🥋 Wu Bu Quan 五步拳 – Foundation of Kung Fu Wu Bu Qu 🥋 Wu Bu Quan 五步拳 – Foundation of Kung Fu

Wu Bu Quan, or Five Stance Form, is an important beginner’s form that every student can benefit from. 💪

Wu Bu Quan introduces the 5 fundamental stances of Kung Fu:

1. 弓步 (Gōng Bù) — 🏹 Bow Stance
2. 马步 (Mǎ Bù) — 🐎 Horse Stance
3. 歇步 (Xiē Bù) — ✖️ Rest Stance (also commonly translated as Cross Stance)
4. 仆步 (Pū Bù) — ⬇️ Drop Stance (also called Crouching Stance)
5. 虚步 (Xū Bù) — ⚖️ Empty Stance

These stances form the foundation of Shaolin Kung Fu, developing balance, stability, coordination, and strong body mechanics. 🥋

“You can only build as high up as your foundation is deep.” 🏯

Confidence starts with small victories. 🥋🐉 For ou Confidence starts with small victories. 🥋🐉

For our Little Dragons (ages 4–6), every class is about more than learning martial arts. It’s about building confidence through effort, trying new things, and celebrating progress.

Each new skill they learn, challenge they overcome, and goal they achieve helps them believe in themselves a little more.

Because confident kids grow into confident adults. 💪

What’s one quality you’d love your child to develop through martial arts? 👇

功夫 - Gōng Fu / Kung Fu🥋🔥 Most people think Gong F 功夫 - Gōng Fu / Kung Fu🥋🔥

Most people think Gong Fu just means Chinese martial arts… but it’s more than that.

Gong Fu is any skill built through time, effort, and consistency.

The pianist 🎹 practising for hours.
The chef 👨‍🍳 refining their craft.

It’s the practice no one sees. 👊
It’s the discipline to keep showing up… even when it’s hard. 💯

It’s understanding that mastery takes time.
You can’t rush the process. 🐢

In the Wu Guan, it’s not just how you train—
it’s how you carry yourself every day.

Earned. Not given. 🔥
That’s Gong Fu. 🥋

Great night at World Tai Chi Day 🙏 Had an amazing Great night at World Tai Chi Day 🙏

Had an amazing time performing Shaolin Da Tong Bi Quan at the World Tai Chi Day event.

It’s always an honour to represent traditional Shaolin Kung Fu and share the art with the community. The energy, the performances, and the atmosphere made it a truly special night.

Thank you to Master Yan for inviting me and my team to perform — truly appreciated.

Looking forward to the next one 👊

🥋 Shaolin Da Tong Bi Quan The form we’re focusing 🥋 Shaolin Da Tong Bi Quan

The form we’re focusing on in our classes at the moment is Shaolin Da Tong Bi Quan.

For kids, this form helps develop:
• coordination and balance
• better posture and body control
• focus and listening skills

Rather than just copying movements, children learn how to move their whole body together — building confidence through strong foundations.

Passed down in the Shaolin system through
Shi De Yang, this form supports steady, structured learning — step by step.
