This is my second time living and training at Kunyu Shan and once again it has been a positive and rewarding experience. All the masters here are very helpful and are keen to help students improve their kung fu no matter what their level. My thanks unparticular go to master Guo who was very patient and kind when teaching me Baji and Wing Chun. He is an excellent teacher and I hope to study with him again in the future. Other than that the standard of the school is excellent and I look forward to returning to continue my training.

After staying at Kunyu Shan Martial Arts Academy for 9 months I feel both excited and sad to be going home. Sad because I have made so many good friends with the pupils, masters and staff and because I will miss the tranquil and beautiful place that has become like a home to me. However I feel excited to be torturing with new skills that I have learnt here, when I arrived my fitness was generally pretty good but my flexibility was horrible. As well as becoming much more flexible. Training here improves your strength agility and coronation as well. This is taught through a combination daily exercise in forms, sanda(Chinese kick-boxing),and general flexibility and strength training. The training students receive from masters is top class. If there are any questions or problems students are encouraged to go straight to their master, which provides a good atmosphere in the school. Also if students wish to learn any form or skill master will point them in that particular direction.

The conditions are pretty basic but the school is improving as it grows. My advice to any new students is to work on stamina and flexibility before coming to the academy. This will ease the transition into daily training. Also paying extra attention to basic skill while here is important. I must covey a huge amount of respect and thanks to my master, Du Shifu. His patience and kind help made it possible to achieve what I wanted here; I hope to train with you again some day. My thanks also to Su and Wei Shifu for helping me Taichi, a practice I will treasure. Finally thank you to all the staff at the academy especially the translators——Gary, Joy, Louis, Cathy, without? you all, I would be literally lost for words.
