Ching Wu Free-style sports combat

Freestyle Sports Combat:

As the name suggests, provides training for students to develop skills that allow them to compete under any sport combat rules.

Ideal for those who:

• Prefer not to compete but would love to learn new skills. Many choose to be examined / graded  although this is optional. (Grading from beginner to black sash with certificates).

•  Love to compete at local, national or international level.

•  Would like to learn and effective self defence which works at all ranges of combat and develops the appropriate mind set to not be a victim.
  

• Simply wish to get fitter and make new friends in a safe and fun environment under instruction from highly qualified and friendly instructors.   
  

The Manchester Chinese Boxing Academy is a free style combat and sports combat school.    That said, students learn a complete and comprehensive syllabus which provides skills to take part in any martial art competition and provide very effective self defense.  The school has its roots in Manchester's china town where over 20 years ago students were taught a hard form of chinese boxing similar to that used in ancient china where skills from different masters were combined.  Only effective fighting techniques and strategies would be kept within the system and continuously tested in real combat.  So close was our schools way of training and attitude to competing to the original Ching Wu school philosophy in China, that Master Chu leader of the Chinese community in Manchester bestowed the name Ching Wu on to the club.  This was the name of the school where the original masters trained.

The system includes long range skills seen in Kick Boxing and Thai Boxing, medium range skills such as that found in western boxing and shorter range skills such as those of Wing Chun and Chin Na as well as throws and grappling. In addition female and male students learn a Self Defense system which is practical and free from traditional stylised forms and therefore  is quickly and easily put into practice.
