Dear all,

Does anyone know or have experience with this club?
http://www.liverpoolkungfu.com/

From the website, it seems to be have been around for many years, which is probably a good sign.

Do they teach genuine Hung Gar? And is it the complete style, including the Four Pillars, external conditioning, internal training etc.?

Thanks in advance.

google the instructors name, and see if people know him. If alls good then I guess its ok. ?got the name on the website Stephen Ornellas .

from google http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&newwindow=1&q=%22Sifu+Stephen+Ornellas%22&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=

seems like the teacher is part of the chinese business association which means he probably knows a few people int he local chinese community. not that it means much, but guess its better than nothing

there are pictures of jimmy chan from the 70's with well known chow gar and bakmei sifu from liverpools chinese community (one of the biggest and oldest chinese communites in europe). The school has taken part in every chinese new year celebration for decades and in addition sifu chan also taught steve richards amongst others.

In other words it a very legitimate lineage whether its right for you well only one ay to find that out................
