Chinese Kungfu Academy

The Chinese Kungfu Academy, located in Gold Coast, is a sports club that offers training in Kungfu and Tai Chi. With a history dating back to 1958, it is the oldest Kungfu school in Australia. The academy was founded by 9th Degree Grandmaster Henry Sue, who started his martial arts training at the age of 11 in the Praying Mantis Style of Kungfu. He trained under Master Nat Yuen, one of the highest-ranked martial artists in Hong Kong at the time.

Grandmaster Sue has over 56 years of training experience and has been teaching martial arts for over half a century. His teaching style is hands-on, and he personally teaches classes five times a week. He has incorporated the circular 'yin and yang' principles of Tai Chi into his Kungfu style, creating a unique fighting system known as Henry Sue Circular Tong Long. This system emphasises devastating power and incredible speed.

The Chinese Kungfu Academy welcomes students of all ages and fitness levels. Whether you are young or old, in good health or aspiring to be, they have programmes to help you achieve your goals. Their classes include Kungfu, Young Mantis (for kids aged 7-12), Tai Chi, and Lion Dance.

The instructors adhere to a strict code of conduct, ensuring a safe and secure training environment for students.

The Chinese Kungfu Academy is affiliated with several governing bodies, including the Australian Institute of Sport, the Martial Arts Industry Association, and the Australian Kung Fu and Wushu Federation.
