Choy Li Fut Kungfu is a martial art that combines various northern and southern Chinese Kungfu systems. It contains a wide variety of soft and hard techniques, including:

long- and short-range punches
kicks
sweeps and take downs
pressure point attacks
joint locks
grappling

According to Bruce Lee, Choy Li Fut Kungfu is the most effective system for fighting more than one person and is one of the most difficult styles to attack and defend against.

In this class, we aim to improve the flexibility and strength of participants, while learning one of the Choy Li Fut sequences.
