Wing Chun Kung Fu in Sydney

 

Happy Monday Everyone!

So, things are starting to wake back up. We’ve had a few of you enquire about when we may physically re-open, the short answer is we actually don’t know. We know as much as is available to you in the media and until recently the NSW government has refused to give a timeline as to when gyms and the likes can open their doors again in our state. Just this morning however, our Premier has stated that she will provide us with a timeline this week. This we are looking forward to hear.

We assume it will be the end of this month, though really do not know. Thank you all for your support and patience, we will keep live streaming schedule as it is with the exception of this Saturday’s 10am which will be pre-recorded, as we are having a couple of nights away up the coast to see family.

Kids classes have been so much fun. They will continue. The timetable will be reduced back to two days a week – Monday and Wednesday at 4pm. Now that school is back it’s time to ease back a little on the Kung Fu so they have time and energy to balance their activities.

What has been apparent is the importance of separating the age groups. So while both classes are open to all ages:

Mondays are targeted toward the over 8’s and Wednesday are targeted toward the under 8’s.

What this means in practice is that:

On Mondays the younger kids will focus and follow on as best they can, they may not understand everything but as long as they do their best, that’s the main thing.

On Wednesdays the older kids will need to practice patience and self discipline – when I’m chatting to the younger kids do some more repetitions of the technique or punching/blocking/footwork combo.

This timetable is starting this week, so tonight’s kids class is directed at the over 8’s and this Wednesday is for the under 8’s.

See you tonight for either Kid’s Kung Fu at 4 or Martial Xfit at 5:15pm!

Cheers,

Amy

 

Hi all!

This afternoons kids and adults classes are pushed back to start at 430 for the over 8’s and 530 for the adults.

See you then!

Thank you everyone for your ongoing support and attendace on our Facebook Livestream and Zoom sessions. Please remember to mute your mic when using Zoom. It’s already muted for you when you join, but if you unmute it to have a chat before class starts, remember to re-mute it when class begins this will ensure the screen remains on the class for everyone throughout the lesson. If you have a question you there is a chat option to type in your message.

Today at 4pm is the first livestream for the kids aged 8 or over, tomorrow is for under 8’s. It will be available both on the kids facebook page and zoom. I will email parents directly today with zoom login details. If you’re a parent who hasn’t received these details by 2pm today, please contact me on 0421637298 or info@redboatkungfu.com

Thanks again everyone! Remember to send through your class requests and questions!

 

Happy Easter everyone!

It’s a beautiful day, we hope you’re all doing something nice with your time!

If you don’t know…which I hope you do… we have been live streaming classes 6 days a week (total of 9 classes) on Facebook and Zoom. It’s open to all active students at Redfern and Wing Chun Renegade members on Red Boat University. If you are an actively subscribing member of either please email us if you don’t have the Zoom links to classes (I did email everyone who are still paying their fees last week, so please check your junk mail too). The Facebook link is: https://www.facebook.com/groups/rbkflivestream/ Simply follow the link and request to join the group. For Zoom email us for the link.

We were after feedback on live streaming kid’s classes but have only heard back from a very small number of parents. A probable streaming time that can be maintained consistently would be 4pm weekdays, 2 days for under 8’s and 2 days for over 8’s. If you are a parent of a child who trains here, please let us know if this is suitable as we would like to get started ASAP.

 

 

 

Zoom and Facebook Live Stream tomorrow for the 7:30am and 12:15pm classes.

If you are maintaining your fees during the lockdown and have not yet received your Zoom link please email info@redboatkungfu.com ASAP.

Awesome workout this morning, we had 20 of you legends with us! Had a chat too about why we chose Wing Chun/this Wing Chun.

Lunch class today is a super revision of this week’s training.

Next class is tomorrow at 10am Sydney time.

There is currently a bit of a disconnect between what we are doing via livestream and what we are releasing on the Uni. If you are missing out on the livestreams because you are not on Facebook, don’t worry, you will be getting them soon! In the meantime, here’s a workout of the week to keep you moving.

See you on the mat!

Hi guys,

Tomorrow morning 7:30am is Fight Fit – a combination of Tabatas, Crossfits and strength work.

12:15 lunch class is a recap of the week’s training – forms, chi sau, blocking, frames head movement and combat techniques. So, a full mixed-bag at lunch, expect a full hour.

See you on the mat guys, can’t wait.

Facebook livestream: https://www.facebook.com/groups/rbkflivestream/

Thank you everyone for your support! We had a couple of fantastic park workouts before the new lockdown restrictions have further limited us to max 2 from same household training. We’re averaging 10 people watching (and hopefully training!) our livestream live. If you miss it you can watch it later as it’s saved in our Facebook group RBKF Live Stream. It’s been great touching base with you all every morning.

Something that we have mentioned in the live stream is, now is a great opportunity for you to ask questions and make requests. We can tailor our classes for you. So send in your requests on Facebook or info@redboatkungfu.com

We started recording for Kid’s Kung Fu yesterday, we’re still working on the format so would love some feedback from parents. Parents please join our Red Boat Kids group page to view the lessons. At present we are not live streaming for the kid’s classes but are pre-recording them both for Facebook and what will be a new membership/course on Red Boat University. They are set out in 3 sections/3 seperate videos: 1, workout; 2, technical (looking at strikes, forms or a technique); and 3, defensive training – so blocks, footwork and self defense strategy or defense focused techniques. Please offer your feedback.

We miss you all!!!
