Kung Fu Club
Are you looking to develop your confidence? Improve your health and fitness, and learn self-defence while staying calm? Improve your ability to focus and concentrate? The RMIT Kung Fu Club can help you achieve these in a fun and social environment.
Formed in 1975, the RMIT Kung Fu club has a long and proud tradition of excellence in martial arts instruction.
Classes are expertly supervised by highly qualified instructors from the Barry Pang Kung Fu Schools. Our Head Instructor Sifu Barry Pang is the ‘Pioneer of Kung Fu’ in Australia and is the recipient of the Blitz Hall of Fame Kung Fu Tribute Award; the most prestigious award in Australia today. His wife Anne Pang is the only female to be inducted into the Blitz Hall of Fame with a Tribute Award, with unparalleled experience as a Women's Self Defence Instructor and Australasian Kung Fu Champion. Both Barry and Anne are Registered Coaches by the Australian National Council and are Licensed Martial Arts Instructors by the Martial Arts Board.

Note that due to renovations at RMIT, we will be moving from our usual training location in building 8 temporarily from September 16th. We will be training in the RMIT Multifaith and Wellbeing centre, which is located at 8 Orr St, Carlton. This is RMIT building 47, level 3. We expected that renovations will last approximately 2 months.

Testimonials
"I started training with the Kung Fu club back in
1998, at the beginning of my undergrad study. The physical and mental
discipline of learning a martial art has benefits that go far beyond learning
to kick or punch. Being healthier and more resilient helps you to manage the
(many!) challenges you'll encounter at uni and beyond, and the network of
contacts you'll make is more valuable than any subject you'll ever study. Many
of the friends I've made through the club have become like family over the years."
Do I need a uniform?
There is no uniform requirement for new members. It is suggested that new members wear lightweight clothing (shirt and pants) that is easy to move around in. Shoes are worn during class, so runners or similar are recommended.
