing.

  • Kali Knife Fighting

    Kali Knife Fighting is a dynamic and highly effective martial art that traces its origins back to India before evolving and flourishing in the Philippines. Today, it shares strong similarities with other Filipino combat arts such as Eskrima and Arnis, all known for their precision, speed, and deadly efficiency with bladed weapons.

    Interestingly, Kali also shares notable parallels with our Chinese Splashing Hands system—a fast-paced open-hand style that later influenced the creation of Lima Lama, developed by my Great Grand Teacher, Sifu Lifiti. Because of these overlaps in movement and philosophy, Kali integrates seamlessly with our Chinese martial arts training.

    My personal journey with Kali began in the UK, and I later traveled to Bulacan in the Philippines to deepen my understanding and respect for this powerful art. What makes Kali so remarkable is its structure: a few core principles expand into a comprehensive fighting system, adaptable for use with single or double blades.

    Training typically begins with the fighting stick, which serves as a stand-in for a blade and allows students to develop technique safely through intense repetition and focused practice. You'll learn to attack from every angle, disable an opponent’s limbs to neutralize the threat, and then target vital areas to end the encounter decisively.

    As you progress, you’ll advance into trapping techniques, takedowns, and disarms, expanding your skill set beyond just striking. Emphasis is placed on developing speed, accuracy, rhythm, and timing—all of which are essential for mastering the blade.

    Kali also incorporates extensive footwork and body conditioning, creating a strong, agile, and responsive practitioner. In its more advanced stages, the principles of Kali can be applied across other combat disciplines, making it an excellent addition to anyone seeking a well-rounded and functional martial arts system.

  • Muay Boran

    Muay Boran, or "Ancient Boxing," is the original martial art from which modern Muay Thai—Thailand’s national sport—evolved. While Muay Thai was adapted in the 1930s for the ring and sporting regulations, Muay Boran remains a complete battlefield art, once used by the King’s Royal Guard to protect the monarch and kingdom.

    This traditional system transforms the entire body into a unified weapon—hands, elbows, knees, feet, shoulders, and hips all working in harmony. At its core, Muay Boran emphasizes strength and precision—both in absorbing strikes and in delivering them. Practitioners are trained to develop an iron body, capable of taking powerful blows to the limbs and torso while staying firmly rooted and ready to unleash devastating counterattacks.

    Training in Muay Boran includes a broad range of combat skills: striking, blocking, grappling, clinch work, and ground techniques. You'll engage in bag work, pad drills, and partner exercises, honing your technique through repetition and real-world application.

    What truly sets Muay Boran apart from its modern counterpart is its traditional footwork and open-hand forms, reminiscent of Chinese martial arts kata. These forms—rich with history and technique—expand your repertoire far beyond the sport-focused methods of modern Muay Thai. Before rules and weight classes existed, combat was raw and unrestricted, and Muay Boran reflects this wider, more versatile approach to self-defense.

    Yet, like all ancient martial arts, Muay Boran is not just about fighting. It is a philosophical path, deeply tied to Thai culture and spiritual development. Through its practice, you will build more than strength or fighting skill—you will cultivate inner resilience, moral character, and self-worth.

    To train in Muay Boran is to walk a path of personal transformation. It is a living legacy of Thailand’s martial history, and a treasure for anyone seeking growth in body, mind, and spirit.

  • Muay Thai Boxing

    Muay Thai, or Thai Boxing, is the modern evolution of Muay Boran, developed in the 1930s to meet the growing need for a more regulated and sport-oriented martial art. Much like how the Queensbury Rules shaped Western boxing, Muay Thai introduced structure and rules that allowed it to flourish as both a national sport and a globally practiced martial art. This transformation opened the doors for widespread training and professional competition, both across Thailand and around the world.

    Today, Muay Thai remains a pillar of Thai culture, with many families dedicating their children to training camps in hopes of earning a livelihood through the sport. At its core, Muay Thai refines and masters the fundamental techniques of Muay Boran, emphasizing power, speed, precision, and resilience.

    As a Muay Thai practitioner, you’ll learn to use the entire body as a weapon: hands, feet, elbows, knees, shoulders, and hips. You’ll develop proficiency in striking, clinch work, takedowns, and strong defensive mechanics. This full-contact style demands physical endurance, mental toughness, and disciplined training.

    In our school, we follow a traditional Thai training camp approach, staying true to the roots of the art to preserve its authenticity and effectiveness. Training includes shadow boxing, bag work, pad drills, clinch and sparring exercises, and progressive conditioning routines that build strength and stamina.

    To ensure steady progress and structure, our courses are designed around a tiered grading system, marked by color rankings. This allows students to track their development clearly while building a solid foundation before advancing to higher levels of practice.

    Whether you're training for fitness, competition, self-defense, or cultural appreciation, Muay Thai offers a complete and deeply rewarding journey. It is a powerful art form with a proud heritage—and one that will challenge and transform you both physically and mentally.

  • Western Boxing

    Western Boxing is a cornerstone of modern martial arts, seen everywhere from local white-collar bouts to the global stage of professional competition. Often referred to as English Boxing, it is one of the most recognised and widely promoted combat sports in the world.

    This system is ideal for self-defence, fitness, and athletic development, offering a powerful way to enhance your conditioning, timing, focus, and coordination. Through a combination of movement drills, punching techniques, and combination work—practised in shadowboxing, on the bags, and with pads—you’ll gain both skill and confidence in the ring or in your daily life.

