chrisI am a great believer in PMA (Positive Mental Attitude) which has helped me in many aspects of my life of which I am fortunate to pass on those learnings to all students that take up the Chinese martial art Lau Gar Kung Fu.  It has given me the tools to support, mentor and inspire children and adults of all ages.  At the Pro Martial Arts gym, you can experience a family orientated and disciplined approach in all the classes taught, which creates an ideal environment for students to be relaxed and learn kickboxing.

Experience: I have 27 years of experience in Lau Gar Kung Fu and Kicboxing and I’m a 5th degree black belt.
Heroes: Tracy Edghill and Bruce Lee

instructor2Training in Martial Arts can really provide many benefits to our lives.  Not only the obvious improvements to your physical health/wellbeing and your self-defence skills, but it can also take you on a higher spiritual journey and develop your resilience and self-confidence to be able to work through whatever challenge comes your way in life.  This is what we want for all our students.

You are unique and the Lau Gar system allows each student to develop at your own pace, based on the effort you put in.  Like me, you can be assured that all our instructors are passionate about helping you to progress and be the best you can be.
