I've been going to Kung Fu Schools Crawley for 2 years now and I love it. Joining was one of the best decisions of my life. The atmosphere is friendly yet focused and there is none of the macho nonsense I was worried about when looking for a martial arts school. If you want to have fun while building confidence, skill and a wider understanding of what the human body is capable of then definitely try out Wing Chun and try it out here. I'd recommend to anyone of all shapes, sizes and backgrounds.

The Kung fu school is such a great place and the Teachers are so supportive and friendly. My 5 years old girl joined the school last year and she absolutely loves it , and has gained so much confidence and focus from the kung Fu classes . Nick, Dani and Tom are very good with the children and extremely patient . The School is so positive and everyone is so welcoming . Following the Positive experience of my Daughter I joined the adult class with Sifu Paul Hawkes . I remember being very intimidated walking into the class as I have never done anything like it but Sifu Paul put me at ease straight
