While Hung Leng Kuen is a modern style, beginners may find it familiar if they have experience in comparable styles such as Wing Chun, Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do, Shaolin Long Fist, Choy Gar, Chinese boxing, or Muay Thai. The style takes influences from Fu Jow Pai, Tai Chi Chuan, Preying Mantis, Pak Mae, Choy Lee Fut, Pak Qua, Ba Gwa Chang, and other modern fighting systems.
The club prides itself on having a peaceful and sociable environment where both teachers and students can thrive. To encourage new students to join, Hung Leng Kuen Kung Fu offers a first lesson free voucher that can be downloaded and printed from their website.
The club also has a gallery page on their website that showcases various forms, form work, stretching exercises, pad work, sparring, and more. This gives prospective students a glimpse into the training and techniques taught at the club.
