Children practising Kung Fu stances with a Bamboo Studios instructor in Warwickshire

New classes · After October half term

Kids martial arts classes coming to Warwickshire.

Genuine Lau Gar Kung Fu for children — building confidence, coordination, focus and resilience in a calm, friendly, completely un-intimidating environment. Our first public classes launch after October half term.

The classes

A traditional martial art.
A modern approach.

Our children's classes follow the Lau Gar Kung Fu syllabus. Children aren't simply being entertained for an hour — they are learning a genuine martial art through progressive training, repetition, technique and discipline.

Every session has a shape: warm-up, fundamentals, technique, partner work and a close. Children know what is expected of them, and they can see exactly what they are working towards.

Classes are open to complete beginners. No experience, no kit and no confidence required on day one — that's the part we build.

Launching soon

New Warwickshire classes are planned to begin after October half term, around Warwick, Leamington Spa and the surrounding area. Founding Families hear venues and timetables first and get priority booking.

What children gain

More than kicks and blocks.

Confidence

Standing tall, speaking up and trying things that once felt out of reach.

Coordination

Balance, timing and control developed through repetition and technique.

Fitness

Strength, stamina and mobility built through movement they actually enjoy.

Discipline

Clear expectations, routine and self-control from the first bow to the last.

Focus

Sustained attention that carries into school, homework and home life.

Resilience

Learning that progress comes from correction, effort and repetition.

Self-control

Understanding power, restraint and respect for others.

Practical skills

Real technique and awareness, taught calmly and responsibly.

Progression

A syllabus with visible milestones and belts to work towards.

Community

A room of children learning together, encouraging each other.

Children aged 3–4 can start even earlier with Nursery Ninjas, our 12-week early years programme.
