Philosophy: First and foremost, Sung Chuan Kung Fu is a Martial Art not a sport. Hence, we accord it the respect due to a Martial Art. Students are expected to obey certain rules of courtesy and good behaviour. Students and instructors are required to show each other due respect. Egos are strictly to be left outside of the training hall. We teach Chinese Martial Arts in a traditional and sincere manner, but with constant regard to practical and effective technique. Our philosophy is
Respect yourself and each other other!
