Event details
The Confucius Institute, in association with the Chinese Association of Southampton and the Chinese Students & Scholars Association, are delighted to announce that the Southern Fist Kung Fu course will start on Friday March 8.
Southern-Fist or Nanquan ((南拳) refers to a classification of Chinese martial arts that originates from the south of the Yangtze River in China. The southern styles of Chinese martial arts are characterised by emphasis on short hitting and specific arm movements. It involves vigorous and athletic movements with very stable and low stances, together with extensive hand techniques and vocal shouting.
In this 14-week course, Professor Michael Ng will teach you one of the southern fist sequences and you will also develop your strength and flexibility.
The full course is only £14 and late joiners are welcome.
