If you decide to take an Instructor training program you'll want to know that it’s the best, and that it has been developed by a qualified Instructor with many years' experience in the Chinese Martial Arts. And that the certification received will be recognised nationally and internationally.

Very few organisations can offer the same quality of direct lineage styles in such an affordable package. Our Instructor Training program is geared to meet the needs of today's martial artists. Our aim is to bring to more people the benefits of training in Chinese Martial Arts. Would be instructors have the opportunity to obtain first class instruction at a reasonable price with certification and the backup of an International Organisation.

After an initial period of training, qualifying students will become junior instructors and able to open a branch in their area thus removing any financial burden from further study. The prospective instructor can gain the required qualifications as quickly as they want there is no time limit on learning.
