Choy Li Fut Kungfu course
On November 24, 2023, the Choy Li Fut Kungfu course of the Chinese martial arts series at the ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ Confucius Institute finished its 8-week course. The course was jointly organised by the Confucius Institute at the ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ, the ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ Chinese Association, and the Chinese Students and Scholars Association. The instructor was Professor Michael Ng, a professor at the School of Electronics and Electrical Engineering at the ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ and the president of the ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ Chinese Association.
Throughout this popular course, participants not only acquired specific martial arts techniques but also experienced the charm of Chinese martial arts culture.
One participant said: I would like to personally thank Professor Michael Ng for giving us his time to teach a unique form of martial arts. Participants contributed to a welcoming and encouraging environment where their fitness, flexibility and coordination was improved through combination drills in the basic steps of Choy Li Fut. It is a pity that these classes have come to an end - they were most enjoyable.
