My Experiences at Shaolin Culture

When I was younger I would watch Martial Arts movies with my brothers all the time, everything from Bruce Lee deftly disabling multiple attackers with the angry fluidity of a cornered tiger to Jackie Chan hilariously bumbling his way through one unlikely situation after another. As a woman I wanted to learn to defend myself and have a fun way of exercising and Shaolin Culture offered me that and a lot more.

When you participate in classes you realise that in reality Martial Arts is less flashy and instead very humble, enlightening and constructive experience. You can tell that Shaolin Culture instructors and students are generally concerned with becoming better people and reducing violence in themselves while gaining the confidence to meet all challenges, mental and physical, with skill and efficiency.

Kung Fu provides me that much needed antidote to my static lifestyle of office work. I always find myself feeling even more energetic after classes, ready for my daily routine or a very good night’s sleep!

Tai Chi is commonly misinterpreted to be slow, gentle and easy to learn, this isn’t the case as some movements take years to master and understand. Tai Chi is much more than a sport. It is mostly a philosophy, a discipline and even better, a way of life which has helped me find my physical and mental balance.

Regularly attending classes has allowed me to meet people of all ages, from all walks of life. The students are encouraged to help one another and the ‘no egos’ doctrine maintained in class is especially helpful when practising moves in pairs.

I would recommend both Kung Fu and Tai Chi to anyone as for me it has benefited me in many ways.
