Where would be good places to train in Hong Kong? What all’s there? Does anyone know?! ![]()
Hong Kong
There’s a large park next to Happy Valley on Hong Kong Island. You have to get there early, say about 6am but you will see many people practicing. Also, behind the the Moslem Mosque on Nathan Rd on Kawloon side. Again, it’s an early call. ![]()
On Kowloon …
A must see is Hong Kong Chin Woo Martial Arts association, at the corner of Nathan and Jordan Road, not far from Kowloon Park. 13 F. Many very good teachers in many styles [Taiji quan, Bagua, liuhebafa, wingchun, san shou, etc…]
Many Wingchun schools, more or less good.
easy to find in yellow pages.
what are you looking for and how long will you stay ?
I’m not sure yet. It all depends on how much ca$h I can save up, lol. I suppose I’d like to get training in something I could learn here too. Taiji, Xingyi, Bagua, Liuhebafa, Hung Gar, Mizong would be my main interests, but really I’ve got axcess to a lot of different styles here. I’m mostly going to visit a friend next year so I might end up not training at all. I just thought I’d do some advance research, just in case ![]()

well at least the Chinwoo is here to stay ![]()
I dunno much of Xingyi in HK but there are probably some teachers.
Hung Gar, … did anyone say Lum Jo school ? ![]()
HK can be very easily an expensive place to stay but if you have a friend that can host you, it should be easier.
Like everywhere else, the longer you stay the more you can learn. Usually westerners can stay in HK up to 3 months without any visa [but can’t work there officially].
May I suggest you to save a bunch of money and once there, focus on MA so you can extend your money life a bit more ![]()
SORRY, i just can use chinese

Well, I’m glad that’s cleared up then!
Basically our new chinese friend asked what Brad wanted to study because he got a lot of contacts.
I feel communication may be an issue here ![]()
And presumably a Chinese character viewer is handy?

reading chinese online
Serpent,
M$ has a chinese fonts pack available for free on its site.
then in MSIE, you just have to select View > Encoding > Chinese [big5] (as the previous poster was from HK, GB if you read characters from Mainland).
Easy, easy
