Bruce Lee’s Art of Jeet Kune Do.
Jeet Kune-Do or JKD as it is commonly referred by is a mix of open hand and weapon based  training to give you the tools to deal with one or more attackers, standing up,  on the ground or if a weapon is involved. 
 
Jkd is particularly effective for “non martial artists” as the skills you develop are directly applicable to self protection, and can be used without the years of training that some classical martial arts require to install the automatic responses from blocks and punches, and In these increasing times of trouble, are skills that everybody should have to hand.

Classic tiger kung fu is a very old chinese martial art that can be traced back centuries. Its movements are based on the powerful movements of a tiger, but also has close links with other animal systems including Monkey, Snake, Fish, Lion, Dragon and others. Tiger is primarily a close range art with several grabbing and striking techniques, but also utilises some longer range moves as well. It emphasizes circular movement and uses both internal and external strength.
Tuesday - 7:00pm - 8:00pm £5 per lesson
