What Our Students Say

I cannot recommend the Norwich Kung Fu Academy enough! Both Sifu Ringer and Sifu Will are excellent teachers that make you feel welcomed from the very first session. They guide you through all the forms and weapons with clear and simple instructions and help you build on your techniques week after week. If you are looking for classes that will help you understand and develop self-defence along with the wisdom and discipline that surrounds Kung Fu then this is the place to be. The classes are always engaging and friendly and what I have learned so far is invaluable!

We've had a great two years at the Norwich Kung Fu Academy. My son has made a huge amount of progress and loves attending the sessions. The teachers have a great approach and create a safe environment for young people to really thrive.

My time so far with Norwich Kung Fu has been invaluable. The instructors are not only encouraging, welcoming and friendly but have also done immeasurable help in assisting me with my training and made it incredibly accessible. I could not recommend these guys enough truly. Affordable and invaluable.

Looking to reignite my martial arts journey, I discovered Norwich Kung Fu Academy and quickly realised it was exactly what I’d been searching for. The academy offers a strong foundation in traditional Kung Fu while seamlessly blending modern self-defence techniques. Combined with Qigong and guided meditation, it highlights that the training is as much about philosophy and mindfulness as it is about hand to hand combat. Sifus Will & Ringer are great instructors. Knowledgeable, approachable, inclusive and able to make each session both challenging and genuinely enjoyable. I can’t recommend Norwich Kung Fu Academy highly enough.

My 10 yr old son has been attending for over two years. He enjoys learning the skills taught and fitness training provided. He finds the teachers very approachable, knowledgeable and also playful.

Norwich Kung Fu Academy is a fun place to learn martial arts, mindfulness and improve your coordination and fitness. The instructors are great, very knowledgeable, encouraging and make the classes fun, through telling plenty of jokes!!! To begin with, I was hesitant to start the 1-month free trial period, as I wasn’t sure if it was going to be for me, and also if I’d be able to physically keep up with the exercises in class. However, I’ve now been regularly attending classes for the past 7 months, and have noticed a great improvement in my fitness, coordination and general well being. For anyone who’s unsure about whether or not to give it a go, I would highly recommend taking the 1-month free trial period, and see how you feel at the end. I think you’ll enjoy it!

The academy has been brilliant for my daughter and given her a passion for kung-fu . The teaching is excellent and progression is rigorous. Im really impressed and would highly recommend

The Kung Fu academy have been both welcoming and patient with my daughter as she has progressed through her belts and she always looks forward to her lessons each week.

Norwich Kungfu academy is absolutely fantastic. Very friendly and inspiring instructors. The course is extremely well thought out, containing both unarmed and weapon forms, which become more complex as you progress. In addition you’ll learn some Qui Gong, in each module together with an inspiring and really interesting meditation at the end and the class, providing emotional wisdom to complement the combat skills.

What a fantastic academy. Both our boys have thrived since attending and being there has even had a positive affect on us parents too. The classes are well put together with lots of humour that keeps children and parents engaged throughout. Both Sifu Bridgeman and Sifu Ringer (and their fantastic helpers Ethan and Graham) are kind and patient with everyone who attends the classes , whatever their age or ability. The prices are really affordable and we would 100% recommend for children and adults alike.

Absolutely love training at Norwich Kung Fu Academy. Having never done martial arts before I've found the lessons brilliantly structured to get you up to speed quickly. I really enjoy the balance of technique, application, fitness and psychology that the classes teach. I'd recommend this to anybody. Very accessible, very inclusive great fun!

Definitely one of the best places to learn Kung Fu in Norwich. They go at an easy pace that's easy to pick up if you've never done martial arts before. I would recommend for adults and children, my son who's now a black belt really likes going and is always upset if he can't attend. They are really good with children, quite a few of my son's friends also go regularly.

I’m so glad I decided to take a journey into martial arts with these guys. The instruction is both supportive and inclusive allowing people of all ages and backgrounds to be become their best selves. A great mix of wisdom, mindfulness and self-defence. Highly recommended to anyone who wants to work towards leading a better life.
