Defne from Italy - 2025 June short term course
Email : behardefne@gmail.com
My training in the Kung fu school of Japan Osaka has truly been an irreplaceable experience that I will cherish for a very long time. Kathy has ensured that everything goes smoothly and assisted me greatly since my arrival. Once training started, it did not take long for me to realise that Shi-fu is literally the coolest person ever and I am very grateful to have gotten the opportunity to learn from him.
He has a very kind way of spreading his wisdom and his effective teaching style ensures progress in each student. The training included a wide range of teachings such as tai chi, kung fu forms, acrobatics, sanda and self-defence. Accordingly, I now have a better understanding of chi as well as a whole new set of combat skills.
Additionally, the warm and international atmosphere among the students made it a beginner friendly experience with enough leisure time to rest, enjoy the hotsprings in the evenings and visit nearby cities during the weekends. Overall, being able to learn from Shifu, a true kung fu master with astonishing wisdom, kindness, patience and skill, is an experience I would advise to anyone interested in martial arts.
I would like to thank him and my fellow students for accompanying me in my short journey with shaolin kung fu.
Defne is on the right.
