What is Nam Wah Pai?

Nam Wah Pai (which means "Southern Chinese Art") is a Chinese style martial art introduced into New Zealand from Singapore in 1979 by the late Master Steve Kitson, 7th degree Black Belt.

New students learn the external concepts such as flexibility, kicking, punching, katas and free sparring. Senior students additionally learn weapon katas and internal strength, practiced by breaking wooden boards, and concrete slabs and bricks. Tai Chi is practised to provide a soft balance to the hard style of kung fu.

Nam Wah Pai is suitable for everyone, young or old, male or female. As well as being a powerful form of self-defence, with both physical and mental conditioning and relaxation, Nam Wah Pai is also extremely good exercise for the whole body