    Whether you're interested in fully learning the art or simply integrating it into your fitness routine, we tailor each training plan to suit your goals and lifestyle, ensuring you get the most out of every session.

  • Submission Wrestling & Takedowns

    Submission Wrestling and Takedown School offers a powerful introduction to the Western systems of grappling and submissions. While the rise of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has gained much attention in recent years, these traditional wrestling techniques remain essential—whether to enhance your stand-up martial arts or serve as a complete system on their own.

    In this program, you’ll develop the ability to control, submit, and outmaneuver your opponent, building iron grip strength, a rock-solid core, and mental toughness along the way. The fundamentals of takedowns and ground control are practical, effective, and will prepare you to protect yourself in real-life situations.

    Due to the hands-on nature of this art, this course is best suited for those who already attend in-person classes or have a training partner to work with. That said, you’ll still be provided with solo drills designed to improve muscle memory, strength, and conditioning.

    More than just physical combat, wrestling sharpens your mind—teaching strategy, patience, and precision. There’s far more depth here than first meets the eye, and it will shape you into a more capable and resilient martial artist.

  • Ground & Pound Boxing

    Ground & Pound is a highly effective martial arts system and an outstanding tool for fitness. It enhances your stand-up striking by teaching you how to generate power and control from grounded positions, complements submission grappling, and builds elite levels of strength and conditioning. Despite often being seen as just an MMA tactic, Ground & Pound is a complete martial art in its own right.

    One of its biggest advantages is accessibility—you don’t need a hanging bag to train. All you need is a punch bag or large striking pad and a floor. From there, you’ll learn how to pin, control, and dominate your opponent, transitioning through multiple positions and mounts to maintain control and create openings to strike.

    You’ll develop powerful striking using punches, elbows, knees, and shoulder strikes, delivered from top or bottom positions. The training focuses on how to move fluidly around your opponent while keeping pressure on—so you always have the upper hand and prevent them from escaping or standing.

    This system is designed to break through even the toughest ground defenses, offering you an option for dominance on the ground without needing to rely solely on submissions. You'll learn to generate power using your whole body and smart angles, building a robust ground game that makes your stand-up even more dangerous.

    Whether you're training for fighting, self-defence, or raw power, Ground & Pound will toughen your body, sharpen your technique, and add a whole new dimension to your martial skill set.

  • Eight Section Brocade & Healing Sounds Kung Fu

    Eight Section Brocade & Healing Sounds Kung Fu is a system focused entirely on health, vitality, and inner balance. These two ancient practices offer a simple yet powerful daily ritual that, once learned, can bring lasting energy and rejuvenation to the body and mind.

    The Eight Section Brocade works externally, refreshing the body by stimulating the skin, joints, and senses. Through a series of gentle, flowing movements, you’ll improve circulation, flexibility, and overall vitality. The practice begins with what we call a dry bath—a self-massage technique that wakes up the body and activates acupressure meridians to support natural energy flow.

    Complementing this is the Healing Sounds practice, which works internally. By combining breathwork and sound, this method creates deep vibrations throughout the body, stimulating the organs and encouraging internal harmony. These sounds help to rebalance the body’s systems, promoting a sense of peace, grounding, and connection to your surroundings.

    Together, these two systems form a holistic approach to health, offering you a short, sustainable practice that can transform your energy levels and deepen your sense of wellbeing—no matter your age or fitness level.

  • Meditations & Self Awareness

    Meditation & Self-Awareness techniques from around the world offer powerful tools to develop the mind and deepen your connection to yourself and the universe. While the paths may vary—from ancient Eastern traditions to Western esoteric practices—they all begin in the same place: with you, as you are, in this moment. And they all strive toward the same goal—to awaken higher levels of consciousness, clarity, and inner peace.

    Over the years, I’ve dedicated myself to exploring and refining a wide variety of meditative and trance-based practices. These methods have played a vital role not just in sharpening my martial arts ability, but also in enriching my home life, relationships, and everyday choices. The journey inward is just as important as physical training—a strong mind is the foundation for long-term success and true personal power.

    In this course, you’ll be introduced to a diverse collection of systems and practices. Whether drawn from Taoist internal cultivation or Western mystical traditions, we’ll help you discover the methods that best align with your lifestyle and way of thinking. This is more than just relaxation—it’s a path to unlocking your full potential and experiencing life with greater awareness and purpose.

  • Western, Eastern Alchemy & Chinese Psychic Healing

    Western & Eastern Alchemy and Chinese Psychic Healing are lesser-known disciplines within the martial arts world, yet they hold profound significance for those seeking deeper meaning beyond combat. Many traditional martial systems were created not just for physical defense, but as vehicles for philosophical and spiritual growth. In the East, ideals were often formed first, then translated into movement. In the West, practitioners often arrive at these ideals later in their journey, drawn by a desire to understand the greater forces at play within themselves and the universe.

    This course offers a gateway into that deeper knowledge. After all, Kung Fu simply means “skill achieved through effort”—a philosophy that applies equally to the cultivation of mind and spirit. Taoist and Western alchemy are systems of thought designed to help us explore the cosmos and discover our true place within it. Chinese Psychic Healing builds upon this, transforming the refined energy and awareness developed through martial arts into a tool for healing and connection.

    Here, you’ll learn to develop your internal energy and expand your understanding of the conscious and subconscious mind. These practices can help you heal yourself, support those around you, and foster a greater harmony with the world. Whether you're seeking clarity, balance, or transformation, this course reveals how martial practice can become a path to wholeness on every level—physical, mental, and spiritual.
