Summer Camp
We host an annual summer camp abroad for a duration of 8-10 days. The camps allow students to have intensive training with our instructors, leaders and affiliated branch leaders. The hours trained is equivalent to around 3 months of normal training with the approach we take.
We go back to basics -combining intense Wing Tsun training, traditional Kung Fu exercises, and challenges which will test your mind, and ability to react under pressure.
This essentially is an old school Wing Tsun training camp. The ultimate goal is to sharpen your skills as well as make you fitter, stronger, faster and more knowledgeable in all areas of the art. But also, to experience what it would have been like to live amongst Kung Fu masters, brothers and sisters. To train with them, and work with them daily just like you would have in ancient China but with some modern challenges and games. We will live as a Kung Fu family and we will train like warriors.
Each student will be assigned a squad that they will be working with throughout the week. This enables students to get to know each other better and work together as a team. The highest achieving squad at the end of the week will be named winners and their names will be engraved on the Summer Camp plaque.
“Relax and calm your mind. Forget about yourself and follow your opponent's movement”

Training Information
The summer camp training is not like regular training in the schools, the purpose of the camp is to take you out of your comfort zone and to push you beyond your boundaries. To excel to a new level of heightened skill you must be disciplined and think like a martial artist.
For you to get the most out of the training you need to approach it with the appropriate mentality. Focus, do not give up, and push yourself further then you have ever done so before. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to really see what you can do if you consistently work hard for an intense period of time.
The instructors organise an all encompassing training schedule, and our goal is that you leave the summer camp fitter, faster, and stronger both mentally and physically.
The Camp is always somewhere that is occupied solely by us so that we have the capacity to run our programs and so that we can taste a little bit of history. Traditionally to learn Kung Fu on a deeper level you would have to live in a Monastery and dedicate your life to the teachings. At the camp, we live together, train together under a strict schedule and face challenges together.
