Ealing Kung Fu School An authentic martial art for beginners of all ages. Classes in Nam Pai Chuan are suitable for everyone. In sports, competition is often the focus.

This well-established school brings together a diverse group of people from all walks of life. There are many reasons why people initially begin training with us; often it is to improve general health and fitness, or to learn a practical form of self-defence. For those that persevere it can become an addictive and rewarding way of life. Our classes offer a unique way of keeping fit that is enjoyable and something to look forward to rather than a chore. Nam Pai Chuan is an authentic Chinese martial art, a form of Shaolin Kung Fu with a rich tradition and history which has been around for hundreds of years. It is an effective system which has withstood the test of time. The syllabus is challenging but progressive, it is structured in such a way that individuals will always feel a sense of achievement from the outset. The style’s foundation consists of traditional training methods and drills, which encompasses modern fitness techniques and real life application in order to deliver a pragmatic and comprehensive system. Nam Pai Chuan is not a sport and not competition orientated; it is very much a family art that supports your individual needs. Everybody is different; all of us have different reasons for training. Our teachers recognise this and invest considerable time and energy into helping people achieve their personal goals. Unlike competitive sports your health and skill can continue to improve with age and experience. There are no young masters. Our instructors have a wealth of knowledge to ensure you have the best possible experience. Training with us can just be a hobby, or if desired, provide a positive environment to develop you physically and mentally. It’s always difficult to take the first step and attend a class, it can be intimidating. Remember we have all shared this initial experience and survived. The journey thereafter can be short or long, but one you will never regret. Beginners are always welcome; we look forward to meeting you.

YANG STYLE TAI CHI CHUAN

After a 2-year hiatus, Tai Chi and Qigong classes restart next month from 7th October. They will take place on Wednesday evenings 6:30-7:30pm at Drayton Manor High School in Hanwell W7.

I will be introducing a different teaching format which will involve classes synchronising with the seasons – hence the name change to “Four Seasons Tai Chi”.

Each season will have a different emphasis and harmonise with that distinct time of year, complimenting the changing weather / temperature to maximise the health benefits.

Tai Chi Chuan (Supreme Ultimate Fist) will remain the core ongoing practice, but other complimentary arts (internal and external) will be taught alongside so that classes are continuously evolving and challenging.

I have practiced authentic Yang Style Tai Chi for over 25 years and highly recommend for anyone who desires good health, vitality, and longevity.

Tai Chi and related Chinese exercises have wide-ranging benefits for many health disorders – the largest review of its kind confirms the evidence for this, as summarised in this recent Guardian article:

www.theguardian.com/society/2026/aug/24/largest-review-of-its-kind-confirms-benefits-of-tai-chi-and-other-chinese-exercises

If curious, why not give it a try! Or if you know anyone else who might be interested, please share these details to help spread the word.

To welcome new students, I’m offering the month of October (4 classes) for free! On the condition you pay for November by the 7th October trial session. Any questions get in touch.

THE QUEST

We live and we learn.
We live yet we yearn.

Some of us know not what we seek.
Some seek that elusive knowledge which eludes us like a Chimera.

How many realise that what stands in our way is our own "humanness” that imprisons us in the only existence that we know – that of the body and not the mind.

Body without Mind is a carcass.

Mind leading the body is superior intellect.
