I was a student of Sifu Lam Tu Luan many years ago and I have such fond memories of my time there. I had to move to a different part of Australia for work,

Nice big open space with fresh new equipment for both traditional Jow Ga Kung Fu training and your more modern day martial arts training. Great place to not only learn self-defence, but also improve your fitness.

Kungfu for

Body & Mind

The Chinese concept of yin and yang describes exactly how seemingly opposite forces may actually be interconnected. Kung Fu is similar because it works on the principle that our minds and bodies each exert a great influence on the other.

In the same way, the LTL Kung Fu School teaches individuals how to improve both their physical and mental health by understanding the connection between the two. It’s all about coordination and finding balance in both movement and in life.

That’s why our Jow Ga Kung Fu classes go way beyond simply inspiring you to get fit; they’re also about developing your inner self and training your mind to be calm.

Here at the LTL Kung Fu School, our ultimate goal is the development of the individual as a whole.

We teach students of all ages to train their mind and body to work in harmony, encouraging peak performance and allowing them to live the best life possible.

Self Defence

Centuries ago, when your life may well have depended on it, Kung Fu was a way to train yourself to become a deadly fighter.

Today, Kung Fu is still a highly respected method of self defence and is an effective way to give individuals of all ages a true sense of confidence in their personal safety.Sifu Luan, master of the Lam Tu Luan Kung Fu School, specialises in teaching Jow Ga, one of the most popular and practical fighting styles of this ancient form of martial arts.

Incorporating elements of both southern and northern Chinese Shaolin styles, Jow Ga combines speed and power with the grace and beauty of flowing circular movements.

Safety of the individual is a key focus of the Lam Tu Luan Kung Fu School. The techniques and movements are very powerful, but Kung Fu practitioners should not use their skills to attack another person.

Rather, they should be used as a form of self-defence.When you know you can defend yourself, you can live without fear.

Kungfu for

Fitness

When you combine the many movements of traditional Kung Fu with modern-day equipment and learning techniques it results in a really focused all-over body workout that increases endurance and muscle strength.

When you join a class, you’ll recognise many familiar exercises similar to those you’ll see in a gym. By incorporating these with Kung Fu style movements, you achieve more flexibility and move with heightened grace and discipline, conditioning your body as a whole.

And, because Jow Ga Kung Fu has its origins in the Shaolin style, there are mental and emotional advantages to training that address the ‘fitness’ level of your mind.

By developing self-confidence and inner peace, your mood is lifted and your overall sense of wellness and life balance becomes greater.
